Healty Skin All Year Long
December 17th, 2007· Filed Under: Skin Health
Skin care is so important all year around and especially during the winter months when the air is cold and dry.
There are a few things you can do to keep your skin in good condition. When bathing or showering, make sure the water is lukewarm and limit your bath or shower time to round15 minutes. How water dries out your skin. Applying moisturizer or cream can help and continue to do that at intervals during the day.
Avoiding harsh products and soaps is helpful. I use Cetaphil and have found it to be quite effective and gentle. When finished with your bath or shower, be sure to blot dry rather than rubbing your skin which can cause irritation.
Also even though it is winter, be sure to continue to use sun screen to protect your skin from the sun. The reflection of sun on snow can be very powerful and damaging.
