Skin Care Tips For The Winter Months
With the cold weather just around the corner, now is time to start thinking about a skin care routine that will support and effectively protect the integrity of your skin during the coming months. Whichever skin care product or regime you choose, the key to achieving the results you desire is to be establish a regular routine.
The following tips are the basics of good skin care that will help you emerge into spring, looking your best with a clear, fresh complexion.
Skin Care Tip No 1 - Cleanse
For good skin care, this is THE number 1 tip. Cleansing the skin properly is essential to remove grime, grease and impurities that block the pores. Choose a cleanser that will cleanse the skin without upsetting the skin’s pH balance. Time saving tip: If you remove your make up thoroughly at night, you will only need a light cleanse in the morning.
Skin Care Tip No 2 - Exfoliate
Exfoliate to get rid of dead skin cells and reveal the fresh, smooth, new glowing skin that lies beneath. The appearance of wrinkles, visible pores and signs of sun damage could also be reduced as you deeply cleanse and exfoliate away that aging surface layer of skin. Micro-dermabrasion is a technique that is much more effective than a facial scrub that can scratch and irritate the skin without working deeply into the areas that really need it. With at-home micro-dermabrasion systems now widely available, you can easily incorporate this treatment into your skin care routine.
Skin Care Tip No 3 - Tone.
Avoid alcohol toners, and consider using floral water, obtainable from good health stores, to freshen and tone the skin and to remove any residue from the cleanser. Rosewater, Orange floral water and Rosemary floral water are good options. Rosemary is particularly good for oily skin, whilst Rose and Orange are more suitable for sensitive, dry and mature skin.
Skin Care Tip No 4 - Moisturise.
Cold and wind dehydrate the skin. Use a daily moisturiser to hydrate, prevent moisture loss and protect against pollution and environmental stresses. Look for a moisturiser with an antioxidant formula such as Vitamin C. As an antioxidant, Vitamin C is a very effective, protecting the skin against the effects of pollution, stress, smoking and other environmental free radicals that attack the healthy cells of our skin and prematurely age the skin.
Skin Care Tip No 5 - Protect.
Even in the winter months it is still important to protect the skin against the damaging rays of the sun. Consider using a foundation with an SPF factor. Use a lip balm on its own or under lipstick to condition and protect them from moisture loss.
Skin Care Tip No 6 - Skin Care From Within
What we eat is reflected in how we look. Avoid fast and processed food and choose a varied diet to provide essential nutrients. Your skin will love you for it and reward you with soft, smooth, healthy skin.
