Happy Friday Everyone!
How are you taking approaches on preventing damage from the winter weather?
Here are a couple of my favorite must do's for having fabulous skin for the fall/winter seasons:
1. Make sure you are using a cleanser that has the right pH balance to it. You want it to be close to your natural pH of the 4.5-5.5pH as possible. Taking the pH of your natural skins barrier is damaging. Keeping it calm and familiar will do wonders.
2. Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate! Even those of you with oily/combo skin. If you are at a constant state of dry then your sebaceous glands are in overdrive to keep your skin balanced causing more harm than good. Use a emollient moisturizer for those of your on the dryer side. For those oily/combo acne prone clients use a medicated moisturizer with a salicylic or sulfur with hylauronic acid, grape seed extract, Retinyl Palmitate. Product to try- For dry skin types: Murad Essential-C Night Moisture ( even OK if you are acne-prone)
3. Make sure you are EXFOLIATING throughout the fall/winter months. As the seasons begin to change so does our skin. Which means dry, ashy, rough texture. NO! Who says you have to look dull during the fall/winter. If you are exfoliating properly then your skin will look fresh and dewy all season.
These are my protocols that I go by to ensure that I have healthy skin throughout the fall/winter seasons.
I am all for education so if any of you have any questions, or would like to add what your protocols are I am all ears!
Have a Fab Friday and a Wonderful Weekend!
See you at the Spa!
