10 Tips to Keep Skin Soft and Glowing In Winter

Waking up in the dead of winter with dry skin is the worst. You feel like a zombie, and don’t want to go near anyone with your chapped lips and flaky skin. Here are some remedies to keep your skin quenched and happy all winter long.

1. Winter means dry, cracking skin and itchy, chapped feelings which don’t make you feel youthful or supple whatsoever. Here’s how to keep your skin hydrated all through the cold and dry season.

2. Don’t take a ton of hot showers or baths. Lukewarm water is better, despite how nice a hot shower feels in the winter. Lukewarm water doesn’t strip away.

3. Don’t use harsh cleansers. The more natural, the better! Harsh cleansers strip away those essential moisturizing agents we know as oils. Gentle ones don’t trigger flare ups.

4. Moisturize right after you shower. Adding moisture to damp skin helps seal in that dampness and avoid that pasty ashiness none of us want. Throw that lotion on more liberally, the colder it is!
