When the cold months come we have to prepare our closet with the necessary clothes for the season, to avoid dying of cold when the temperature drops a lot. Of course, no matter how much you wrap yourself, the skin always suffers the ravages of the inclement cold. That is why our beauty routine must also be changed, especially the moisturizer you use for the face, just like your body cream. During the fall and winter the skin tends to feel drier and more dull. So it is necessary to use products that deeply moisturize it, deposit vitamins and leave it looking like the best times of summer.

We spoke with Dr. Jaimie Glick to share some easy and effective tips for keeping your skin hydrated, healthy, and radiant during the fall and winter months.

1- You don't have to bathe every day, especially if you suffer from eczema. Frequent water baths dry out the skin. In fact, these only mistreat your skin in the long term. If you need to bathe daily, do it quickly and with not very hot water.

2- A moisturizer with caramides is extra hydrating and can improve the appearance and texture of the skin that dries out during the winter. Using coconut oil is also great for maintaining healthy, radiant skin. But this should not be used on skin that is prone to acne.

3- Change your moisturizer. The lightest and lotions are ideal for wet summer days. But during winter the skin requires intense hydration and it is better to use a thicker or more consistent cream to improve the protective layer of the skin and avoid dryness and peeling.

4- Limit exfoliation with sponges or with chemicals such as hydroxides or retinol, [especially on the face].

5- Use a humidifier. This maintains moisture in the air and prevents water loss from your skin.
