TIPS to smooth FLAKING skin on the face.
Flaking skin in the winter
Customizing your winter skin care routine will help you combat the drying and flaking effects of the season. The following tips should help you address flaking skin on the face this winter.
Use Hyaluronic Acid for added moisture. This excellent hydrating ingredient can attract and hold 1000 times its weight in water, making it a must have for dry skin. Try Glo’s HA-Revive Hyaluronic Hydrator with a powerful antioxidant combination of phyto-retinol and hyaluronic acid.
Also, exfoliate every 2-3 days. This ensures that your skin is always fresh and reaping the benefits of your skin care product ingredients. For those who enjoy a regular scrub try Glo’s Hydra Bright Polishing Cleanser with Salicylic Acid (BHA), amino acids, and gentle Jojoba beads.
Use skin scrubs that are made specifically for the face. It may be easy to reach for the body scrub in the shower, but the granules are not shaped or sized for use on sensitive skin such as the face. Facial scrubs contain micro beads that are smooth and will not cause tears in the skin.
Another option is enzyme exfoliation. Enzyme exfoliation eliminates scrubbing altogether and acts on a chemical level “eating away” at the dead skin.
Another tip is using Lactic Acid for AHA benefits. This hydrating milk acid is excellent for gently dissolving surface cells, boosting hydration, and balancing pH, and brighten dull complexion. Try Glo’s Hydra-Bright AHA Hydrator with benefits of vitamin C and lactic acid.
We hope these tips help you to keep your skin happy and healthy throughout!
Peace, Love, and Great Skin!
