Are you battling winter dry skin? If you are still following the same skin-care routine year-round, try switching your habits/products to bring moisture back to your skin.
- Drink Water. Hydrate your skin from within by drinking lots of water.
- Bath time. Make it a quick one and use luke warm water. Hot water drys out your skin. Warm water with a gentle cleanser helps resuscitate weather-worn skin. Pat your skin dry, don’t rub it. Then, moisturize your skin while it’s still damp.
- Exfoliate & Moisturize. To help your skin get the benefits of moisturizer, first exfoliate. Exfoliation removes the dead skin cells that sit on top of your skin. Follow with a daily moisturizer that contains shea butter. For an extra moisture treatment, try a sugar or salt scrub once or twice a week. Then apply moisturizer on damp skin to seal in moisture. If you feel your skin is still dry after 10 minutes... apply more! To soothe dry hands, try a spa hand paraffin treatment. These can be purchased at home stores inexpensively.
- Humidify. Put moisture back into the air. A humidifying system can help your skin remain supple instead of cracked and dry. You can buy a humidifier from your local drug store.
- Sunscreen. No matter the season, sunscreen is still a must. Use a sunscreen with at least an SPF of 15 or more. This will protect your skin from the elements. Alternatively, choose a product can combines a sunscreen with a moisturizer.
