The biggest problem skin faces during winter is the changing temperatures. To help skin cope with these changing temperatures, switch to products with more nourishing ingredients such as Vitamin E or nut oils and with added vitamins and anti-oxidants.

Moisturizing must be a daily habit in any season whether that is winter, spring, summer or fall. The best time to moisturize is after a bath or shower for it absorbs moisture better. You only have three minutes to stop the evaporation of water from the skin so you better act fast. The skin dries out when too much water evaporates from the surface. Each time you wash your body, face, and hands it removes the layer of natural oil on the skin surface so moisturizer should be applied after. Soap should be avoided as it may dry skin further. Instead a gentle moisturising cleanser should be used. Cetaphil by Galderma has a wide range of products that best fits all skin types and all seasons especially during cold months when our skin is dry, chapped and flaky. From cleansers, shampoo, Ultra Hydrating lotion to Therapeutic hand cream Cetaphil helps retain the water seeping up from the deeper layers of the skin. It is advisable to apply lotion to your body twice a day; once in the morning and again at night. Keeping a lotion on your bag or on your purse is also a must so you can apply it anytime, anywhere.
