The positive effects on your skin are usually immediately visible, appearing smoother and rejuvenated. As the epidermis produces new skin cells rapidly, they will appear fuller for more plump skin.

The cool, blistery air of the winter months, combined with drying indoor heat zaps moisture from our skin leaving it feeling dull, dry, and itchy. This is definitely a good time to exfoliate your skin to slough off dead skin cells and unblock pores. Gentle exfoliation with cleansers can be used regularly and professional exfoliation facials like microdermabrasion can also provide many benefits. When first exfoliating your skin, it can be more susceptible to sun damage. At home exfoliation should be done at night and apply moisturizer immediately. You should always wear sunscreen during the day even in the winter months. A sunscreen with an SPF of 30 should be sufficient in the winter, although using an SPF of 50 is recommended for summer months. After slathering on thick moisturizers throughout the winter months, you can swap out for something a little lighter in the spring when our skin tends to hold more water in the spring and summer months.

Winter weather can be quite harsh on our skin with freezing winds and cold temperatures drawing out moisture leaving skin dry, dehydrated, and sensitive.
