Tips To Help Your Skin Stay Moist, Soft And Healthy Throughout Winter

 

Use an Oil-based Moisturizer

As the outer layer of your skin tends to become dry during the winter, it is essential that you use a moisturizer that is oil-based. This will help reduce the level of dryness making your face feel a lot softer. Those with oily skin can use a light moisturizer.

Slather on Sunscreen

Sure the days are shorter and nights longer in winter, but that does not mean you chuck your sunscreen away until the summer. Religiously apply a sunscreen before you leave your home with an SPF of at least 15.

Befriend the Lip Balm

Do not lick your lips because it will only chap your lips more. Make sure to keep a lip balm in your bag and apply it to keep your lips moist and pink.

Avoid Hot Baths

Taking very hot baths causes your skin to lose its moisture. Instead, use lukewarm water and avoid staying in the water for too long as it tends to open up your pores.
