Winter is not quite here yet, but since weather is cooling down it is just a right time to start with your winter skin care routine. When taking care of your skin during colder months make sure to
Moisturize
Winter can be extremely harsh on your skin and leave it a lot drier than usual. That is why we recommend to takes some extra time during winter when applying moisturizer. JOIK coconut & shea butter body lotion is a perfect for leaving even the driest skin nourished and moisturized.
Avoid overheating
Overheating lowers humidity in the air what has a drying effect on skin. Try to avoid overheating or make sure to use humidifier to not dry out your skin.
Exfoliate less
Exfoliating helps to get rid of dead skin cells, leaving skin fresher and smoother. Exfoliating is just as important during the winter, but make sure to exfoliate less. We recommend exfoliating with gentle exfoliating facial scrub once a week.
Avoid hot, long showers
As the weather begins to get colder and colder, you may find that you are tempted to turn up the heat whenever you take a shower. Extremely hot showers can be damaging for your skin. Hot water sucks out the moisture and can leave you with painful red marks. Instead try to have a medium, warm shower and moisturize your body right after shower.
Take care of your feet
It might seem easier to hide your cold feet in socks, but they still need attention. Make sure to moisturize your feet just as you do with the rest of your body. Try JOIK super moisturizing hand & foot salve.
