How to recover after the winter: 8 proven funds
One of the most problematic periods for the skin and the whole body as a whole - the current pseudo foul season. After winter, hair and skin dry, strength, despite the weather, for some reason is not enough for anything - and despite the fact that you always want to look good. To survive this time with maximum comfort, we collected eight useful and affordable tools for everyone.
Individual cream
We all roughly represent the needs of our skin (moisturize, mate, clean), but who is able to say how intense care should be, and most importantly, what to do with this knowledge? Our answer is to approach responsibly and not just buy yourself another cream according to the reviews, but mix the one that is necessary for your skin. This can be done with at least two brands: Sepai and IOMA. In the case of the first one, it is necessary to determine the condition of the skin itself or with the help of a Cosmotheca consultant, and IOMA makes it possible to obtain free hardware skin diagnostics and mix personal IOMA Ma Crème on its basis.
Scholl Pedicure Turbopilka
Even for those who usually have everything OK with their skin, winter with elastic tights and heating can spoil the picture. If you have not ventured to acid peeling and are not ready to go for a week in socks, you can buy a power saw, which really does everything itself. The device is laughterlessly simple: a rough roller is turned on with one button and gently removes coarse skin. The manufacturer advises not to treat one area of skin for more than 4 seconds, and rightly so - it is better not to overdo it. Separately, praise the foot cream of the same brand - paired with a saw, as well as separately, it works with a bang.
Massage brush
The easiest and non-binding way to slightly tighten the skin and make it ten times (ok, much) smoother - daily rub it with a dry brush for the shower. True, we advise you not to press too hard, that is, to press it at first - sensitive skin can only be scratched in this way, and the effect will not double. With such an uncomplicated 5-minute massage, you can finish everything that the tasty-smelling, but not too effective body scrubs are lacking (however, we don’t want to give up the latter).
Lightweight foundation
After boiling heavily into dense creams, it is especially cool to get into translucent tonal or tinted moisturizers. Yes, they have a coating that is not as dense as that of conventional products, but we believe that in the spring it is much more important to protect the skin from the sun (and a sufficient SPF filter is built into most tints) and not to steam too much - including natural skin imperfections.
Enzyme facial peeling
We have already written that cold temperatures are not a reason to abandon thorough cleansing of the skin. At the same time, we understand that it is very easy to overdo it with exfoliation, therefore we recommend switching to enzyme peels - they do not contain abrasive particles and are very careful even to sensitive skin. We like, for example, Sampar Equalizing Foam Peel - not only does it look and smell like "maselko filled with good", it works in just two minutes.
Low molecular weight hyaluronic acid
We also wrote about hyaluronic acid more than once, it is a good support in the daily care system. It can be implemented in different ways: choose the means where it has already been added or is the only or main active component. Pay attention: if financial opportunities allow, choose low molecular weight acid - it penetrates deeper into the skin and moisturizes it well (however, it is an order of magnitude more expensive).
Supplements
We will not take the responsibility to recommend any vitamins or other supplements, but we emphasize their importance. If there should be no problems with waking up in the spring (it is too early), then the state of health in general leaves much to be desired. Now is the time to find and begin to regularly take supplements that are suitable for you, if these were “pops” for Helvesana or Berokk’s energy, without which the editorial staff would be much worse for us.
Universal oil
The general rule for cold temperatures is this: means must not only moisturize, but also nourish. In an ideal world, oily butters and creams are not only absorbed for two hours, but also fully satisfy the needs of the skin, but in practice this is not always the case. Those who are not against the oils, deal with this injustice easier: you can buy any one you like and add it in the right quantity to your usual cream. So we will win.
