The cold and the wind, the dry air of heated rooms and constant temperature changes as we come in and out of the street require us to provide the skin with added protection.
Our skin, adapting to these colder weather conditions, changes quite dramatically in it its basic properties. Cold weather and reduced daylight decrease our skin's production of sebum.

Face care at winter : choosing means for care
If possible, try to use the range of cosmetics sullied by one trusted company . Even very high-quality cosmetics used haphazardly, can cause allergies. If you change the cosmetic line that you opt for, go for the better one. And after all these years of caring for your face it is recommended to use pharmaceutical cosmetics. This should be adopted as your general rule. Let's now move forward to discuss the particular details.
Facial scrubs should be used at any time of year. But after such a procedure it is not recommended to go out into the cold. Therefore in winter it is better to use Gommage, that is a creamy peeling. This tool does not require rinsing with water. When it is gently rolled down off the face, Gommage carries with it keratinized skin particles and the peeling material, without hurting or further damaging the skin. This is its main difference and advantage over the more abrasive based scrubs .
Application of moisturizers for the face is also needed throughout the year, but in winter such a cream can be applied only at night or on those occasions when you are not going outside afterwards. In this cold period it is best to use one which is based on thermal water.
Winter time moisturisers should be nutritious, regardless of your skin type.The frequency of application varies: for dry and sensitive skin, use masks 2-3 times a week , for oily or combination skin it is sufficient to use them once a week.
Do not forget about cosmetics for extra protection. These creams are not used every day. But if you're planning to take a long walk or going skiing, stock up on a greasy cream which is specially designed to protect the skin from the cold.
Skin care in winter: choose a salon treatment
In a good beauty salon their specialists will carefully pick out the series of procedures, needed for your problems and skin type. In the winter, these problems have their own characteristics and a specialist can advise you: . To cope with temperature changes, low humidity and the harmful effects of cold winds , spa treatments and facial massage will do wonders for your face. In winter, more than ever your skin deserves investment of time and money in order for you to look your best .
We can also look at this season in another way. When the sun is mostly obscured behind the clouds it is probably the best time to consider serious procedures such as laser polishing, rejuvenation and deep chemical peels. The recovery period in winter may require you to stay at home, but in the spring or summer, after such therapies you do not have a chance to do so without risking sunburn. Winter time is the best time for healing after plastic surgery or from a facelift to change the shape of your lips, nose and ears.

With a little effort, you will still find time to enjoy the changes that the winter brings and you will be able to provide your skin with what it needs for it to be able to withstand harsh conditions.
