Do you have a combination lifestyle—you’re not completely inactive, but you’re not especially active either? Life balance for you may mean you relax and rest when you’re tired and go outdoors for activities when it’s necessary.  The best way to keep your skin healthy, if you prefer a combo mambo, is to prepare for changes in the new environment or in the level of your activities.
Let’s say you’re planning your next vacation. You choose a place where you intend to venture out for most of the day into a hotter, drier climate than you’re used to. Sunscreen is as necessary as that bottle of water you carry, and you need to apply the sunscreen as often as recommended. It’s even better if your sunscreen is also a moisturizer, or the other way around.
What if your travels take you to an indoor climate, say, perhaps to a conference or seminar? The setting may be an air-conditioned room and, let’s make it more interesting, stress-packed conditions. You may not be able to lighten up the mood, but this is a good time to lighten up your moisturizer application.  Cleanse first, of course; but you knew that.
