Winter facial skin care: useful tips and recommendations

The main reason for all winter skin problems is dehydration. During the cold period, special care is needed, the usual means that are used in the summer are not suitable. The danger to the skin is dry indoor air, cold outside, as well as a sharp temperature drop.

Another reason for the deterioration of the skin in winter is a lack of vitamins and depression. A person in this state leans on sweet, fatty, spicy or salty. All this has a detrimental effect on the skin and the body as a whole.

Cosmetics in winter

First of all, you should start with washing. Most often I use gels for this, which dry the skin very much during the cold period. It is better to replace them with foam or cosmetic milk. Immediately after washing, use a tonic. It will complete the cleansing and also restore the water balance.

In winter, the skin especially needs hydration. But any products that contain water and promise to increase its content should not be used right before going outside. Especially if the outdoor temperature is much lower than zero. Water in the cold leads to hypothermia, disruption of metabolic processes and unpleasant sensations.

It is better to replace a moisturizing day cream with a nourishing or special one for winter care. An excellent option would be an oil-based product, especially of animal origin (mink oil, horse fat).

Do not neglect decorative cosmetics. It also performs a protective function. But instead of a moisturizing foundation, you need to choose a nutritious one. Once a week or more often, please your face with natural masks.

General recommendations

When leaving a warm room, it is worth covering your face with your hands for a few seconds. This method will allow the skin to adapt to the temperature. When returning to the heat, you do not need to immediately go to the heat source. An air conditioner, a battery or an open fire will dry the already dehydrated skin.

Also in winter it is worth thinking about your health. The skin is an indicator. If something is wrong, rashes, redness and other troubles immediately appear. First of all, attention should be paid to the digestive organs and cleansing of the body. The program "Cleansing" of the resort AMAKS "Ust-Kachka" will help in this. It is aimed at getting rid of toxins and toxins, restoring the normal functioning of the liver and intestines.

A pleasant bonus for the skin in the cold period will be spa treatments, oxygen therapy, an infrared cabin and a Finnish sauna in the AMAKS sanatorium. They will help restore the water and oxygen balance, cleanse the skin of impurities.
