Exfoliate. A good
facial exfoliant will help remove dead skin cells. We recommend exfoliating
once or twice a week.
Purchase an oil based
moisturizer. To protect your skin from moisture loss, an ointment that
contains 80 percent oil will keep skin feeling soft.
Invest in a quality
pair of gloves. Excessive exposure to cold weather will dry your hands out
quickly.
Drink water. Yes,
it seems cliché but it’s the easiest and best way to keep your skin hydrated.
Carry a bottle of water with you at all times.
Incoproate flaxseed
oil in to your diet. Flaxseed oil is rich in fatty acids and can moisturize
your body from the inside.
Treat yourself to a
relaxing jojoba oil bath. Add a few drops for a nourishing cleanse.
Slather on the
sunscreen. Winter sun and snow glare can be extremely damaging to skin.
Plug in the
humidifier. Central heating systems blast hot dry air but humifiers get
more moisture in the air and help prevent your skin from drying out.
Avoid facial peels.
Harsh toners, masks and peels can strip those vital oils from your face.
Stop taking super hot
showers. Soaking in a burning hot bath or shower breaks down lipid barriers
in skin which will lead to a loss of moisture. Opt for warm water.
