With cooler weather here, our skin can become dry and flaky in no time due to forced air heat indoors and extreme cold wind chills outside. It is time to switch up your skincare routine to have healthy, glowing skin the during cold weather of Fall and Winter. Below are a tips to avoid dry, tight, flaky skin this season.
Stay Hydrated
Drinking water is just as important in the Winter as in the Summer. There are actually more cases of dehydration in the colder months because our bodies have to work harder to humidify the air we breathe outside to warm our bodies up. Plus, we often skip drinking water because we feel less thirsty, sweat less, and even the dry air inside our homes and offices can trigger dehydration. Think of what it is doing to our skin! Always keep a bottle of water with you to drink throughout the day and at meal time. Water helps maintain your skin’s health.
You can also use humidifiers to add moisture back to our home or office, they come in all sizes. This added moisture will help keep your skin from drying out which can give you the healthy glow and dewy look you want.
Gently Exfoliate
During cooler weather, your skin cells can dry out, creating a rough, dry texture. Gently exfoliate your skin to scuff away dry skin to reveal clean, balanced, and beautiful skin with SeabuckWonders Exfoliating Facial Cleanser. This is the prefect first stop toward healthy, glowing skin this season. I absolutely love this cleanser. It is gentle on my sensitive skin yet leaves my face feeling smooth and clear.
Moisturize
Moisturizing your skin is especially important during cooler weather. It is best to moisturize your skin right after showering for quick absorption. SeabuckWonders Body Lotion is a luxurious lotion that will hydrate your entire body and it isn’t too heavy or thick.
For your face, you can choose a couple ways to stay hydrated, a facial cream or hydrating serum. I’ve used Seabuck Wonders Facial Cream and it is a nice, light, and creamy cream. I like it but I absolutely adore the SeabuckWonders Deep Hydrating Serum, it’s like nothing I’ve ever used.
SeabuckWonders Deep Hydrating Serum is very, very light and leaves my face feeling ultra moisturized without a heavy feeling. It nourishes my skin and encourages cell regeneration which is great as an anti-aging component to fill in fine lines and wrinkles. Ultimately, I use it because it gives my face a more youthful appearance and a healthy glow when I use it with the SeabuckWonders Exfoliating Facial Cleanser. These are my top two fave facial products.
That being said, it isn’t a bad idea to use a serum and a facial cream during the winter for added potency to combat the impending harsh weather. The combination will keep your skin soft and supple no matter what.
Avoid Hot Water
It is tempting to use hot water on those really cold Winter mornings but it is best to use lukewarm water. Hot water actually breaks down the lipid barrier of your skin which dries out your skin.
Protect Your Skin
Protect your face – and hands – from drying out when battling the cold wind, rain, and snow. Wear a hat, gloves, and scarf.
I hope the above tips help you get healthy, glowing skin during the upcoming cold weather seasons. I encourage you to check out SeabuckWonders for their entire line of skincare products.
