Unfortunately…However there are ways to keep your skin looking and feeling good… There is a lot less humidity in the atmosphere during this great season, causing anything from sever skin irritation to flaky scalp to chapped lips!!
Skin- As always.. moisturize, moisturize, moisturize… You should always use cream with sun protection.. summer or winter.. Do not skip night cream!! EVER! But make sure to pick a richer facial moisturizer for the winter and apply it to damp skin. - Exfoliate lightly to remove flaky skin ( once a week is good)- Use a mild cleanser and rise with lukewarm water.- Unless you have very oily skin, skip the toner. - In some cases, using a humidifier in the house helps putting moisture back in the air.
Makeup - Try a slightly softer mascara like a dark purple or dark brown- Smokey eyes look best in summer.. do a cinnamon or coffee one..Or be daring and try a nice shade of eggplant. - You might want to use a creamy blusher.. but too much shimmer in the winter can look shinny and glaring. - For the finished look, matte foundation is better for the cold season.
Lips - For every day look, nudes or a bit of your concealer with some lip balm look great!- For a night look, deep red or warm red/brown look real good in winter and adds life to the face.- Lip balm rocks!! Chapstick, BurtBees or even the $.99 Avon one all work real well. As long as you seal the moisture and provide protection from the wind. You need to up your routine just a bit to make sure you keep the skin protect and well kept for the best season ever!! SUMMER!!!
