Winter is in full swing and I’ve got some top tips on ways to help stop the crocodile skin and keep your skin soft and hydrated during these cold months.
💦 drinking at least 2 L of water a day not only helps keep your internal organs hydrated but also offers improved skin health, increased energy levels, better digestion, and enhanced cognitive function. Bonus points if you use good quality electrolytes like sodii 💦
🐟 Essential fatty acids (EFAs) are crucial for various bodily functions because the body cannot produce them on its own and must obtain them through diet. EFAs, especially omega-6s like linoleic acid, are important for maintaining skin health and integrity.
They help keep the skin moisturized, reduce inflammation, and contribute to a healthy skin barrier. EDAs also support retina and brain health and the nervous system
💦 having super hot showers dries out the skin , especially on the delicate skin on the face . Do you get lash lifts and tints ? Super hot showers can also shorten the life of your treatment. The best time to apply body lotion / body butter and body oil is after a shower as damp skin absorbs product easier 💦
🫖Do you find keeping up your liquid difficult in cold weather ? A great way to up hydration and warm the cockles is by having a hot herbal tea or even a hot lemon , ginger and honey 🫖
🧖♀️switching up your skincare routine from summer products to winter products is a great way to ensure your skin stays juicy all winter . Making sure you use nourishing serums like hyaluronic acid and vitamin c to give your skin a big drink of water and then locking it In with thicker moisturizers with peptides , ceramides and plant stem cells. Hyaluronic acid is a humectant, meaning it draws moisture from the environment and deeper layers of the skin to the surface, resulting in intense hydration🧖♀️
🧴lastly - remember self care isn’t selfish and it’s really important to take a few moments every week for yourself . A great way to relax , unwind and promote a sense of wellbeing is by leaning into your skincare routine with a nourishing face mask - and don’t forget the lip balm 🧴
