WINTER SKIN

If you participate in outdoor sports in the wintertime, or if you spend time inside a dry office building, here are some tips to help your skin survive the cold, dry winter:

1. Don't use hot water to wash your face. Make your water lukewarm, as heat pulls the oil out of your skin.

2. Unless you have oily skin, try a super fatted soap. These don't strip your skin, and your face won't have that tight feeling after you use one.

3. Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize! Do this as soon as you get out of the shower, while your skin is still slightly damp. You'll get the most out of the moisture that way. Weight Loss Secrets

4. Invest in a humidifier to help put moisture back in the air. Central air and heat, found in most office buildings (and many homes) dries out your skin. I even bought a small one to keep near my desk at work. Everything felt so dry, I figured I looked like a raisin! The humidifier has really helped me. Be sure to check with your boss first, though. You don't want to do anything you're not supposed to do.

5. Finally, don't forget the sunscreen! You put it on in the summer, and you should put it on in the winter, too. Much as sand reflects the summer sun, snow does the same for the winter sun. We tend to forget that sun damage can exist in the winter, since it's so cold, but it can be just as damaging. If you don't want to use a plain old sunscreen, make sure that it's in your makeup. There are several brands out there that have sunscreen right in them, so find the one that's right for you.
