As we get closer to the end of the year and the days are getting colder, we must remember to take care of our largest organ…the skin!
Utilizing a skincare regimen is something that we should do year round, but during the winter our skin may need some extra love. When the temperature and humidity drop, moisture is taken out of the skin, which can leave us feeling dry and even cracked. Cooler temperatures can also cause certain skin conditions, like eczema, to flare up.
The best way to keep your hands feeling soft and smooth is to be mindful of your hand washing and use a rich moisturizer. Make sure to wash your hands with warm water instead of hot, and use a gentle cleanser that won’t strip your skin of its natural oils. If your skin begins to crack, apply moisturizer before bed and wear gloves or socks overnight to lock in the moisture. We love the Hempz lotion and carry it in a variety of scents and sizes!
For your facial skin care needs, we recommend using a hyaluronic acid as well as a moisturizer at least once per day. We currently have Skincare Starter Kits for dry, oily and combo skin for only $49, a $69 value! Each kit contains a travel size cleanser and toner, a full size moisturizer, and a free spa facial!
