How
can your skin beat the Winter Blues?
Do-it-yourself Guinot Facial for Dehydrated Winter
Skin
Harsh winter weather takes a toll on skin leaving
it dry, flaky, sensitive and irritated. When you
can’t get to the spa, or in between facials, do-it-yourself
homecare is a great way to keep skin in top condition
when the mercury falls.
Winter Facial Prescription
To maintain flake-free skin during the winter season,
opt for
Hydra Tendre gentle cleansing cream.
The Coconut Extracts not only cleanse but also neutralize
the effects of hard water on the skin. Remember
not to wash your face with hot water-it dehydrates
the surface layers of the skin.
Exfoliate not only to remove dead cells but also
to maintain your skin’s hydration.
Layers of dead cells asphyxiate the skin and dehydrate
it. Use
Gommage Biologique twice a week.
The gentle AHA’S-including, sugar cane, lemon and
orange- lightly exfoliate the skin and hydrate it,
while green tea protects and nourishes, making this
exfoliant perfect for all skins including the most
sensitive.
Follow up with Masque Hydra Beaute
to replenish moisture and soothe wind and cold irritated
skin. Try Masque Yeux to hydrate
and refresh the eye area. Both masks may be left
on the skin for 15 minutes then tissued or rinsed
off.
Finish with an application of Serum Hydra
Beaute for very dry/dehydrated skin followed
by Crème Hydra Beaute to
seal and retain moisture in the skin. The Shea Butter
and Vitamin E in the Hydra Beaute Source will help
to nourish the skin and fight free-radicals, while
the Hydro-captors will trap the moisture in the
skin.
What could be better for the eye area during
the cold weather than Hydrazone Eye?
Liposomes that deliver moisture into the delicate
eye area and horse chestnut to reduce puffiness
make it perfect all-in-one eye cream for this time
of year.
