When humidity levels drop and it’s cold, moisture will evaporate faster from the skin, leaving it dry, tight and it may also flake. Of course, this also applies to the hair and scalp. Therefore, moisturizing and soothing your skin and hair will be the keys to a more radiant winter skin.  <\/p>\n

Collagen helps skin retain moisture <\/strong><\/h3>\n

Collagen is the body’s most abundant protein and is essential for maintaining moisture and elasticity. If you want to use it to help your skin, you can choose collagen supplements, preferably in combination with substances that help collagen form, such as vitamin C and pycnogenol.  <\/p>\n

Nettle as a hair boost <\/strong><\/h3>\n

The ordinary stinging nettle is actually a superfood. Packed with nutrition and climate-smart, we should use more of it. The substances in nettle can soothe the skin and scalp but it can also make your scalp thicker. DHT is a type of testosterone known to cause hair loss and nettle can block the substance to allow the strands to stay on your head.  <\/p>\n

Lubricate yourself before going out in the cold <\/strong><\/h3>\n

Never, ever wash off your skin’s protective layer of oil in the morning when it’s cold outside, it’s needed to reduce moisture evaporation. Instead, apply a lovely moisturizing oil that leaves the skin with extra protection.  <\/p>\n

Reduce inflammation and get better looking skin <\/strong><\/h3>\n

An important factor in the appearance of skin and hair is the presence of inflammation. Inflammatory skin is characterized by redness, rashes and even eczema, swelling and other symptoms. To reduce inflammation in the skin (and the rest of the body), the fats we consume are very important. Skin depends on good fats to stay moisturized and healthy. Turmeric oil, which contains the anti-inflammatory fatty acid GLA, has been shown in studies to have a positive effect on the skin barrier.  <\/p>\n

Showering and bathing in moderation<\/strong><\/h3>\n

When we shower and bathe, valuable moisture is lost from the skin. Therefore, it is wise to skip unnecessary showers and baths and also reduce the time we spend soaking our skin. At the same time, less water and energy is used – a win-win!  <\/p>\n

Hyaluronic acid the skin’s moisture sponge <\/strong><\/h3>\n

Hyaluronic acid is great for increasing the level of moisture in the skin – that’s what it’s for. With its sugar molecules, it attracts water and gives the skin a radiant and smooth appearance. Studies conducted with participants who consumed hyaluronic acid show that it can increase the moisture content of the skin and reduce fine lines.    <\/p>\n

Review your cleaning products <\/strong><\/h3>\n

Strong cleansers will deprive your skin of the oils it needs to stay moisturized when the air is drier. If you haven’t tried it yet, try cleansing with an oil. The same goes for your hair, where overly strong shampoos can cause your scalp to flake and itch.  <\/p>\n
