Winter weather is not fun for skin. Cold weather and low humidity levels result in dry air, which then steals moisture away from the skin every second of every day. Without immediate care, dry skin can lead to cracking and bleeding, and harsh winter wind makes the problem worse.
During these months, our skin tends to get dry, itchy, and dull due to lack of moisture. We usually look around for good cold creams and body butters to moisturize dry skin.
You can help reduce these effects by taking some precautions in your daily skin care routine. Try these tips.
Normal Skin
If you have normal skin type, look for a gentle cleanser that is designed for all skin types, which lifts dirt and impurities without drying out skin. Then, follow up with a moisturizer designed for normal skin and you’ll be good to go!
Oily Skin
Since dry winter air can be harsh on anyone’s skin, reach for a gentle cleanser that acts like a magnet to lift dirt, oil, and makeup up away from your face and if you thought you could skip on moisturizer if you had oily skin, think again!
Dry Skin
Dry skin can be uncomfortable and unattractive; it can lead to cracks and fissures in the skin and because cold air outside and heated air inside cause low humidity, it’s often worse in winter. So the best way to get rid of is by using a cleanser that hydrates and soothes your skin.
