How to take care of dry skin in winter

Cold rain and wet snow do not completely moisturize the skin, they severely injure it.But frosts make any moisturizers generally dangerous!Yes, until frostbite cheeks it will not come, but the moisture that is part of the cream, literally freezes and spoils the skin of the face, "scratching" it.Of course, this is all exaggerated, but it is important to understand the essence of the potential danger, rather than manipulate complex and incomprehensible terms.

Please note: is an exception to this rule only hyaluronic acid and chitosan, since they not only moisturize, but also cover the skin with a protective film, which ensures the preservation of moisture in the deep layers of the dermis.But even these funds can be applied to the skin of the face in the winter time not earlier than 60 minutes before going to the street .

Humidifying agents, in principle, can be used in winter, but experts recommend applying them directly before night sleep and immediately after the shower, directly on the damp skin.And in the daytime you can spray the skin with thermal water from the can, and, directly on top of the makeup.
