If dry skin is a problem for you then extra care is needed in during the cold weather time. The advice tips for skin care and the products to use, will help you to look after your skin when the weather is at it winter coldest. You’ll be glad you gave your skin the extra attention it needed during the winter season once the warmer months arrive and you are ready to show some extra skin.

Obtain and maintain healthier, better conditioned skin by following this informative list of top 5 cold weather beauty products advice tips:

1) Hot water strips your skin of natural oils required for proper moisture balance so avoid taking excessively hot showers and baths during the cold snaps. I am not suggesting that anyone takes a cold shower (unless you are a masochist), but a comfortable luke-warm temperature would be the best bet.

2) Avoid any unnatural ingredients or skin care products, and anything containing oil, alcohol or anything with fragrance.

3) Wash with warm water followed by a milky moisturizer such as Elemis while skin is still damp. Make sure that you wash the skin first before applying any products, to ensure that no impurities are trapped below the products.

4) Put plenty of extra layers of clothing on when venturing outside in the cold weather. The skin will dry out quicker when the weather is colder rather than in hotter weather. Each layer creates that extra insulation, by trapping a layer of air close to the body. For bald men, ensure that you cover your head, as the scalp can suffer cold weather damage. Without hair, there is no insulating layer and the body’s natural heat is quickly dispersed.

5) It is wise to use a heavy moisturiser like Gatineau Nutriactive Nourishing Day Cream and apply it to hands, feet and elbows.
