The winter months are upon us and as soon as the cold weather will arrive, your perfectly plump skin will start to turn dry. Even before you know it, your skin will begin to feel the effects of the cold. The dry wind will make your skin feel rough and you can find skin flakes. For people who have extremely dry and sensitive skin, winter is a harrowing time. But, just covering yourself in store-bought moisturizer is not enough. Also, they don’t last for very long. So, Nirvana Naturopathy & Retreat’s naturopathy expert decided to offer some natural tips by which you can keep your skin feeling refreshed and soft throughout the winter season.
ALWAYS STAY HYDRATED
Our naturopathy specialists at the yoga retreat and meditation centre understand that people generally consume less water during the winter, but that is a wrong practice. You need to stay hydrated even during the winter months. In fact, one of the main causes for your skin turning dry during winter is because of lack of water.
EAT A LOT OF VEGGIES
During winter, people tend to eat a lot and since the weather is comfortable, people eat more than what they normally should. Also, there is a lot of meat consumption. But, the metabolism rate during cold dips down, which means that you need to cut down on junk and protein-rich food and stick to veggies. Eating a lot of seasonal veggies can help you keep your skin hydrated and glowing.
CONSUME A LOT OF OMEGA-3 FAT
Omega-3 fatty acids contain anti-inflammatory properties. These good fats help to protect the skin from damage caused by the sun. They also help to strengthen the cell membranes and help to seal the moisture. So, include it as part of your meal and naturally moisturize your skin from within.
DO NOT BATHE FOR TOO LONG USING HOT WATER
Having hot baths during winter might be tempting, but it is not good for your skin. It can rob your skin of essential moistures. So, bathe using moderate-temperature water and cut down on the time. Shorter showers will keep your skin healthy.
