Fall Skin Care Hacks: 3 Things You Need To Combat Winter Skin

 Winter weather is no match for radiant skin – from dull complexions to dry skin, the lack of moisture in the air can really take a toll your body’s largest organ.  Fortunately, there are ways to prevent these skin care woes from getting the best of your complexion.  Ahead, discover three things you need to combat Santa Clarita’s notorious dry winter weather – and all yearlong.

A Humidifier
Humidifiers are not just for winter colds – they’re for skin care, too!  Because of their ability to add moisture into the air, these cold fighting devices can be used to combat both dry climates and dry skin.  To reap the skin care benefits of a humidifier, keep one in your bedroom and turn it on before going to bed.  As you sleep, the skin works to repair and revitalize itself – a humidifier can help the process by turning your bedroom into a hydrating, skin-soothing climate.

Facial Spray
Adding a facial spray – like Mario Badescu’s Facial Spray With Aloe, Herbs and Rosewater – to your collection of skin care products can provide your skin with repairing moisture in both the winter months and all year-round.  Formulated to give your skin a boost of hydration, facial sprays work to revitalize the complexion in dehydrating climates, soothe the skin after a hard workout – or a winter pool day – and prepare it for moisture.  You can even use them to set your daily makeup for a fresh, dewy look.

Coconut Oil
If there is one natural remedy that every skin care addict swears by, it’s organic, unrefined coconut oil.  Coconut oil is a hydration powerhouse and is jam-packed with skin protecting antioxidants that promote radiant skin and youthful complexions.  You can use it as a scalp treatment, body lotion, facial oil, deep hair conditioner and more!  Pick up a jar of this multi-use, beauty-enhancing oil at your local grocery store and see for yourself.
