why just drinking water won’t keep your skin hydrated this winter!
Why just drinking water won’t keep your skin hydrated in the Minnesota Winters. DON’T STOP drinking water, but it’s not going to be enough to fully prevent dry skin when cold weather hits. When the temperature drops, outside humidity levels and extreme elements have a greater effect on epidermal water loss than water consumption.
Use these tips to make sure your skin is protected:
Run a cool or warm mist humidifier all day/might in your house.
Use a Hydrating Serum day and night to prevent transepidermal water loss. We recommend using @gloskinbeauty Daily Hydration+. It has Hyaluronic acid in it that binds to water molecules, which helps keep the skin hydrated and supple. We naturally have Hyaluronic acid in our skin, but as we age we have less and less of it.
At nighttime use a richer cream to lock in moisture. Try one of Glo Skin Beauty’s richer moisturizers depending on your skin concern.
