Co-founder of Aestheticslab.co.uk, Tanya Zahoor gives Closer her top tips on how to maintain the healthiest skin as we head into the winter month
-
Continue using SPF during autumn and winter months, it prevents ageing and keeps skin protected against UVA rays which are present even on a gloomy day. [We like Dermaquest SPF 30.]
-
To keep your tan for longer use a rich body moisturiser (Medik8 Body Moisturiser)
-
To keep your gut health at its best have a daily intake of a probiotic supplement. This will work wonders for your skin keeping it clear and blemish free.
-
Take vitamin C and Zinc supplements to keep your immune system working at its best and keep colds and viruses at bay. Vitamin C is also a great anti-oxidant and will protect your skin against free radicals and ageing.
-
Use an enzyme based exfoliator on your face (Dermaquest Mini Pumpkin Mask) rather than a grain based one - it dissolves dead skin yet is kind on skin, leaving it soft and radiant.
-
The perfect way to add extra moisture to your skin and infuse it with all the necessary vitamins is to have a mesotherapy treatment on your face. Alternatively, a hydrating facial is always good during winter months.
-
Post summer holidays and into winter months use a rich moisturiser (Biologique Recherché or Dermaquest Essential mosturiser) to rehydrate your skin after holiday sun and keep it hydrated throughout winter months when skin tends to become quite dry.
-
Ensure that you use a mosuturising serum ( B5 Medik 8 or Dermaquest) for extra hydration.
-
Use face masks suitable for your skin type and skin condition at least twice a week for a mini facial effect in the comfort of your home.
