During winter, our skin faces the worst time. The humidity is dehydrating and the cold temperature stresses the skin and weakens the skin’s protective barrier and causes more water to evaporate. The skin reacts to this by redness irritation and hypersensitivity and chapping.
Steamy hot shower although soothing, is harsh to the skin. This washes off the natural moisture of our skin and dries it. It is only one of the problems. If you have oily skin, during winter, this may become normal. But if you have normal skin, the tendency is for it to become dry. Solutions for this are to apply milder cleansing and choose rich moisturizers.
Emollients are the most important for skin care during this season. It does not only moisturize and softens your skin but also forms a protective layer to its surface to keep the moisture locked and prevents the skin from dehydration.
