Dry winter air can cripple your skin- leaving it itchy, dry and irritated, but here we show you simple tips so that your skin can flourish all winter long. Here are top 5 ways to get started:Moisturize your skin frequently: Look for a moisturizer that is oil based, instead of water based, as the oil will create a protective layer on the skin that retains more moisture than a cream or lotion. Your so called “night creams” are usually oil based.
Skip hot water bath: Hot water dries out your skin by extracting it of its natural oils. Instead, take a 5- to 10-minute shower with lukewarm water and it will be tempting to warm up with warm water having rose petals.
Continue sunscreen in winters: It is still important to protect your skin from harmful UV rays in winters. Apply SPF 15 broad spectrum sunscreen or higher to all exposed areas of your body.
Go for branded makeup products: If you use makeup, look for brands that are free of dyes and fragrances that can worsen your skin problems. Remove your makeup before going to sleep.
Eat right and stay hydrated: Foods or supplements that contain omega-3 or omega-6 fatty acids are essential for skin.
