When it's cold outside, dry skin is a common problem for many people. Lack of humidity, exposure to dry air or heating can cause skin to become much drier during the winter months. During winter, skin can tend to become dry, itchy, red or inflamed. In turn, exposure to cold, especially on areas such as the face, hands and lips, can cause cracking, redness and dry patches. How to take care of your skin in winter?
Remember that hydration starts from the inside, so make sure you drink plenty of water, which is easy to forget in winter. If possible, cut down on caffeine, as it dehydrates the body. Consider buying a humidifier if you mostly stay indoors where the air is really dry. Adding essential oil or floral water to the water will also give the room a pleasant scent. Reduce the water temperature when showering or washing your hands, as hot water dries out your skin. And of course, don't forget the right cosmetics. Conveniently place a cream, lotion or hand butter right by the sink and use it immediately after washing your hands.
The skin on the body also becomes seasonally drier, more sensitive and may even itch and peel. Body oils are a good way to take care of your skin in winter. Green Wing 100% Natural Lemongrass Body Oil will nourish, soften and relieve the symptoms of dryness and flaking, leaving your body feeling velvety. It contains moisturising Grape Seed Oil and exquisite Sweet Almond Oil to leave skin feeling soft and prevent dryness. Chamomile extract will help heal damaged skin and protect it from environmental aggressors. The oil absorbs quickly and has a fresh, invigorating scent from Lemongrass essential oil. To use: apply evenly to damp skin, massage in gently, do not rinse off.
