Winter Skin Care Tips

Summer and fall may be over, but the fact is that your skin still needs the same great care regardless of seasons. You don’t have to spend a lot of money buying ultra expensive skin care products in order to keep your skin looking good in the harsh wintertime. As a matter of fact, great products can be used to winterize your skin straight from your nearby drugstore!

Pay attention to your hands:

The harsh winter weather can wreck havoc on your tender hands, besides your under eye, the skin around your hands is also thinner than skin found on other parts of your body. Your hands are delicate and using the proper moisturizer is essential to keep them looking their best.  Look for lotions with humectants, emollients and occlusives such as glycerin. Such ingredients can literally restore and change your skin’s moisture in order to promote new cell regeneration and heal dry cracked hands.

Look out for the kisser :

Your lips may start to feel a bit dry and rough especially in the winter, you can prevent this by drinking alot of water (remember 6-8 glasses atleast) as well as using a protective lip balm or salve to hydrate and protect the delicate and thin skin around your lips.

The Pick: Aveeno Lip balm SPF 15

Price: $3.99 (drugstores)

Winterize Your Face Products:

Your skin may be more oily in the summer than during winter time, switching a cleanser may be required to adjust to this change. Finding the proper balance is to buy a cleanser that doesn’t dry out your winter skin, but at the same time a cleanser that is able to wash off all your makeup while leaving your skin moisturized and non-irritated.

The Pick: Aveeno Ultra Calming Foaming Cleanser

Price: $8.99 most drugstores carry it.

Keep Your Face Moisturized

A light moisturizer that won’t clog your pores, it also helps to treat dry, red, and irritated skin, also the feverfew in it  helps sooth redness, irritation, and inflammation. Perfect for winter days when the cold wind is on blast!

The Pick: Aveeno Ultra Calming Daily Moisturizer SPF 15

Price Tag: $16.79

Pay attention to you entire body

Your entire body is covered by your skin, pay attention to other areas of your body, they are just as equally as important. A moisturizer that prevents moisture loss and keeps your skin supple and hydrated is a MUST for winter skin!

The Pick: Vaseline Intensive Rescue Clinical Therapy Skin Protectant Body Lotion

Price Tag: $ 4.49
