The holidays are here and time is a precious commodity. With all the family gatherings, work parties, neighborhood visits, shopping, wrapping, travel and everything else on your calendar, when do have time to take care of yourself? Thankfully, winter means long sleeves, pants and covering up most of your body so no one can see if you’ve shaved!
Almost no one prefers the alternative to aging – we all want to enjoy our families and loved ones for as long as possible. But growing old leaves its mark on us all, and those marks are what we want to avoid. How can you begin early to keep your skin in top condition all through the years? One key ingredient is moisture. Aging causes our skin to dry out and look like a sheet of old parchment. Locking in moisture is a great practice to keep skin healthy and looking younger.
Although here in Beverly Hills, California, it may still seem like summer, most other places across the country are beginning to experience the chill of late fall and the beginnings of winter. Out comes the pumpkin spice lattes, fuzzy sweaters, flannel and holiday decorations. Away goes the bikinis, flip flops and strappy sandals, beach umbrellas and sunscreen.
It's not just the leaves that change with the welcoming of Fall – your skin does, too. The autumn weather and cooler, drier air affects your skin, triggering changes as your body naturally tries to hold on to moisture. The same happens indoors as the heat gets turned on and cranked up. Those with naturally oily skin may think Summer is a difficult time with its heat and sweat, but Fall can be just as problematic. If you routinely wear a mask, your oily skin problems are compounded.
Some skin conditions or anti-aging efforts call for more invasive treatments. Fine lines and wrinkles, acne or other types of scars, rosacea and more can demand professional aesthetic therapies that actually damage, or in some cases, remove layers of skin. While these treatments can trigger your body’s own natural healing response and result in smoother, clearer and healthier-looking skin, giving your skin a boost with advanced skincare products can speed your recovery time and result in longer-lasting benefits.
