Ladies, hydrate! This is the quintessence of winter skin care - in the summer we complain about greasy skin, whereas now we have the exact opposite; uncared for skin can lead to premature wrinkles and blemishes. If you want to keep your skin young and healthy, make sure you take some extra time to nourish it throughout winter. Here are some tips:
1. Drink lots of water. It all starts from the inside - you skin may look gorgeous on the outside, but if it doesn't come from within, it won't last. Water hydrates your skin on a deeplevel, meaning, if you make sure to drink at least two liters of liquid per day, your skin will be grateful on a long term.
2. Exfoliate. It has to be done at least two times a week, with proper products, whether you opt for commercialized goods or home-made masks. You can find quality scrubs everywhere, as long as you know where to search. You can opt for products such as Clinique's Exfoliating scrub, The Body Shop's Seaweed Pore - Cleansing Facial Exfoliator, Philosophy's The Microdelivery exfoliating wash or home
made cucumber based masks.
3. Hydrate. After baths and showers, make sure you nourish your skin with some quality body milk and face cream. You can opt for Neutrogena's Deep moisture body lotion, for example.
4. Take good care of your lips. Always have some lip balm in your pocket, because your lips will suffer the most throughout the winter, being permanently exposed to the harsh weather conditions. If your lips become very dehydrated and normal balms don's seem to work anymore, try applying honey masks and keep yourself from eating it. You can opt for Nivea or Himalaya lip care products, for example.
5. Take care of your hands. Throughout winter, your hands suffer almost as much as your lips, therefore be careful to apply some glycerin-based hand cream at least once a day.
In addition, make sure your diet contains a lot of fruits and vegetables rich in water (such as broccoli, watermelons, and cucumbers) and stay away from saturated fats. If you have problems with premature aging or if wrinkles are already starting to take their toll on your skin, you could consider getting a facial once in a while - as long as you turn to such methods with moderation, there's no problem in a chemical peeling or an intense cleansing session. Stay away from unnatural sunlight and protect the area around your eyes by always wearing sunglasses when it's sunny outside!
