From cold, wind and snow, the skin becomes dry and dehydrated. How to fix it?
Dermatologist and consultant of cosmetic companies Allam Geyer tells how to properly care for your skin in winter and gives simple tips for every day:.
Take dietary supplements “One of the causes of dry skin is a lack of certain vitamins,” says Allam Geyer.. “Vitamin E, fish oil and linseed oil moisturize the skin from the inside.”.
Read the packaging " Switch to gentle products with natural oils and instead of washing your face in the morning, wipe your face with lotion.
Turn on cool water Hot water dries out the skin, which is already dehydrated in winter. Therefore, wash your face with cool water, take a shower at room temperature, and if you decide to bask in the bath, reduce the time to 10 minutes..
Don't exfoliate too much " “Excessive exfoliation increases dehydration.”.
Choose a gentle peel without large particles and without parabens and apply it with light movements.
Don't rub your face \! - emphasizes Allam Geyer. “Don’t rub your face with a towel, just blot a little and immediately apply a nourishing cream to prevent moisture from evaporating.”.
Keep an eye on the air Central heating dries out the air in apartments and offices, and at the same time your skin. Humidifiers can improve her condition - and at the same time decorate the interior.
Expand your arsenal If your usual products are no longer up to the task, try richer textures and more effective ingredients: vitamin E, squalene, plant extracts such as the regenerating and deeply moisturizing Heberlea Rhodope extract.
Limit coffee and alcohol " “Each cup of coffee or glass of wine, drink a glass of still water.”.
Enrich your diet A balanced diet can help solve dry skin problems: add more omega-3 rich foods to your diet: fish, green vegetables, fresh fruits and nuts.
10. Record the result “Thermal water refreshes and nourishes the skin, but quickly evaporates, taking away moisture,” warns Allam.. “Apply a moisturizer afterwards to lock in the good stuff in your skin.”.
