Healthy Skin Tips for Cooler Weather

• Use a thicker moisturizer when the air is less humid in the winter months
• Drink at least 10 glasses of water per day. It increases the hydration of our tissues, helping the skin stay smooth and supple.
• Improve your skin's health from the inside out by eating more fruits and veggies.
• Take a daily multivitamin
• Avoid tobacco and alcohol. Both rob vitamins from the body. Smoking also releases free radicals into the system, while alcohol's dehydrating effects further damage the skin.
• Wear a sunscreen with an SPF of at least 20. Many makeup products now incorporate sucscreen, so you can save time and protect your skin all at once.
• Reduce stress. In addition to detrimental effects on the immune system, stress shows in the skin, making it appear dull and lifeless.
• Get a professional facial once a month
