Disclosure: I received this product free for testing purposes
but all opinion are honest and my own.
One of the main challenges of winter is to keep the skin hydrated and look healthy. So I
1. Get a beauty routine, if you do not have it yet.
I mean to eat healthy, take vitamin supplements, sleep well, find the right beauty products for your skin.
2. Drink water.
Of course it is super necessary to drink water during the winter so as not to lose the elasticity of the skin. Although our body does not require it, water should be part of our beauty routine.
3. Take short showers.
Believe it or not, bathing for long periods of time, especially with hot water dries the skin. Expose too much time to hot water reduces the natural oils of the skin losing hydration.
4. Take care of the products you use.
For example, using exfoliating in the winter is not recommended, unless your skin really needs it. Using exfoliants could make the skin dry and flaky. That is why it is important to know our skin very well.
5. Hydrates the skin.
After each bath it is essential to apply a moisturizer. The most advisable is to apply it on the skin a little wet, this helps to have a greater absorption. Choose an oil-based moisturizer or one that has a very dense texture because it absorbs better.
And as we talk about choosing a good moisturizer, I'll tell you about one that seems very good for this time. Let me tell you a little about the brand.
