Austin Collies

Winter is cruel in so many ways. For many it means feet of heavy white snow to shovel or thick icy patches to miss on the road. For others it comes with endless problems related to the skin. If you are one of those that falls victim to the latter, then there is hope that with the right skin care regime, you can know a much more comfortable winter in 2012.

Invest in New Boots Many people have the most difficulty with the skin on their feet. This is an area that suffers in the winter, and this is especially true for those who live in wet climates. If you are marching around snow or puddle covered grounds with only a flimsy dress shoe, a pair of sneakers, or worn out boots, then you are doing your feet no favors. If you hope to keep your skin from cracking and peeling on your tiny toes this winter, then you might want to invest in a boot that provides warmth and – even more importantly – a dry environment. This is also a great time of year to start pampering your feet. Visit a spa for a good foot massage and pedicure, but also exfoliate and moisturize at home. You depend on your feet to get you where you need to go, so treat them well this year.

Making Tough Decisions We all love to make frequent trips to the medical spa Austin has many cosmetic procedures to offer, but choose wisely in the wintertime. Many harsh peels, masks, and even some toners can dry out your already dry skin. Instead of going for microdermabrasion to erase signs of aging, you might want to consider juvederm filler or a deep hydrating mask to improve the condition of your skin.

Shave With Care Many women take advantage of the added layers of clothing this time of year and skip the morning shave. While letting your leg hair grow is perfectly find when your limbs are covered by the warm and wooly anyway, shaving infrequently can make your skin more prone to razor burn. In addition, the bulkier clothing can irritate skin for some people, causing ingrown hair. It is important to keep clothes clean, so infections don’t occur in the pores. It can also help to use a gentle exfoliation regularly. This practice can also make the skin better ready for that infrequent shaving.

Think Hydration If you want to avoid Botox Austin for a few more years, or at least the signs of aging that it treats, then don’t let your skin get dried out. Not only should you avoid the harsh peels and drying masks, but you should also skip the hot shower. Don’t take that wrong. No one wants you to give up on personal hygiene, but super hot and steamy showers can steal the moisture from your skin. Keep it lukewarm and if you feel the itching of dryness coming on, add a little oatmeal to your next bath.
