The cold weather causes the skin to become thinner in certain areas, making it look drier and causing inflammation and flaking. During the winter season it is important to take care of our skin from these aggressive changes.
In winter our skin suffers the sudden change in temperature when we go in and out of the house or work, and is exposed to pollution, wind, sun or heating. During this period it is very common that regardless of the type of skin, the cold and the wind dry and punish the dermis. From HIGHXTAR. we reveal some tips to protect your skin from the winter.
Cleanse the skin, but not too much
Too much cleansing can strip the skin of essential oils, especially in winter. Cleansing the skin is very important so that it can regenerate properly, but do not overdo it as this can have the opposite effect. Everything should be done in moderation.
Moisturiser is important
An unscented moisturiser will be your best friend. After cleansing your face, it is best to apply your favourite cream to wet or damp skin to help the product penetrate the skin. For body care, oil- or cream-based moisturisers are much better than lotions.
Avoid hot showers
Avoid very hot water because, even if it is the most desirable in winter, it dehydrates the skin a lot. It also promotes the loss of lubrication. The best thing to do? Showers and washing should be done with lukewarm water. And don’t forget to dry yourself thoroughly after bathing.
LED light masks
During the winter, LED masks can help reduce the appearance of visible signs of skin ageing and also help in the treatment of acne. It improves skin elasticity, minimises pores, reduces and prevents wrinkles, helps combat oily areas.
Use a humidifier
In the winter, the air is dry and starch can seep in through heating, which has a direct impact on the quality of your dermis. Humidifiers add moisture to the air, which can benefit the skin, making it look more hydrated and nourished.
Protect yourself from the sun
It is important that you take care of your skin every day, because even if you don’t notice it or it doesn’t seem serious, the time spent in the sun is damaging the skin if we don’t protect it well, and as the skin has a memory, in the long term, premature ageing of the skin will occur.
