 Before you know it, winter will be upon us, and for many people, harsh winters bring…dry skin. Dry skin can be a typical occurrence, especially during the winter months. Despite its normalcy, dry skin can be both uncomfortable and unsightly. When skin loses hydration, normally plump skin cells will shrivel and create fine lines and wrinkles which make your skin look old and sagging.
If you are suffering from dry skin issues you could notice some of these:
• Tight feeling skin
• Skin that appears shrunken
• Rough looking skin
• Flaking, peeling, or scaling skin
• Fine lines or cracks
• Redness
• Deep cuts
• Itching
Most dry skin issues are caused by the environment that our skin is exposed to. The winter months are the hardest months for your skin to maintain moisture levels because the humidity in the air is the lowest. If you suffer from existing skin conditions, they are often exasperated during the winter months as well. Central heating, space heaters, fireplaces, and wood-burning stoves zap the air of humidity and will dry your skin out even more.
Hot baths and showers will also quickly dry your skin out as will using harsh soaps and deodorants. Sun exposure is a well-documented problem as the damaging ultraviolet rays cause harm to each layer of the skins surface.
Skin care experts agree that dry skin can be avoided by protecting your skin every day. Stop by Skin Gift to see the many products we have in stock to help avoid itchy painful dry skin issues this winter season.

 Some ladies might not realize that applying make-up without foundation will actually accentuate problem areas on their face instead of concealing them. Wearing foundation on your face is the key to making your skin look smooth and fresh before you apply your make-up. Foundation helps to conceal blemishes, redness, and discoloration. Using foundation will smooth out your skin tone and highlight your natural attributes. When applied correctly, it will give your skin a healthy glow.
Choosing the right color foundation to match your skin tone can be a tricky decision. Skin care experts say that choosing a foundation color that is too light will make you look pale and washed out. When you choose a foundation color that is too dark, you will have a line of make-up at your jawbone that makes you look like you are wearing a mask. Foundation color must always blend in with your natural skin tone. Just as the seasons change, so does the color of your skin. During the summer you might need a darker toned foundation color and during the winter you might need a lighter toned foundation color.
There are different types of foundations available, so you must decide which type is best for your particular skin care needs.
Please check back on Thursday for Part 2.
