Winter care

1. Colder the air, less humidity, so drier skin.
2. Skin makes natural moisturisers but as we age, this lessens.
3. Take shorter showers-10mts as warmer water dries you out more & release histamines which cause itching.
4. Moisturize while body is damp so skin softens & is like a sponge & absorbs moisturizer right in. So dont towel fully.
5. Mositurize twice a day.
6. Thicker creamy ones are better compared to thinner ones.
7. Safflower oil is best as has linolic acid that our body makes. Its inexpensive, odorless, can be bought @supermarkets. Put in spray bottle & spray.
8. No over-scrubbing & overdrying skin.
9. For dry lips, dont lick lips. Apply lip balm.
