Top Sneaky Ways To Keep Moisture In Your Body In Winter

Weather is already changing and it getting really chilly. This doesn't mean you should buy new boots only, but it also means to start applying extra things to protect your skin from drying. Today I'll share top sneaky steps celebrities do to protect their skin from dryness during winter.



Get away From Alcohol
This doesn't mean drinks which you should get away from due to all bad effects it have on body, mind, and skin. What you should really avoid is having skin products like toners and cleaners with alcohol in it, check your current cosmetics' label and if they have any alcohol types (other than lanolin, stearyl, and acetyl which are totally okay), then you should keep them to spring. you need to do that because alcohol is very hard ingredient that can remove humidity and moisture from your skin and we don't that to happen.
Take a warm shower
I know that it's the best thing in winter when you can have hot shower and enjoy the warmth, but actually is very harmful especially when you have a dry skin.
So if you can bear, try to lower down the heat few degrees only and have a warm shower instead for hot shower. Don't forget to apply some moisturizing lotion as well when you're in.
Invest in a Humidifier
Winter makes the air hard on your skin so, buy a humidifier in your house to get back moist to it. If you can't do so or it is difficult for you to plug such advice at home, then you can consider having plants in the room. Plants work as a natural humidifier as they get almost 90% of water you pour into them in the shape of moisture and Oxygen. Spider plants and bamboo are really great natural humidifier.
Depending on your skin type, choose cosmetics that work for it and apply simple at home masks that works for your skin type.
Personally, I love to prepare masks that contains yogurt, it is very moisturizing and can work for all skin types. My favourite yogurt mask is very simple, just beat some yogurt and apply it to your face for 15 minutes or until it’s dry, and then wash it off. I just can say that this is the best.
Another very good mask is corn flower mask, to prepare it, add about two table spoons of corn flour with some water or milk and mix them into a paste and spread on your face for 15 minutes.
