Autumn – It's time to properly moisturize and nourish the skin. On the one hand, this must be done because in autumn the air becomes drier and colder, and the wind – stronger. On the other – this season you need to prepare the skin to avoid flaking and dryness in winter, as it needs time to be saturated with minerals and moisturize.
New – this is a well-forgotten old one!
New creams and lotions appear on store shelves every season. Manufacturers talk about innovative technologies and a stunning effect, but it is worth remembering that most often even the most expensive creams use the simplest, but proven ingredients. So your best bet is to look for moisturizers that contain glycerin, petroleum jelly, urea, or hyaluronic acid.
These ingredients are the best at retaining moisture and are found in even the cheapest moisturizers. Moreover, the products containing these components are able to restore the cells of the stratum corneum of the skin that have been damaged by external factors. This is another reason to choose products based on these components.
Apply to wet skin!
It is best to apply moisturizer to the skin immediately after cleansing. Thanks to this, a double nourishment of the skin will be obtained. This applies to moisturizing all areas of the skin, not just the face. After the air temperature drops significantly, moisturizing procedures will need to be carried out at least 30 minutes before going outside.
Very dry skin requires special care. There is a good way to moisturize it. After applying the cream, you need to put a small cotton cloth on the skin area, and on top of it – dry. Leave such a compress for at least 15 minutes. This technique will allow the skin to really absorb moisture. It is best to use it once a week. The result will be visible after the first treatment.
Indispensable hydration
Moisturizing cream cannot be replaced with another cream. This must be remembered once and for all. No remedy, be it acne lotion or eye cream, is suitable. They can only complement the action of a moisturizer, but not replace it. For dry skin, it is best to choose an oil-based moisturizer, and for oily – oils are best avoided.
In the new season – new skin type
Skin can behave differently in every season. In summer, it is more oily due to the natural release of fats, and in autumn it can become drier. Therefore, it is worth taking a closer look at the means that were used in the summer. If now they have lost their effectiveness, then this means that the skin has changed type and you need to choose another remedy.
Extra care
Kuticle oil should be added to the usual care of the skin of the hands and feet. Moreover, it is very important to rub it not only into the cuticles on the hands, but also on the legs. This will make your nails stronger and healthier. It is best to do this procedure several times a week throughout this season and next.
Schedule needed!
Additional procedures in the new season will take additional time. In order not to get confused in them and not to forget anything, it is worth creating a schedule. Divide all procedures into days of the week so that there is enough time for everything. Longer procedures are best left for the weekend.
Thanks to this principle, the transition to the new season will be quick and easy!
