Humidity levels drop during winter, and indoor heating further reduces moisture in the air. Most of us spend a lot of time indoors or at work, so it’s only natural for our skin to dry out more quickly.<\/p>\n
Body Care Tips<\/p>\n
For most people, this is the amount of water needed for the kidneys to function optimally and for the entire body to stay properly hydrated. Of course, if you wish to drink more water, there’s no need to restrict yourself.<\/p>\n
Using a cream or lotion after showering helps lock in moisture for a longer period. However, it\u2019s best to hydrate your skin with a quality cream multiple times a day.<\/p>\n
Especially during winter, it\u2019s ideal not to spend more than 10 minutes in the shower. Long showers strip your skin of its natural oils.<\/p>\n
Hot water removes the natural oils from your skin. Right after washing, make sure you have a good moisturizing cream to apply to your hands.<\/p>\n
A simple recipe for a body scrub: two teaspoons of brown sugar + two teaspoons of coconut or olive oil. Use this scrub to exfoliate your feet, hands, and elbows. While body scrubs have great benefits, they should only be used once a week to avoid irritating and drying out your skin.<\/p>\n
Keep in mind that creams are generally oil-based, while lotions are water-based. For this reason, during the colder months, it\u2019s advisable to use creams more often than lotions.<\/p>\n
No matter how many creams or treatments you use, it’s important to protect your skin from the cold as much as possible. Prevention is key before the need for treatment arises!<\/p>\n
