Best Winter Skin Care Tips

#1 Hydrate Inside and Out

While Florida winters aren't harsh, indoor heating and lower humidity can still dry out your skin. To combat this, make sure you're drinking plenty of water. Start your day with a glass of water and keep a reusable bottle handy throughout the day to stay hydrated. Additionally, consider using a humidifier in your apartment to add moisture to the air, which can help keep your skin from drying out. After showering or washing your face, apply a rich, nourishing moisturizer that contains hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid or ceramides to lock in moisture and keep your skin soft.

#2 Don’t Skip the Sunscreen

Even though the Florida winter sun may feel mild, UV rays are still strong, and it's important to protect your skin year-round. Make sunscreen a part of your daily routine by applying a broad-spectrum SPF of at least 30 before heading outdoors, whether you're strolling through Vinoy Park or lounging by the Provenza pool. Many moisturizers already contain SPF, which makes it easy to keep your skin protected without adding extra steps to your skincare routine.

#3 Exfoliate with Care

Exfoliation is essential to remove dead skin cells and maintain a smooth complexion, but it's important to be gentle during the winter months. Over-exfoliating can strip your skin of its natural oils, leaving it vulnerable to dryness and irritation. Opt for a mild exfoliator and use it once or twice a week to maintain healthy, glowing skin. After exfoliating, follow up with a hydrating serum or moisturizer to help replenish your skin's moisture barrier and keep it soft and smooth.
