The temperatures have finally started to drop in Scottsdale, so it may be time to transform your skin care routine into one that accounts for the cooler weather. Adapting your skin care regimen to the new season doesn’t have to be difficult—find out just how easy it is with a few tips from North Scottsdale Laser & Skin Care!
Your New Winter Skin Care Routine
Exfoliate—No matter the season, exfoliation is a must! Exfoliation will maximize the effects of your lotions and creams by removing the layers of dead skin and revealing a glowing layer of skin below the surface. We recommend one of our microdermabrasion facials or one of our dermaplaning facials for the ultimate in glowing skin!
Moisturize—One of the best skin care tips is to use a powerful moisturizer for winter. The SkinMedica Ultra Sheer Moisturizer is great for hydrating your face, and it will improve the overall appearance of your skin. Even though it is winter, Scottsdale still has a lot of sun, no matter the season, so the TNS Ultimate Daily Moisturizer with SPF 20 is a great option for anyone who wants to use a moisturizer with the added benefit of sun protection.
Lotion—Even though we tend to cover up to keep warm in the cooler temperatures, it is still important to put lotion on your arms and legs. To maximize the benefit of body lotion, make sure to apply lotion shortly after you shower to prevent dry skin.
Lip balm—Because the air is dryer in the winter, your lips can often become chapped or cracked during throughout November, December, and January. If you’re going out, make sure to throw some lip balm into your purse!
