Longing for the long, summer days filled with warm sunshine and tan lines? Well now is the time to prepare your skin for next summer! You can't have that summer glow without winter care.



Here are some tips for taking care of your skin in the winter:
  • Moisturize: Use a thick moisturizer with emollients like shea butter or avocado oil daily to keep your skin hydrated. You can also apply moisturizer to exposed skin like your hands, neck, and ankles. 
  • Use a humidifier: A humidifier adds moisture to the air, which can help prevent dry, itchy skin.
  • Protect from the sun: Wear sunscreen every day to protect your skin from UV rays that can cause skin cancer and aging. You can also use a moisturizer with SPF.  
  • Exfoliate: Use a gentle exfoliating scrub twice a week to remove dead skin cells.  
  • Use sheet masks: Sheet masks can provide a concentrated dose of hydration and nourishment.  
  • Adjust your cleanser: Switch to a cleanser that better suits your skin during the winter months.  
  • Avoid over-cleansing: If your skin feels dry and tight when you wake up, you can skip cleansing in the morning. 
  • Limit hot water and soap: Avoid using too much hot water and soap.  
  • Avoid extreme cold: Try to avoid extreme cold temperatures. 
  • Avoid winter tanning: Don't tan in the winter. 
  • Keep indoor temperatures moderate: The American Osteopathic College of Dermatology recommends keeping indoor temperatures between 68°F and 75°F.
