FALL Dry Skin Fix

We all know mother nature is coming with a vengeance and the winter season is arising!  I don't know about you but my skin is twice as high maintenance during this season.  I thing i learned that is muy importante is that you CAN'T use the same products on your skin that you were using during the Spring/Summer.  TRUE statement!  

If your skin suffers from dryness, itching, eczema, psoriasis, or just plain o'le ashy.  Here's the solution!  First thing is to gently EXFOLIATE in the shower with warm water.  Easy enough right?  Make sure you pick out a MOISTURIZING soap/shower gel/etc that has micro beads and use a LOOFAH.  

  

Also look for soaps with original or UNSCENTED without all that fancy shmancy complicated scents.  Hard to do since we all want to smell that nice scent while showering.  

 

Next, you want to towel pat dry and immediately after bathing/showering apply lotion!  LOTION, LOTION, LOTION!  After that nice exfoliating action we want to make sure that we replenish moisture back into the skin so that the barrier can be protected from the harsh weather.  The best and most effective product on the market that has been tested and labeled by the "Good Housekeeping" award seal is Eucerin!

Eucerin is expensive yes I know, but its worth every penny!  I have seen Eucerin used at Dermatologist offices and hospitals.  Why? because they know what works!  Wouldn't you rather purchase a product that is effective than a waste of $$$ just because it is a bargain buy?  This lotion is best because it targets the problem without all the extra additives or scents that can IRRITATE the skin.  So make sure the lotion is UNSCENTED or ORIGINAL.  If you want to smell good after showering that's what deodorants and perfumes are for right?  

Happy Skin and Happy Lotioning!
