Take Care Of Your Skin This Winter

Hello there Ladies! Today’s discussion is going to be about your skin.

We all know that we have internal organs to keep our body functioning at its best. But did you realize that your SKIN is the largest organ on/in your body!

This organ, just like any other, reacts to how you treat it, what you put into it, and how you look after it.

Take Care Of Your Skin This Winter

Low humidity, snow, wind, rain, and cold temperatures can cause dry, irritated skin, resulting in eczema flare-ups. Use the following tips this winter to keep your skin feeling less dry and more comfortable.

1. Use a humidifier. With the heat on and the windows closed, the air inside can become very dry in the winter, making your skin become dry. Use a humidifier to replace moisture in the air. This can keep skin from drying and becoming cracked and itchy.

2. Moisturize frequently. Lavish your skin with Intense Moisturizing Cream for an immediately more radiant look and unbelievably soft feel. This luxurious cream leaves your skin feeling hydrated for up to 10 hours as it infuses the skin with a marine extract, vitamin E and minerals like copper, magnesium and zinc that help nourish skin beautifully.

• Helps soften skin with marine extract and humectants to attract moisture, and

3. Before Going Outside in Winter.

• Apply a heavy layer of sunscreen with an SPF of 15 or higher to the face, hands, and any other skin that may be exposed. This will act as a barrier to help protect against the harsh elements. Why use sunscreen in the winter?

Sunscreen is important in winter as the sun’s reflective powers are great year round – 17% on the sand and 80% on the snow.

• Grab those gloves. Protecting hands from the cold air and low humidity plays an important role in protecting your hands from becoming dry and cracked.

4. Dress in layers. The most common triggers of the scratch/itch cycle are sweating and overheating. Wearing layers allows you to remove clothing as needed to prevent overheating. Be sure to wear loose-fitting cotton fabrics next to your skin.

5. Shed wet clothes and shoes immediately. These can irritate the skin and is another way our skin can become cracked, dry and itchy.
