Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi, welcome to HCM,
skin type changes with environmental condition. it may be normal or oily in summer may becomes dry in winter. As your skin becomes dry in middle east, stop applying basan. Wash your face with glycolic acid containing face wash. Apply white soft paraffin and light liquid paraffin twice daily.
Dont go out in sun. wash your face with normal water 2-3 times a day.
Apply sunscreen with SPF 30 every two hours in day time.
Hope this will help you.
Thanks
