Surviving Harmattan Season: 7 Essential Items You Need

As the harmattan season approaches with its distinctive hot, dust-laden wind and cold nights, it’s time to prepare for the challenges it brings. Harmattan is known for causing dry skin, chapped lips, hair thinning, dehydration, and respiratory problems. To navigate this season comfortably, here are seven must-have items to include in your survival kit:

1. Water Bottle: Staying hydrated is crucial, especially during the harmattan season. The dryness can lead to dehydration, making it essential to carry a water bottle wherever you go.

2. Body Oil or Vaseline: Combat dry, flaky skin by keeping Vaseline or body oil on hand. Moisturize areas prone to dryness, such as your arms, elbows, knees, shins, ankles, and feet, to prevent skin cracking and whiteness.

3. Lip Gloss: Chapped lips can be uncomfortable and unattractive. Carry a tube of lip gloss to keep your lips moisturized and avoid dryness. Quick and easy to reapply, lip gloss ensures your lips stay soft and appealing.

4. Shoe Brush: Harmattan dust can make your carefully polished shoes dirty. To maintain your style, keep a shoe brush handy to clean your shoes and preserve your overall look.

5. Warm Clothes: The morning and evening harmattan winds are cold and dry. Stay warm by wearing suitable clothing like sweaters, jackets, joggers, and socks.

6. Sunglasses: Protect your eyes from dust and intense sun rays, especially during the afternoon. Harmattan brings clear skies, making sunglasses essential to shield your eyes from the sun’s glare.

7. Hair Bonnet: The harsh harmattan weather can lead to frizz and hair breakage. Safeguard your hair with a satin hair bonnet, helping retain moisture and prevent damage.

By having these essential items, you’ll be well-equipped to face the challenges of the harmattan season. Enjoy your festive period with greater comfort and convenience.
