It's a cold winter day and you take a step outside. As you're looking around you see dry grass, the streets are covered in a white ash and the wind is howling...
Winter is a season that many people enjoy. Whether it's snowball fights, sledding, ice skating or even taking a stroll around the park; people always seem to enjoy themselves during the most wonderful time of the year. One cold winter morning you wake up and go to your bathroom mirror and notice that your skin is dry.
The winter weather can take a toll on our skin. Cold howling wind can damage skin by drying it out. Dry skin can easily tear or feel tight. As you guessed, it isn't healthy for the skin. Keeping your skin moisturized is a HUGE must when winter rolls around. Below I will leave a couple tips on how to keep your skin moisturized during this cold season.
Tip#1
Vaseline
Put Vaseline on your face before going out inside. Vaseline protects the skin from harsh winds and keeps your face warm while you walk in the cold weather.
Tip#2
Moisturize After Showers
People tend to like hot showers, especially during winter. As the hot water hits our skin; it is also stripping us of our natural oils. Using raw shea butter or any other natural ingredient is always what's best on your skin. From experience, I would try avoiding less moisturizing products such as Bath & Body Works, Victoria's Secret and Jergens; these brands use alcohol in their products which is not really helping our skin during these days of need.
Tip #3
Dress Appropriately
Wrapping your face with a scarf, and wearing both a coat and gloves will keep your skin safe from the harsh conditions of winter. Protecting your skin before the wind gets to it is a very smart move to avoid dry skin.
