Taking care of your skin during the cold weather can be a challenge, especially if you live in an area with harsh winter conditions. However, with the right skincare routine, you can keep your skin healthy and glowing all year round. Here are five skincare tips to help you take care of your skin during the cold weather:
- Stay hydrated: Drinking enough water is essential for maintaining healthy skin, especially during the winter when the air is dry and cold. Make sure you drink at least eight glasses of water a day to keep your skin hydrated from the inside out.
- Moisturize regularly: Moisturizing is crucial during the cold weather to prevent dry skin. Choose a moisturizer that is rich and nourishing, and apply it to your face and body twice a day, or as needed. Don’t forget to moisturize your hands and lips as well, as they are prone to dryness and cracking. We recommend Dermalogica’s Skin Smoothing Cream Moisturizer, which delivers 48 hours of hydration and locks in moisture all day!
- Use a humidifier: Heating systems can dry out the air in your home, leading to dry skin and other problems. Using a humidifier can help add moisture back into the air, keeping your skin hydrated and healthy. You can ask your Esthetician to use a steamer during your facial!
- Protect your skin from the sun: Just because it’s cold outside doesn’t mean you can skip the sunscreen. UV rays can still damage your skin, even in the winter, so make sure you use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 whenever you go outside. Dermalogica’s Invisible Physical Defense Mineral Sunscreen – it’s lightweight and has 30spf!
- Stay healthy: Your skin reflects your overall health, so make sure you take care of yourself during the winter months. Eat a healthy diet, get enough sleep, and exercise regularly to keep your skin and body in top shape.
By following these five skincare tips, you can help protect your skin from the harsh effects of the cold weather and keep it looking healthy and glowing all season long.
