Make Up Games and Dry Skin


It’s winter and it’s likely you’ll be looking at a bit of dry skin over the next few months. Tackling dry skin in regards to make up games is simple enough if you’re willing to be diligent.

Humidity – the warm humid air of summer is great for your skin. It makes it nice and dewy. Unfortunately, there isn’t much of that weather to go around in the winter, so you’ll have to create your own. Pull out the humidifier and plug it in beside your bed every night. All that lovely warm moisture will not only help you breathe as the hot dry air circulate around the rest of the house, you’ll also wake with that lovely lush skin.

Lotion – Moisturizers are your next line of defense. You’ll need to put on full body moisture after every shower you have in these cold months to help protect your skin from dry heat. But taking care of your face is the most important thing of all. Use a heavy cream moisturizer at night to be sure that your face is staying fully moisturized. During the day use a lighter moisturizer under make up. A heavy cream under make up can make you more prone to breakouts, so use the various products sparingly.
