Welcome Back Guys
My goodness, how is Christmas already next week?! This year is just flying. Normally we don’t get to experience “real fall/winter weather” here in Houston but this year has actually been so nice! Unfortunately though, the one thing that comes with cooler weather is drier skin.
Normally I’m pretty good about moisturizing my skin, but during this time of year, I definitely do more in order to keep it from getting too dry!
TIPS TO AVOID DRY SKIN DURING THE WINTER
- Staying hydrated and drinking water is super important
- When showering, try using luke-warm water instead of hot water to help avoid stripping the natural oils from your skin.
- Limit your showers to under 10 minutes.
- Make sure you’re exfoliating 1×2 times a week (can easily be done with a loofa)
- Moisturize both morning and night.
- Lastly, make sure you’re using a moisturizing body wash!
I recently switched to Dove’s new line of body wash and have been loving it so far! I feel like Dove is one of the very few brands that I have consistently used throughout my life, so it’s no surprise that I’m a huge fan of this line.
I have the Purifying Detox Body Wash which is formulated with green clay and is meant to deeply cleanse/ renew your skin and then the Deep Moisture Body Wash which provides instantly soft skin, leaving long lasting nourishment. Both of them really are great! Dove Body Wash’s new formula is made with Moisture Renew Blend – mix of skin-natural nutrients and a plant-based moisturizer that helps maintain the skin’s moisture barrier. You can pick them up literally anywhere Dove products are sold.
