Beauty Essentials you must have this winter

Winter is known as the holiday season around the world, and it is especially celebrated as the wedding season in Pakistan. It's that time of year when you want to look glamorous but are preoccupied with a flaky scalp, red knuckles, cracked heels, and dry skin. Here are some beauty tips to help you focus on more important things this winter rather than dryness.

Sun protection is crucial.

Even in the winter, you need to protect yourself from the sun's harmful UVA rays because 80% of these rays make it through the cloud cover.

Sunscreen can help to reverse the damage done by winter in the form of wrinkles and dullness by adding elasticity to your skin.

So winter is reaching, and I genuinely love this season. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do because who doesn't enjoy cold nights, warm blankets, hot chocolates, strong coffee, large sweaters, soft cute socks, and many other winter activities

But, with these warm days, comes a problem with dry skin. As the snowflakes begin to fall during the winter, our skin flakes begin to appear on our faces. Do not be concerned; every problem has a solution.

I'm going to tell you about the best winter beauty essentials that will solve your problem and allow you to have moisturized skin even in cold weather. You are only a few steps away from having healthy-looking, glowing skin in the winter. A few of these beauty essentials are also appropriate for men. So you can suggest it to your father, husband, son, or any other male you know. Let us now delve into the subject.

BALM FOR LIPS

Your lips are the first thing to suffer during the winter. Carry a good hydrating lip balm with you wherever you go. Maybelline Baby Lips moisturize the lips and have good staying power. You can also use tinted lip balms. I have a small collection of baby lips, and I'm currently obsessed with Maybelline New York Baby Lips electro, Pink Shock, which has a decent amount of pigment and lasts a long time on my lips. There is no doubt about its moisturizing abilities! If you do not want a tinted lip balm, you can choose a colorless one to suit your needs. Maybelline has a massive collection of baby lips in many other countries.

2. Avoid skipping exfoliation.

Layers of lotion will not soften your skin unless you first remove the dead skin that is impeding its absorption. If you skip exfoliation, your moisturizer will just sit on top of your skin, never penetrating the inner layers where it is most needed. Instead of exposing your sensitive winter skin to chemical-laden scrubs, make your natural scrubs at home with baking soda, honey, milk, and sugar.

3. Incorporate charcoal into your beauty routine.

Because of the accumulation of dirt, oil, and pollution in the winter, your skin is more prone to skin ailments. This is easily remedied by washing your face three times per day with charcoal soap. It penetrates the pores to extract oil and dirt from deep within. Most dermatologists advise you to scrub only once a week or your skin will begin to crease. This limitation does not apply to charcoal soap because its mildly gritty texture removes toxins from your skin without causing it to break down. Furthermore, because it removes the top layer of dead skin, charcoal gives your face a glow. The deep cleansing action of charcoal soap results in rejuvenated skin that does not disturb pH levels.

4. Apply moisturizer immediately after showering.

Limit your time in a hot shower and instead use lukewarm water because the hotter the water, the dryer your skin will be afterward. After showering, pat your skin dry rather than rubbing it, and then apply a moisturizer all over your body while it is still slightly damp. This greatly aids your skin's ability to retain moisture.

5. Do not overtighten masks.

If your facial skin is excessively dry, avoid using harsh peels and masks (especially charcoal and clay), which can harm it. Instead, for long-lasting hydration, use natural hydrating ingredients like honey, avocado, yogurt, olive and jojoba oils, almond oil, and bananas.

6. Schedule overnight treatments.

Because they have thinner skin, certain body parts, such as the hands, feet, elbows, and knees, are more prone to dryness than others. Coat them in glycerin-infused creams overnight, then cover them to keep the moisture in until the next morning. A gentle face massage with lukewarm olive oil before going to bed can work wonders because it is an excellent natural remedy for dry skin.

Reduced water intake and cold winds can cause a dry, flaky scalp. To avoid this mess, deep condition your hair with warm coconut oil once a week and leave it on overnight to combat dandruff.

7. Limit the use of hair dryers and shampoo.

It is preferable to air-dry your hair rather than blow-dry it during this season. However, do not rub them to hasten the drying process because this lifts the cuticles and increases moisture loss. Additionally, avoid over-shampooing and completely drying your hair before venturing out into the harsh cold, as a wet hair shaft can put you at risk of hair breakage.

8. Wear minimal makeup.

To avoid flaking, always set the face with a facial spray or moisturize it with cream before applying foundation. Second, avoid heavy foundations and powders for the time being because they will highlight the creases and acne on your face. It is preferable if you reduce your use of all products. Instead, use light-coverage foundations and cream blushes.

9. Heal from inside

Dehydration and a lack of essential fatty acids are the most common causes of dryness. Add fresh salmon, mackerel, olive oil, avocados, eggs, and dark leafy greens like spinach to your diet. Second, consume at least 64 ounces of water per day. Finally, reduce your caffeine intake and replace it with herbal tea.
