The holidays have come and gone, leaving behind sparkly memories and…flaky, dry skin? Winter seems determined to steal our holiday glow, with harsh winds, plummeting temperatures, and indoor heating sucking the moisture right out of our faces. And if you thought dry skin was the only unwelcome guest this season, think again. Winter can actually trigger pesky breakouts, even for those with naturally dry complexions.
Why the Winter Blues for Your Skin?
Here’s the culprit: our skin’s natural defense mechanism. When faced with the icy assault, our bodies try to compensate by producing more oil. This can clog pores and lead to blemishes, even on dry skin. The dry air itself also wreaks havoc, stripping away essential moisture and leaving your skin feeling tight and looking like a map of the Sahara.
From Chapped Chagrin to Proactiv‘s Champion Glow
So, how do we ditch the winter blues for our skin? While hiding under a cashmere blanket is tempting, Proactiv offers a brighter solution. Here’s how to fight back against winter’s harsh effects and maintain a healthy, radiant glow:
- Hydration Hero: Ditch the hot showers and embrace lukewarm baths. Opt for gentle, hydrating cleansers and moisturizers rich in hyaluronic acid and ceramides. Proactiv‘s Adapting Hydrator is a winter warrior, packing a powerful punch of moisture without feeling greasy. Its lightweight formula sinks in like a dream, leaving your skin feeling plump and dewy, not just in summer, but all year round!
