If you live with dry skin, you are probably well aware that the colder temperatures outside and the heat being generated indoors are the perfect storm to make matters worse. If you are not already dealing with flaking or even cracking skin, it is likely to be coming soon. Here are seven tips for people with dry skin so that you can stay ahead of the effects of the harsh winter weather.
-
Use a daily moisturizer – In fact, you may want to moisturize as a part of both your morning and evening skincare routine. In the morning, be sure to use a moisturizer with an SPF if you will be in the sun at all.
-
Avoid soaps that dry your skin – Focus on gentle and natural cleansers for your face. Perhaps you can even find a face wash that includes a moisturizer.
-
Put your moisturizer on immediately after showering – Don’t completely dry your face with the towel. Just pat it dry and then apply the moisturizer directly over the remaining moisture to trap it.
-
Use a humidifier – Your heating system is actively removing moisture from the air inside your home, so you may want to add some moisture back with a humidifier. This will provide your skin with a more natural environment.
-
Go for a hydrating facial – Facials can do more than just treat blemishes. A hydrating facial can pamper your skin and help you to retain moisture.
-
Microdermabrasion – This simple and effective treatment can help your skin to repair itself by stimulating natural collagen production. Healthy skin can better retain moisture on its own.
-
Serums – Treating your skin with serums that contain healing antioxidants, such as vitamin C, is another good way to repair dry and damaged skin.
