Winter Skincare Tips

Cold dry winter can cause dry skin and large pores
In the cold cold weather, you are less likely to have breakouts but probably more likely to have visible/large pores and dry, itchy skin.  Here are a couple tips that will help you get through the cold weather with healthy happy skin:

  • Use gentle soap and facial cleanser and limit the amount of cleansing. 
    In the winter, you really don’t need more than two facial cleansing per day.  On top of that, a squeaky clean skin does not have to feel pulled or tight.  And try to avoid super-hot showers, it does nothing more than dries out your skin.
  • Use facial moisturizer day and night and in between. 
    Just remember to re-apply, re-apply, and re-apply.  Winter is a dry season, so keeping the skin well-hydrated is very important.  Large pores are a tell-tale sign of a dehydrated skin, so are lines and wrinkles.  Re-apply your facial moisturizer or facial serum approximately every three hours and your skin will thank you for that.
  • Find a good age-defying serum
    The dryness in the winter speeds up your skin’s aging.  The drastic temperature shifts between warm and cold cause your skin to freak out, while the dryness accelerates the death of skin cells.  You are more likely to have dull skin tone and fine lines, too.  In the dry winter, you should add an anti-aging serum to your routine for intensive care.  A good anti-aging serum is still supposed to be light-weight and fast-absorbing without the feeling of residue (your fingers and your face shouldn’t feel sticky).
