Cold, wind, offices with an overpowered heating system that dries whatever moisture was left on your skin from outdoors... It is no wonder that many women dread winter and its effect on their skin. A new season calls for some changes on your beauty routine in order to keep breakouts, flaky patches and dry skin at bay.
Wear Products with Sunscreen
Even if the sun is nowhere to be seen, ultraviolet light still makes it past the cloud cover and will increase the rate at which your skin ages. This effect is compounded by the fact that wind and cold dry up your skin and lower its natural resistances, so while you won't get sunburnt your skin will still suffer. Invest on moisturizers or makeup with added FP15 filters at the very least. In fact, you should do this all year around to reduce the speed at which free radicals age your skin, but it's easier to remember about it when the sun is shining and your face starts to feel too warm.
Use More Moisturizer than Usual
Skin in winter suffers even more from lack of moisture, so even if you already use a moisturizer cream regularly it's a good moment to buy a slightly heavier one. Alternatively, you can replace your usual tinted moisturizer with a foundation enriched with anti-aging serums, or apply a face mask at least once a week that is suited for your skin type. This will help keep redness and wrinkles at bay, and will make your skin feel much more comfortable. If you work on an office with a specially dry environment you may want to reapply your moisturizing or use a water spray during the day.Read More
