Winter Skin Care Tips for Beautiful Skin

10:44:00 AM
Once the weather has turned crisp and people start bundling up from the cold, most skin care regimes go out of the window. Skin takes a beating during the winter months and becomes tight, dry, dull and lacklustre from neglect and adverse weather conditions. Some people even develop skin conditions such as flaking, cracking and eczema. The secret to beautiful skin during the summer months is to keep up skincare regimes all year round and that includes during the frigid winter months.
One skincare routine that most people stop during winter is the religious application of sunscreen. Despite the lack of sunshine, skin can still be damaged during winter by harmful UV rays and glare from snow, causing wrinkles and aging especially in the fine skin around the eyes. Sunscreen should still be applied on a daily basis - use a broad spectrum sunscreen and apply it to all exposed areas, including the hands and face at least half an hour before going outside.
Skin also needs intensive moisturization during winter. Skin loses its natural oils because of the harsh weather conditions and indoor heating which saps the skin of its natural hydration, making it more fragile and prone to damage. The body and face should be moisturized on a daily basis, especially those areas that are covered up by winter woollies, as this will stop the skin from drying out and will maintain the natural oils.
Sometimes the facial moisturizer that worked well in the summer months will need to be changed in the harsher winter months. An oil based moisturizer should be considered as the oil will create a protective layer and will retain more moisture. However, care should be taken in choosing the type of oil because some clog the pores and cause even more skin problems.
Non-clogging oils such as avocado, mineral, sandalwood or primrose should be used and Shea oil should be avoided. Look for products containing humectants - these are substances such as glycerine, sorbitol and alpha-hydroxy acids which draw moisture into the skin and keep it hydrated. Apply a specialized eye area cream nightly to keep the eye contour area looking plumped up and fresh.
Hot showers and baths can also damage the skin by stripping it of its natural acid mantel, which leads to dry skin. Taking cooler baths and shorter showers will help to maintain the skin's natural defences and lipid barriers and will help to prevent that winter crocodile skin. Oatmeal or baking soda in the bath can help relieve itchiness. Indoor heating dries out the air, so a humidifier might be useful in preventing the skin from drying out.
The skin on the hands and feet is also affected by winter cold because the cold and dry weather strips away what little moisture the hands hold. Hands and fingers can become dry, cracked and itchy so gloves should always be worn when outside. Don't use wet gloves or socks as these also cause cracking. Moisturize the hands and feet every night before going to sleep with an intensive moisturizing butter that contains petroleum jelly or glycerine.

Ways to Remove Wrinkles Around Mouth

7:17:00 AM
Most women around the world are concerned about how they look and want to age gracefully. When wrinkles start to form, some of the most noticeable places for these fine lines to occur are at the corners of the eyes and mouth. Women are constantly looking for ways to chase away those pesky wrinkles. But until we discover the fountain of youth, we will have to rely on manufactured and homemade skin care products. As such, learning ways to remove wrinkles around mouth and other parts of the face is important if you wish to get beautiful skin today.
The most popular solution to the wrinkle problems is to use anti-wrinkle creams. Because most people want to look young and beautiful no matter what age they are, there are tons of wrinkle creams available for both men and women. In fact, anti-aging and anti-wrinkle creams are so popular that new products come out all the time and you cannot even turn on a television without seeing a commercial for anti-aging cream.
Most creams work because they use collagen, a natural substance that is found in the body under the skin to keep it firm. These creams work by sealing in and reducing the appearances of fine lines and wrinkles. There are special creams available for the wrinkles around your mouth. If these kinds of wrinkles are a big problem for you, you may want to consider getting a cream designed to get rid of these specific wrinkles.
A great way to avoid getting wrinkles around the mouth is to stop smoking if you do. In order to smoke you have to pucker your lips and doing this over and over for years will cause lines to appear around the mouth. Smoking also causes other cosmetic defects to the face and mouth that can eventually lead to premature aging. Therefore, if you want to help prevent premature aging you should stop smoking.
If you want to avoid damaging your skin you should develop the habit of wearing sunscreen at a young age. You should never go out of the house without using some kind of sun protection. Sun will damage skin cells and cause the collagen under the skin to break down and deteriorate. When your collagen starts to deteriorate you will notice that certain places in your skin are sagging, causing lines and wrinkles especially around the mouth.
Make sure to take good care of your skin especially the areas around the mouth and the corners of the eyes. You should make it a habit of exfoliating your skin about twice a week. I suggest using a natural product for this process, one of the best recipes that I have found that works really well is mashed strawberries. Exfoliation will also help your skin absorb the anti-wrinkle creams.
You should also make gradual changes to your life style. There are many ways to prevent premature aging, including exercising. As long as you use good products to help reduce the appearance of fine line and wrinkles you will see the wrinkles around your mouth slowly start to disappear. Make sure that you talk to your doctor before embarking on any fitness or exercise routine.
Follow these simple tips, and in no time you'll be kissing those wrinkles around your mouth goodbye!
