It's difficult to accomplish dewy, hydrated, glowing skin in winter with the cold winter working against us; dry air, wind stripping your skin of moisture and artificial heat from your heater.

Cold feet especially make you feel miserable. It's a great idea to have warm water foot soaks once a week for healthy feet and crack free heels all year round. A regular foot soak makes it easy to keep hard skin under control. Mix a small amount of soap and Epsom salts for an anti-inflammatory effect on the bones of the feet and relaxation for the muscles. Warm feet equals a warm body. Always wear slippers around the house, this is a great way to care for your feet.

Staying active during winter months will help your body temperature, boost circulation, keep your pulse rate up and your glow intact. After exercise your brain releases the feel-good chemicals serotonin and dopamine which will help to reduce anxiety while boosting well-being and the glow in your skin.

Use a humidifier because during winter the air inside can be super dry especially while sleeping or anyone working from home. Adding a humidifier to your bedroom can put moisture back into the air, helping the skin's moisture and you'll wake up with glowing skin every morning. As always, all year round drink water because it will hydrate you from the inside out. If you are finding your skin particularly dry this season, a super moisturiser and oil serum with help nourish it more efficiently.
