In autumn, our skin is exposed to severe stress: cold wind, rains, dry air of a heated room - all this does not have the best effect on its condition. It peels off, loses its tone and shine. Therefore, caring for her in the cold period should be special. Let's figure out how and select the appropriate range of products.

Dryness from temperature changes, peeling, irritation, rashes, dull complexion, decreased skin tone - this is what can expect us in the fall (and the closer to winter, the situation can only get worse). And in exactly the same way as we change clothes for warmer ones in the cold season, in order to protect the body, we need to change our facial skin care. And since her main "clothing" is cosmetics, it is she who is responsible for the condition of the skin, and the regularity of its use, of course.

recovery

In the fall, the skin is not simply moisturized. Therefore, creams, serums and gels marked "revitalizing" should settle on your dressing table. They contain more fatty components that help the skin to cope with cold weather. However, with the application of such creams, it is important not to overdo it - too much can clog the pores, which will go to the skin not as a plus, but only as a minus. Not only creams, but also masks should be restorative. They will help the skin "recover" after being in the cold.

nutrition

Another note that you should pay attention to when choosing a product is “nutritious”. Especially useful nourishing masks. It is only important to do them no later than three hours before bedtime, otherwise in the morning you risk waking up with a swollen face.

exfoliation

The top layer of skin cells must be constantly renewed. This relieves flaking and makes the complexion look fresher. However, with peels and scrubs, it is important not to overdo it. Such procedures, if carried out more often than once a week, can only aggravate the flaking and irritation of the skin. Choose more gentle products. After exfoliation, it will be ideal to use a nourishing mask, and, of course, soothing and nourishing creams.

cleansing

Cleansing the skin during this period should also be gentle. Choose mild products and avoid alcohol-containing products as much as possible - they are very dry to the skin.

eyes and lips

When caring for your face, it is important not to forget about the skin of the eyes and lips, especially since it is thinner, which means that it is even more susceptible to damage. Use moisturizing eye creams and don't go out on the windy street without lip balm (or look for a lipstick with a nurturing effect - many brands make these today). Once a week, you can exfoliate the skin of the lips with a light massage with a toothbrush, the main thing is to immediately apply a moisturizer after such a massage.

Not only outside, but also inside

Of course, it is not enough just to use creams to keep the skin glowing and toned. The condition of the skin depends on what we eat. Therefore, do not forget about vegetables and fruits, and also take vitamins. Vitamin A makes the skin elastic and silky, E supplies oxygen and slows down the formation of wrinkles, C promotes the active formation of collagen fibers that regenerate the skin. The skin also needs B vitamins. Vitamin B1 prevents premature aging of the skin, B2 improves complexion, B9 protects the skin from the harmful effects of the environment. Vitamin D slows down the aging process of the skin, keeping it tone and youthful. And this is not a complete list.
