Are winter weather and the stressful holiday season bringing you down? Check out these tips beauty gurus and dermatologists swear by.
SPF every day. It's an obvious one, but no matter the weather, your skin colour or skin type, using a moisturizer with SPF under your foundation will aid in preventing sun spots.
“Even in the winter, you need sunblock. Ice and snow magnify the UVB and UVC rays,” says Dr. Stephen Mulholland, renowned cosmetic surgeon. “UVB and UVC rays can lead to damage worse than a sunburn, resulting in discolouration and thinning of the top layers of the skin.”
Eat the colours of the rainbow. A balanced diet is essential for good skin. Eating plenty of fruits and vegetables rich in antioxidants can curb the damage caused by free radicals that accelerate aging in your skin. To maintain a healthy glow, incorporate vegetables of different colours in every meal. For something quick, try juicing your veggies for a delicious morning pick-me-up.
Make time for self-care. Finding the time to de-stress and pamper yourself can make all the difference for your skin. Take time to indulge in “me time,” whether that means a relaxing bath or regular skin maintenance with at-home devices like the Silk'n Titan. This revolutionary handheld device gives you all the advantages of professional-quality skin tightening and rejuvenation without a costly visit to the dermatologist.
