It is not inevitable to have dry winter skin! You may be able to keep your skin soft, smooth, and vibrant all winter long by making some changes to your skin care regimen and habits, as well as using the right products.
The cold air steals moisture from your skin during this time of year, causing it to become dry, itchy, and irritable. Most women are unsure whether they can maintain their smooth and glowing skin in such circumstances. If you are one of them, we are here to give you some much needed tips that will save your skin!
Let’s begin with the basics:
- Hydrate your skin: It is so important to keep your dry skin hydrated regularly, and it includes both internal and external hydration. Meaning, drink tons of water because it will make your skin look healthier. Make sure to also use hydrating moisturizers or cream that have a high level of water content or similar. Not taking in enough fluid can affect the appearance of your skin and also make it more susceptible to drying out.
- Oil your hair regularly: during winters our scalp tends to become dry, flaky, and prone to dandruff due to which we sometimes may skip out of oiling hair. but it is important to nourish the scalp with different oils and natural ingredients that will soothe the scalp. If you ask your dadi/nani she will give you her ancestral hair oil recipe, that is made with tons of hair friendly ingredients. However, don’t overdo it with the oil, once a week is good enough or else going too hard results in build up on scalp. And post that make sure to wash off that oil using our Untangled Shampoo and Hydrating conditioner
- Choose the correct products: during winter it is easy to mistake your combination skin for dry or otherwise. Due to the cold, it is common for all skin types to face dry, cracked, or capped skin. Hence make sure to use products made for your skin and consisting of natural ingredients that don’t hurt your skin barrier. For e.g.: our dry skin cleanser is formulated with Pomegranate, Tulsi, Almond, Hibiscus, Rose and more! This cleanser does the job and maintains your skins pH levels while restoring moisturize. https://www.curlcure.in/productirani/dry-skin-face-cleanser-100-natural-do-it-yourself
