Managing Melasma During Hot Weather

I’ve been struggling with melasma for a while, and I’ve noticed that it tends to worsen with rising temperatures, despite my consistent use of SPF. It’s really frustrating because I love spending time outdoors in the summer, but the heat seems to trigger more dark spots on my skin. I’ve experimented with various sunscreens and even tried layering my makeup for a radiant look, but it often feels like a never-ending challenge.

I’ve read that heat can boost melanin production, which makes sense. For anyone else dealing with melasma, do you notice a similar pattern during hotter months? I’m eager to hear any tips or products you’ve found helpful in minimizing the impact of heat on your skin.

Also, I’m curious about makeup—do you think certain products might make melasma worse? I enjoy using glowy bases, but I wonder if they could be contributing to the issue. Let’s share our experiences and solutions—what works for you?
