A healthy skin is always looking soft and it glows even visibly for all to see. Some of the simple skin routine to do are often been overlooked. As we already know, the harmattan strips moisture from the air. Therefore below are some simple easy tips that can help you manage this season comfortably:
Use Mild Wash Products
Harsh soaps containing lots of processed chemicals strip oils from our skin, you should do well to always look out for what your product contains, for example the sodium lauryl sulfate SLS is the main forming ingredients for soap and shampoo. This takes out healthy oils your skin actually need for its protection.
Oil Bath
One of the ways to help your skin is to is to keep it hydrated as much as possible and oil and water is one of the key ways. If you cannot find a soap that contains oil as part part of its ingredients you can drip some olive oil or any oil of your choice into your bath water. Oils helps break down dirt from our skin without much pressure.
Dont Deep Cleanse
After a shower pat your skin lightly, do not pat dry, leave some water visibly on your skin, this would help your skin seal in moisture as you quickly apply your moisturising lotion.
Massage
Apply your oil or lotion and massage all over your body for about 2 minutes, this ensures the oil gets deeply absorbed into your skin and not at surface level. It would also encourage blood flows to the right places for a better complexion and not dull looking skin. However, this also combats dryness on through out the day.
These simple tips should not be overlooked because, they are the base of our skincare morning routine which would guarantee that hydrating glow. However drinking alot of water, staying out of the sun and applying a sunscreen are also not to be ignored.
