Maintain Healthy, Glowing Skin This Winter
It is normal for skin to respond negatively when the weather changes, so there’s no need to panic. To limit these effects while transitioning between seasons, use a gradual approach: start by increasing the amount of hydration in your formulas and how often you apply them. This will help restore moisture balance and keep your skin healthy during seasonal shifts!
Revel in the luxurious feeling of rich hydration that winter-strength skin treatments give you! It’s so much more effective to gradually add moisture with every step of your routine rather than simply applying excessively thick cream. Enjoy this wonderful experience and marvel as your skin absorbs all that extra nourishment.
During the harsh winter months, your skin is more susceptible to everything from dryness and itching to wrinkles, roughness, and peeling. As temperatures drop outside, so too does the moisture in your skin’s lipid barrier – a protective layer that gets easily weakened due to lack of humidity. When this happens it can leave your complexion exposed to external aggressors while compromising its natural ability to stay hydrated and renew itself.
Commonly used dry-skin moisturizers tend to rely heavily on petroleum, giving the impression that all of them contain similar ingredients no matter their cost. Those without petroleum normally include propylene glycol (chemically related to antifreeze), silicones for texture and even fragrances – even “unscented” ones are composed of masking aromas just as disruptive as those with a strong scent.
Clean and non-toxic formulas are crafted with carefully chosen emollients such as shea butter, coconut butter, or botanical waxes like rose. For an added boost of hydration, the formula may also incorporate sunflower oil, pumpkin seed oil, olive oil, jojoba oil or avocado oils. However if you have any allergies to essential oils it is important to read the full ingredient list before making your purchase!
Moreover, don’t forget to apply moisture frequently: keep slathering your skin with moisturizing products of your choice every time you remember. You can put oil or cream over makeup as a quick fix. Always have some handy in the drawer at work and in your make-up bag; go for layering an oil under a cream and intensify masking sessions from 10 minutes to two or three times per week. Additionally, use humidifiers while sleeping – if it’s not available, fill up bowls with water before going to bed instead (even though it won’t be as effective).
Taking care of your skin should feel great and look even better! Healthy skin looks vibrant, glowing, and hydrated; you won’t need as much makeup due to the natural radiance.
