Winter Anti-Aging Skincare Tips

Every season can bring changes to your skin. Therefore it is important to switch up your skin-care routine for every season but especially for Winter which can bring dryness, roughness, and other conditions to the skin. To keep slow down signs of aging follow these tips for Winter Anti-Aging Skincare Tips. Winter Anti-Aging Skincare Tips: #1 Always wear a sunscreen preferably in your moisturizer. People have a tendency to stop wearing an spf in the Winter but the truth is that your skin gets sun all year long. Many people don't realize that you get sun even while you are driving, hence why the left side of your face typically has more sun damage than the right side. It is important to wear a moisturizer with a minimum SPF 30 that is full broad spectrum UVA/UVB. The best anti-aging routine is to always wear a sunscreen as sun damage accounts for 90% of signs of aging. I like the SkinMedica Daily Defense SPF 30. #2: Add a night-time moisturizer In the winter season the weather can cause dryness to the skin. Even if you have only used a daytime moisturizer, the Winter is a good time to consider adding a night time moisturizer this will give your skin the extra hydration it needs. If the skin is dry and gets a dehydrated look it tends to appear older than hydrated skin. I prefer night-time moisturizers that contain shea butter. #3: Give your hands better hydration The hands can be one of the first of areas to show age and they get the most wear-they are constantly being washed, dried with soap etc. The skin on your hands is thinner than on most parts of the body and has fewer oil glands. That means it's harder to keep your hands moist, especially in cold, dry weather. This can lead to itchiness, cracking, and eventually wrinkles. It is important to use moisturizers and sunscreen on your hands as well as your face. For more information on Winter Anti-Aging Skincare Tips go to www.winterparklaser.com
