In winters, dry weather causes much damage to your skin than anything else. To replenish your skin even in winters, I use a sugar scrub along with wash cloth. Sugar scrub is very effective for dry skin. Its special skin care ingredients heal your hands, skin and feet. You can also make sugar scrub at home but if you choose to purchase it from a recognized store then I would recommend you Lavender Shea Sugar Body Scrub. This sugar scrub smells good and has no side effects and is also good to eat.

Lavender Shea Sugar Body Scrub is made from rich combination of cane sugar, brown sugar along with Shea and cocoa butter. This scrub is multi-purpose and eats away the dryness from your skin. It gives moisturizing to your skin and you don’t need to use any moisturizing lotion after that.

Tips for Glowing Skin

Women of all ages want to have a clearer, brighter and glowing skin. Here I list down some common skin care mistakes that darken our skin complexion:

Improper Diet:

One of the major causes of skin damage is bad or improper diet. When we intake food that does not have any nutritional value, our skin reacts and push out all the toxic materials. Add vegetables in your everyday meal and if your skin looks dull then don’t take bread or pasta, noodles.

Sunscreen:

Using sunscreen in all weathers whether winter or summers is very important. Exposure in sun causes wrinkles and age spots. Choose a sunscreen that contains ingredients to help control oil in your skin.

Cleansing:

Before sleeping, it is necessary to wash away dirt and other bacteria from your face. After washing your face, use any good skin repair cream.

Excessive Exfoliation:

Exfoliation helps your skin to glow and remain healthy. However excessive use of scrubbing and exfoliation is also harmful as it takes away the necessary moisture from the skin and make your skin paper thin. Don’t exfoliate more than twice a week.

How to hydrate your Skin in winters

Weather effects your skin whether its summer or winters. In summers your skin gets oily n sweat a lot while in winters, indoor heat and dry weather suck out the moisture from your skin. Whether you are outside or inside the home, winters are unavoidable. The only cure to overcome the dryness and dullness of skin is to hydrate it. 

Hydrating your skin is very important as the heat inside the home cause water to evaporate from your skin. All those layers keep skin away from breathing. You can fight off skin dullness by using a good moisturizer or natural skin care coffee scrub for your skin. Once a week, you can also exfoliate by using a good body scrub. It will help remove dead cells from your body that make your skin dull.

When your skin is dehydrated, skin show different symbols like redness, uneven tone or texture of the skin, lines and wrinkles. To keep your skin hydrated and fresh, use a good body lotion or scrub regularly.

Early Morning Beauty Short Cuts

Here I will tell you some easy to apply early morning beauty short cuts:

Go Dry instead of Wet:

Instead of applying liquid foundation before you go out for work, you can use loose powder to set your makeup. It gives a stable and nice look and is much easier to swipe on. You can easily do touch –up later on if you feel the powder is vanishing. Loose powder looks way more natural than liquid foundation. It is good to use as early morning beauty product.

Quick Eye Make Up:

Don’t do the thick layers of eye shadows with liquid liner. Just curl your eye lashes with a coat of mascara with outer corner of your eye lid. It is good to use as early morning beauty product.

Hair Do’s:

Instead of wrapping your hairs in a ponytail just wash it and leave it. If you want a wavy look, you can flip your head upside down and use a spray to give body to your hairs.

You are all set to go out J
