MOISTURIZE REGULARLY

Moisturizer that works fine in spring and summer will definitely not work in winter season. as weather condition changes you should change your skin care routine accordingly. For winter season use “orintment moisturizer “which is oil based rather than water based. This type of moisturizer will retain more moisturizer than cream or lotion. But choose oil with care because not all oil are appropriate for your face instead look for non clogging oil like avocado oil, mineral oil, primrose oil or almond oil. You can also use lotions containing “humectants”  (which include glycerin, sorbitol & alpha hydroxyl acids ) that attract moisturizer.

DRINK A LOT OF WATER

Water is very important for body it keeps you healthy; each glass of water adds a valuable moisturizer to your skin. In cold season you must drink six to eight glasses of water a day and you will find a clear difference before and after. Drinking water helps your skin stay young looking.

LIPS BALM

      PACE THE PEEL

Avoid using rough peels, alcohol based toner and masks because these will extract necessary oil from your skin and makes your skin drier. To prevent this problem, find a cleansing milk or mild foaming cleanser toner and mask with no alcohol.

BAN PROLONG BATH AND HARSH SOAP

Avoid taking long bath and harsh soap. Take bath with lukewarm water, a lukewarm bath with oatmeal or baking soda can help relieve skin that is to dry. If you are using harsh soap then you were experienced that it creates a layer of white chemicals that makes your skin drier so avoid using these type of soaps and use soft milding soap to reduce dryness from your face.
