Winter Skin

It’s important to change your skin care products this time of year to deal with the dramatic shift in weather – Dryer, colder air, heaters blowing on your skin, accessories like hats, ear muffs & scarves touching your skin… All of these factors can leave your precious skin looking a little worse for wear.

Here are some of my tried and true tips for coping with Winter skin:

Gentle Exfoliation

If you don’t remove the dead skin cells, your natural glow can’t shine through. So using a gentle exfoliation cream like Aveeno’s Daily Detoxifying Scrub or

Don’t forget about the rest of your body too – Your lips and skin need some TLC too!

Moisturizing

I can’t stress enough just how important proper moisturizing is to cure Winter skin – Not only treating already drying skin, but to prevent additional damage.

Finding a deliciously thick moisturizer is great, but you also need to make sure that you drink enough water on a daily basis.

Nighttime TLC

Night cream & thick eye creams are important year-around, as your skin does a great deal of healing while you’re sleeping, but they’re doubly important this time of year to help lock in moisture.
