- Avoid hot showers: Go for a warm water bath rather than hot water. Use good quality shower gels or soaps and seal your skin with a good body moisturiser. This will help maintain the natural body oils.
- Chemical free products: A lot of products we use on the skin include harmful chemicals which impact our skin’s natural barrier. These days, there are many high-quality chemical-free brands available that you can invest in. You will have multiple options while choosing a gentle cream and shower gels. Pick your products more consciously and choose chemical-free brands.
- Use humidifiers: Our skin loses moisture during winters. It is recommended to buy a humidifier that will help skin remain hydrated at your home.
- Use sunscreens: People think that sunscreens are only for summers but that’s not true they should be used even on grey winter days. And don’t be fooled by darker and dry winter days. The sun’s harmful UV rays can permeate clouds and still cause damage. So it’s important to apply sunscreen everyday, whether you’re stepping out or staying indoors.
- Wear comfortable wool: There are different types of clothing when it comes to winters. Often, fuzzy sweaters and rough sweaters which can dry up your skin. So avoid wearing these materials directly onto the skin and layer them on some cotton vest instead.
- Exfoliating and pampering: Exfoliating the skin is important to remove the dead skin as the skin cracks and starts coming off. This will make it clear and shiny. Pamper your skin with body butter to restore the oils. Ideally, you should exfoliate your skin every 15 days.
These are some of the steps that should be considered for your skin during winters. You will definitely see results in fews days.
