Skincare Tips for Dry Skin in Winters

~CLEANSE with warm water, instead of hot, when used too often, the steam from hot water tends to have a drying effect on your skin

~don't forget to EXFOLIATE, this is extremely important to rid the skin's surface of dead skin cells which is the culprit in flaky, itchy, dull and lifeless looking skin

~MOISTURIZE while your skin is slightly damp & your pores are open to receive the vast amount of penetration for the beneficial emollients, the results will be soft, smooth skin for a longer period of time than when a moisturizer is applied to dry skin

~don’t forget to protect your LIPS, look for a lip balm with an SPF in it to help prevent chapped lips

~if you do take a hot bath, add some BATH OIL to your water

~use MILD SOAPS, try to avoid deodorant soaps, they can be more drying to the skin

~apply HAND CREAM immediately after washing your hands to seal in moisture

~use extra rich, thick CREAMS for problem areas to assist in healing very dry skin

~a HUMIDIFIER is a worthy investment for your home during the winter months

~use lotion or cream to SHAVE with instead of shaving foam

~MOISTURE FACIAL MASK
