Worship water
but shun the sun

DO YOU regard dry
skin as Public Enemy
#1, especially during the
winter when looking
and feeling beautiful is
essential?

The telltale signs of
winter-weary skin —
dryness, chapping, flak-
ing, roughness, itching,
raw or red spots — are
the result of exposure to
plummeting
temperatures, biting
winds and a drop in the
relative humidity that
accompanies cold
weather.

Outdoor sports and
activities in the drier,
colder air can also cause
severe chapping. Winter
sun may be even more
damaging to the skin
than exposure during
the summer months.

Skiing can be par-
ticularly harmful, since
the thinner atmosphere
at higher elevations and
the reflective surface of
the snow increase the
damaging effects of the
sun’s ultraviolet rays.

And just when you
thought it was safe to
come in from the cold,
remember that the dry
heat in most indoor en-
vironments can further
deplete the skin of much
needed moisture.

The secret of a fresh,

r

youthful complexion
during any season is
moisture. In fact, the
key to everything in
nature that is beautiful
is water.

Water covers more
than three quarters of
the earth's surface and
comprises 60 per cent of
the human body.
Deprive either of
enough moisture and
the result is a parched
landscape.

The skin’s natural oil,
or sebum, is the key to
retaining moisture and
keeping skin scft and
supple. Sebum acts as a
natural barrier between
the skin and the ele-
ments.

However, fom
production slows: .. old
weather and is icss ef-
fective as a moisture
barrier. The problem is
compounded as skin
ages, since the
sebaceous glands
become less active and
produce less sebum.

A_ high-performance
skincare product can
help restore skin to a
healthy-looking radiant
state while reducing
those fine lines that ap-
pear during the winter
months.

dition during the winter
months:

© Apply moisturizer
twice a day on damp-
ened skin.

e invest in a room
humidifier for your
bedroom to moisturize
the air while you sleep.
Or place pans of water
atop radiators.

* Resist the tempta-
tion to linger in a hot
bath or shower — long
soaks strip the skin of
protective moisture.
Limit bathing to no
more than once a day.

e Avoid harsh soaps
that can strip the skin of
natural oils.

¢ Always keep your
face covered with a
scarf or muffler out-
doors when the
temperature outside
drops below 32°F. If
you are the sporting
type, use a sunscreen
with an SPF of at least
15 along with your
moisturizer. Indoors,
maintain temperature in
the low 70°sF.

* Be sure your diet
includes lots of fruits,
vegetables, milk and
milk products, all of
which promote healthy
skin. And don’t forget
to drink plenty of water
throughout the day.

One reason to actually
