6 Natural Tips for Winter Skin Care

Winter brings snow, below freezing temperatures, and strong winds that can all leave your skin dry, cracked, and seeking moisture. Taking extra special care of your skin in the winter is essential, so we’ve outlined some helpful natural tips to keep your winter skin care routine in check.

Hydration is Key

Hydration is your best friend in the winter! Hydrating your skin, inside and out, can help with the dryness your skin faces during harsh winter months. Staying hydrated with at least 8 glasses of water a day will help prevent and curb dryness, as well as boosting the skin’s elasticity. By keeping your body hydrated, your skin will naturally follow suit. If you struggle with getting in your daily H20, try putting lemon or cucumber in your water to add a little bit of flavor.

Pick a Richer Moisturizer

During the Summer you may find that you’re using a lighter moisturizer to help with oily, sweaty skin. You’ll want to swap this lighter moisturizer for a rich, oil-based one during the winter months. This will help seal water in your skin and will keep it more moisturized than water-based face lotions. Éclatant botanicals has a variety of different organic moisturizers that each carry certain benefits for each season.

Humidity is Your Friend

Winter naturally brings low humidity, but your heater can also decrease the humidity as well, leaving skin feeling dry and unnourished. A good humidifier in the winter is your best friend! Investing in a humidifier, or a couple throughout the house, will immensely help your winter skin care. If you’re only able to get one, we suggest keeping it in your bedroom as your skin goes through natural healing processes each night.

Nourish with Veggies

It’s all about nourishing and hydrating from the inside out. Vegetables like cucumbers and celery naturally contain a lot of water — which makes them a perfect snack when you’re trying to keep your skin hydrated. Orange and yellow veggies are also great for your skin due to the large amounts of beta-carotene found in these vegetables.

Fuel with Fats

Eating foods like avocados, fish, nuts, and seeds provide the body with monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats that act as a natural moisturizer for the skin and improves its elasticity. Fish also contains omega-3 and omega-6 fats that encourage the body to produce anti-inflammatory compounds that have been proven to improve inflammatory skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis that can flare up in the dry, Winter season.

Avoid Chemical-Filled Soaps

Naturally, we’re an advocate for avoiding chemical-filled products, and this holds especially true when your skin is drying out in the cold winter months. Choosing natural, green skin care products will help keep your skin hydrated. We carry a number of facial cleansers, moisturizers and creams, and serums that contain several healthy vitamins and ingredients from plants that can turn your winter skin care routine around.  

By utilizing the above natural skincare tips, your skin will be ready and hydrated throughout the winter season.
