The considerable change in weather from the summer being hot & humid to winter being cold & dry takes a toll on any skin. These conditions make it difficult for the skin to maintain its own moisture and trans-epidermal water loss happens. This can cause healthy skin to require more attention and existing problems to worsen. It’s important to make sure your using the right products for the fall & winter to combat any problems that may arise. Switch from using a foaming cleanser that can strip the skin of its natural oils, to a gentle, soothing cleanser, free from sodium laurel sulfates. I recommend Societe Clinical Skin Care’s PURE Everyday Cleanser which contains aloe, vitamin E and glycerin which moisturizes, soothes and protects the skin. For added moisture try using Societe’s new Marine Hydrating Mask 2-3 times a week. Antioxidants and vitamins A, C & E refresh, plump and hydrate the skin, whilst the fruit extracts naturally exfoliate the skin.
By keeping your skin hydrated you can look radiant for the holidays!
