Dear points,
The cold winter weather can be a nightmare for the skin of each person and the exposed parts of the body, not just those who have sensitive skin. The lowest temperatures, cold wind and dry indoor air causes the water evaporates on the skin, and that's why we get dry, itchy and even painful skin cracked, not to mention dry eyes, which tear (ironically) and above. Unfortunately, it takes more than a slap on some moisturizer your skin and fighting brutal to protect Air cream. Here are some tips for winter test when you have to brave the cold.

To be covered, as much as possible

Needless to say, but unless your body is exposed to the elements, the better. You are not wearing a ski mask and goggles (or the part you do not put your arms down) to require to work. The key is to choose your clothes carefully.

  • The best winter jackets have to block functions, snow or cold air in connection, for example :. Storm shutters on the zipper, laces or other fasteners on the sleeves and waist, high collar or stand-up. Dick's Sporting Goods has a winter jacket - Guide when looking for a jacket that keep you comfortable and safe this winter elements.
  • Knitted and earmuffs are nice, but a fan, especially one that block wind side of his face was isolated.
  • In a similar leather or mittens a physical barrier are better than cotton.
  • Do not forget a scarf to cover not only the neck but to pull the nose when it is really stormy.
  • Be sure not to lose your clothes; if they are, the wind your way is. As an alternative to tight clothing, layers are your friend. (Uniqlo Heattech line of clothing for the men and the women can keep warm.)
  • In addition, avoid the rough clothing like wool because they can disrupt the barrier, so that the maintenance of skin moisture.

Use skin care products right

Even if you covered from head to toe your body, your skin is still vulnerable to dry in winter. It's time our care scheme skin to re-evaluate.

  • When washing, use a cream, foam cleansers and moisturizers not liquid soaps, rather than multiple drying soaps. Also avoid astringents, especially those containing alcohol because they give skin its moisture strips can.
  • More in The Telegraph , facialist Joanne Evans recommends dry peel, scaly skin three times a week if you have dry skin or twice a week, if you have oily or combination skin have. By dry skin to get rid of, help you move new cells with moisture to the surface, says Marie Claire . The key is to continue to rub with a large amount of moisturizer or a hydrating mask treatment.
  • Moisten frequently throughout the day!
  • When a lotion is used on the basis of light water, switch to a moisturizer or more oil. WebMD suggests finding oil ingredients "nonclogging" as a lawyer, minerals, evening primrose oil or oil of almonds. Or for lotions with "," looking for that attract moisture to the skin: glycerol, sorbitol and alpha hydroxy acids.
  • If it contains very sensitive or sensitive skin care products with sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS), which has been found to irritate the skin and make it more permeable .
  • A lotion-like shape with a barrier that lasts even with frequent hand washing.
  • Do not forget the sunscreen, especially on and under the nose, if you are active in the outdoors .
  • After all, they are often applied lip balm with SPF, but avoid contains camphor, phenol, menthol, OL or salicylic acid.

Protect your eyes

Both indoor and outdoor winter environments can aggravate our eyes, which makes them dry or liquid eye. There is nothing comparable in the cold walk, a gust of wind caused tears, and the water of the sensitive area from dry eyes. (My eyes are cracked!) To avoid this:

  • Wear sunglasses, preferably the kind that is. To your face This will help you against the glare of the snow and cold wind like this.
  • If you have dry eyes, artificial tears or eye drops mild lubricants.
  • Users should frequently lenses rewetting your lenses.
  • Blink more .
  • All eyes on dry recommended to apply warm compresses at night or when you wake up to help with irrigation
  • And, yes, moisturize the eye.

Change your habits within

Stay hydrated is always important, even in winter, if you want to save your skin. Plus:

  • Take showers or hot baths instead of steam. You feel in the winter well, but the intense heat may break the lipid barrier of the skin and your body will lose more moisture.
  • Turn on the humidifier, especially at night when the body tries to repair itself. The Sweet recommends humidifier-O-Swiss ($ 180), but it also increases the moisture in the air.
  • Eat more healthy fats such as nuts, avocados and oily fish. Eskimos eat a diet rich in fish and healthy fats, which plays a role in her amazing skin .
  • According to the NIH , rinses - mouth with alcohol, cold medicine over the counter, and some recipes, such as antidepressants and medicines for blood pressure, dryness can worsen to see if you can use alternatives.
  • No smoking, and reduce alcohol consumption.

Treat dry and cracked skin

Finally, if all this exfoliation, moisturizing and not moistening, and your skin is still dry or cracked, here are some things that might help you:

  • Aquaphor or Vaseline, especially chapped lips.
  • At night, after the hands and feet moisturizing, he put socks and gloves made of cotton it again to help their moisture.
  • Windburned treating skin with 1% of hydrocortisone .
  • Many people like (but remember to try and find it a little stings.)
