How to Protect Your Skin During Winter With the cold weather in full swing, it’s now time to take a seasonal approach to your skin and follow a winter skin care regimen. During this time of year, the temperature and humidity can vary greatly. It's freezing cold outside, then warm and heated inside. Such frequent and dramatic temperature changes cause a lot of stress on your skin. Your skin needs moisture, and these temperature fluctuations affect your skin’s hydration, which can lead to dry and irritated skin. Some Tips and Tricks for a Healthy Glow All Year Long Although a nice warm shower seems quite inviting in the winter, it’s not so great on your skin. Spending too much time in hot, steamy showers will deprive your skin of its natural oils. So keep your showers shorter. Aveda makes several excellent skin care products. For very dry skin, use a heavy-duty moisturizer such as their Botanical Kinetics Intensely Hydrating Rich Creme, which locks moisture into your skin for 24 hours. Be sure to use a gentle foaming cleanser. It will feel good on your skin and keep it from drying out. The Botanical Kinetics Purifying Creme Cleanser is a great addition to your regimen. It will dissolve impurities while leaving your skin soft and smooth. It’s important to swap out your harsh face masks, peels and toners so you’re not stripping the natural oils from your face. Save those for the warmer months. Don’t forget about your eye cream! The skin around the eyes is thin and susceptible to harsh winter winds. The Tulsara
Brightening Sleeping Masque for Eyes can visibly brighten and repair while you sleep. Now that your skin is hydrated and glowing, be sure to also swap out your face makeup for foundation that will keep your skin healthy. Makeup that is too matte will clog your pores and cause any hydration that is in your skin to dissipate. Be sure to use something more moisturizing like the Mineral Tinted Moisture Foundation. It will feel good on your skin. Don’t neglect your hands! Winter can be harsh on them too. For dry, cracked hands use the Hand Relief Moisturizing Creme. You will instantly feel the relief.
