Keep your skin in great shape this winter!

The cold winter months can be especially brutal when it comes to dry skin. Today, we are going to look at some skincare tips to keep you feeling as fabulous as possible, despite the winter weather. Let's take a look!

Do: Moisturize Often

It is generally recommended to moisturize your skin twice a day. This goes for the face and body, and it's especially important in the winter. In particular, lotions with Hyaluronic Acid, Ceramides, and Petrolatum are beneficial for providing extra moisture. Go for the thicker moisturizers this time of year as well. If you're looking to treat yourself this season (you deserve it!), check out the Luce Daytime Moisturizing & Nourishing Cream on Mozzafiato. It even features sunscreen and Hyaluronic Acid, which are awesome for maintaining smooth and healthy skin.

Don't: Take Excessive Hot Showers

As tempting as it may be to take a long hot shower, it can actually be quite drying to the skin. This can definitely be a tough habit to kick. I struggle with my love for hot showers myself, but we're in this together. Try to limit your showers to 15 minutes and maintain a lukewarm temperature. It may be tough at first, but your skin will thank you.

Do: Consider Buying a Humidifier

A humidifier is a great investment if you're looking to add some extra moisture back into the air. Keep one in the room you spend the most time in, or spread a few throughout your home if possible.

Don't: Neglect Sunscreen

You might believe you only need to wear sunscreen at the beach or in the summer, but this is not the case. The temps might not be quite as hot, but the sun's rays can still cause damage and aging to the skin. The sun can also reflect off of the snow, making it stronger.

Do: Carry Lip Balm

It's not fun having chapped and crusty lips. Luckily, lip balms are easy to throw into your purse or pockets. Check out this White Almond Soothing Lip Balm on Mozzafiato. With micronutrients and Vitamin E, this brings a comforting softness to dry winter lips.

Don't: Drink Too Much Alcohol

Honestly, this tip goes for general health too. Alcohol can dehydrate the body and skin, which means it could cause more dryness. If you are drinking, be sure to supplement with lots of water, and don't overdo it with alcohol.

These are just a few simple tips for a great skincare routine this winter! You can shop all your winter skincare needs and some of the products we featured here on Mozzafiato.
