Everything Enchanting

Winters are wonderful, especially if you live in a region where it snows. The season has many fans around the world. But there is one common complaint about winters from just about everyone. The cold isn’t good for our skin. 

Our skin turns pale, dry, itchy, and looks lifeless. Sitting with the heater on all day long doesn’t help either. It worsens the dryness by removing all the moisture from the top layers of the skin. When we couple this with our already existing companions, like stress and lack of time to take care of our skin, we are doing quite a lot of damage to the biggest organ of our body. 

But with a little care, we can ensure that our skin is soft, hydrated, and glowing even during the coldest of winters. How? Take a look below.

How to Keep Your Skin Glowing In Winters (Tips for glowing winter skin naturally)

We’ve got more than a handful of simple, natural tips to keep your skin glowing in winters.

1. Don’t Say No to Water

Many of us don’t drink enough water during the winters. We don’t feel dehydrated enough. But our body losses water in various ways, and we don’t even realize that it happens. It is vital to drink water even during the cold winter days. Lack of water content in the body will affect your skin and make it look pale and dull. Hydrated skin will naturally glow, irrespective of the season. 

2. Lukewarm Water is the Key 

Hot showers are relaxing when it is cold outside. But steaming hot water is not good for the skin. It steals away the moisture and leaves your skin feeling chapped and lifeless. You may not see it immediately, but a long hot shower without a moisturizing routine afterward will harm your skin and worsen the dryness. Use lukewarm water to wash your face. You can use hot water (with optimum temperature for your body). 

3. Moisturize Your Skin Every Day 

We cannot stress enough about using moisturizers for your skin during winters. You will need the ones with cream and oils. The texture has to be thick and heavy so that the creaminess seeps into the pores of your skin, leaving it hydrated throughout the day. If you have excess dry skin, carry a small bottle of moisturizer with you. Choose a brand that suits your skin. If you are wary of products from the market, simply use virgin coconut oil. Apply the moisturizer immediately after taking a bath. 

4. Skincare at Night is a Compulsory Ritual

Your body rests for a few hours every night. It is the best time to repair your skin. Follow a skincare routine each night without fail. Apply moisturizing oils and serums, use facial sleep masks, and wear socks and gloves to keep the moisture locked in. Your skin will start to glow when it has been pampered the previous night. 

5. Minimize Exfoliation

We know how important it is to exfoliate the skin at least once a week. This rids the skin of the dead cells, improves blood circulation, and brings back the glow. But exfoliating during the winters is tricky. You need to ensure that you do not overdo the scrubbing. This will further dry the skin and make it hypersensitive. Use cream-based products rather than gel-based ones. You can also make chemical-free exfoliating cream at home.

6. Sunscreen is Still Essential 

The UV rays can seep through the foggy atmosphere. This means that you will need to use sunscreen to keep your skin healthy and glowing no matter which season it is. Invest in a moisturizer that also acts as a sunscreen or vice versa.

7. Your Diet Affects Your Skin’s Health

It is important that you take care of your skin from the outside. But what about caring for it from the inside? What you eat affects your skin’s health in many ways. To continue having glowing and soft skin during writers, you will need to make a few adjustments to your diet. Increase the intake of omega 3-rich foods, such as eggs, fish, avocado, milk, yogurt, cheese, chia seeds, nuts, etc. Eat fruits that are full of vitamins A, C, and E.

8. Use Indoor Heaters with Room Temperature

If you use indoor heaters regularly during winters, you might have to make some changes here as well. Set the heater at room temperature and wear warm, woolen clothes to cover your skin. Setting the heater at higher temperatures can dry your skin fast and take away its natural moisture. Your skin, thus, ends up looking dull and dry even when you have stayed indoors all day.

Change the soaps and face washes during winters and use the creamy varieties. Reduce the duration of your bath and apply the moisturizer on your body and face and massage it into the skin till it seeps in. 

That’s all!
