How to care for your skin during Fallas in Valencia: professional guide before and after the festivities
Fallas in Valencia is one of the most intense times of the year: fireworks, mascletĂ s, makeup, sun and many hours outdoors.
But while you're enjoying yourself, your skin is exposed to smoke, UV radiation, dehydration and lack of rest.
In this professional guide we explain how to care for your skin before, during and after Fallas to avoid breakouts, sensitivity and dullness.
Why does your skin suffer more during Fallas?
During Fallas in Valencia, several factors combine to disrupt the skin's balance:
Smoke and fireworks
They increase oxidative stress and accelerate skin aging.
Prolonged sun exposure
Even in March, UVA radiation penetrates deeply and promotes dehydration.
Wearing makeup for many hours
If not removed properly, it can clog pores and trigger breakouts.
Lack of sleep
Cell regeneration occurs mainly at night. Sleeping less directly affects skin repair.
The usual result after Fallas is:
- Dull skin
- Sensitivity
- Congested pores
- Increased reactivity
Minimal routine to protect your skin during Fallas
If you're looking for a simple but effective routine, these are the essential steps.
Morning routine
- Antioxidant serum (vitamin C or polyphenols)
- Light moisturizer
- SPF 50 sunscreen (reapply if you're outdoors for many hours)
Night routine
- Double cleanse (oil + gentle cleanser)
- Repairing or soothing serum
- Nourishing cream to reinforce the skin barrier
Internal care that also affects your skin
Skin condition doesn't depend solely on cosmetics. During Fallas it's recommended to:
- Sleep at least 7 hours when possible
- Drink 1.5–2 liters of water
- Reduce alcohol intake
- Eat antioxidant-rich foods
- Allow makeup-free days if you notice sensitivity

If you identify these signs, a professional assessment is recommended to prevent the problem from persisting.
