Winterize Your Skin

What can we do to off set Mother Nature’s wrath this holiday season?  MOISTURIZE!

Adding lotion is not always enough!

Simple Tips on How to Effectively Moisturize your Skin.

  1.  Add Water – Wash Skin, use a gentle soap and lots of water to plump up the skin and remove any foreign matter.
  2. Exfoliate – You don’t need a harsh scrub- A simple sugar scrub will work wonders!  To make a simple sugar scrub, use equal parts of basic sugar and oil.  Yes, you can find these ingredients in your kitchen.   Scrub your skin for just a few minutes and then rinse down the drain.
  3. Gently Towel Blot-  Blot off excess oil,  don’t rub and remember to be gentle.  Winter sensitive skin can sometimes be a little raw or chapped, so the key is to gently blot.
  4. Moisturize- This is the time to add lotion or creme.  Massage over skin, this seals in the hydration from the water and puts a barrier over the skin to protect it from the harsh effects of winter cold.  If you skin is sensitive try to select a neutral, fragrance free creme or lotion.

That’s all there is to it.  Easy Tips to Moisturize Your Skin, and keep your skin from having the Winter Time Blues.
