During the winter months, our skin tends to get really dry and therefore makes your complexion look dull and pale. Taking good care of your skin, especially in the winter, is of the utmost importance so here is a sure way to get your skin back to its natural glow.

STEP 1

Start off by soaking a washcloth in very warm water and proceed to placing it over your face. Leave it on for a minute and repeat the process a few times since the steam will help soften and relax your skin.

STEP 2

Use a mild facial scrub to get rid of dead skin cells and avoid harsh, grainy scrubbers and exfoliants since they can lead to irritation. Using the mild scrubber, rub onto your face using circular motions (think of it as a facial massage) and rinse off.

STEP 3

Choose your favorite mask (either store bought or DIY mask). Make sure the mask is plentiful in antioxidants such as vitamin E. Leave it on for 3-5 minutes and rinse it off with lukewarm water.

STEP 4

Rub a good winter moisturizer into your face and neck, massaging slowly to get your circulation going. For a refreshing spa feeling, store the moisturizer in the fridge.

STEP 5

Now all that’s left is to relax so pick up a relaxing essential oil such as lavender or vanilla and dab it onto your pulse points which are your wrists and ears.
