Winter Skincare Tips & Los 12 Días de Navidad Giveaway, with Milagros de Mexico, Mirella Cosmetics.com and Miradabeauty.com
You always see lists for beautiful summer skin so for winter we are left wondering. Some people have no idea that you should change your skin care regime with the change in seasons. The same goes for make-up; but we are talking skin care today! One thing a lot of people don’t know about me is the fact that I to learn about skincare. I want to keep having healthy skin. I’m like an onion people, it will take a while to truly learn me.
Top 5 Tips for Beautiful Winter Skin
HYDRATE
One of the most important things about the cold season is the lack of hydration the skin goes thru. I honestly don’t think it matters where you live. Your skin is thristy! Make sure to drink your 8 glasses of water or more to keep your skin’s elasticity and suppleness. You can also hydrate your skin by using a hydration lotion. Using the Mirada Beauty Collagen Powder can help supplement your skin and nourish using Resveratrol, Vitamin C, Pomegranete, Acai. One thing you don’t want your skin to loose is elasticity!
EXFOLIATE
In the summer we exfoliate our skin so our tan can look beautiful and not scaley. In the winter, show case your natural skin tone by doing a weekly exfoliation to keep your skin healthy. There’s nothing like having dry and itchy skin in the winter. Slough it off already! You can exfoliate with ease using the Mirada Beauty Exfoliant with Mango.
MOISTURIZE
So you are noticing some very dry skin happening during this time of the year. Moisturize people! A common misconception is Hydration and Moisturizing is the same thing. It’s totally not! Moisturizing works with a hydration cream to trap in the moisture and natural oils of your skin. Depending on your skin type you will need one more than the other, but please don’t forget the Moisturizer in your beauty regime. Here’s a great option, the Mirada Beauty Honey Based Mask.
USE SUNSCREEN
A common misconception is skipping the sunscreen in the fall and winter months. Don’t do it. You can still get sun damage in the winter. Prevent those sunspots showing up under your glowing tan in the summer months, but using sunscreen on a daily basis. And if you are over exposed, please re-apply!
SKIP HOT SHOWERS
What’s the first thing you wanna do when it’s cold out? You want to go de-frost in the shower. A hot shower. You might think you are doing yourself a favor, but this is the worst thing you can do. A hot shower will actually dry your skin out. As hard as it is, skip the hot shower. I’m right there with you on this one.

Question:
How do you take care of your skin in the winter?
Moisturizing is so important. My skin gets so dry in the winter.
Thank you for sharing these great tips! It doesn’t get cold where I live, but there’s no humidity during the winter so I dry out like a lizard!
These are great winter skincare tips. I really need to drink more water all year long. I moisturize but I think I need to change my brand.
My dd and I both have horrible dry skin and eczema – and we live in michigan. It’s crucial that we keep our skin hydrated year round to avoid breakouts.
I’m positive I don’t moisturize enough even though I really try to keep up with it. I think it needs more than it looks like it needs.
skipping hot showers is HARD for me. i like the water super hot. but then my skin gets dry. its a vicious cycle
These are such great tips! I need to exfoliate more.
These are some excellent tips! Thanks for sharing!
I need to moisturize more actually. I work for UPS and my skin gets so dry in the winter being out side all day.
I am not so awesome about most of those steps. I’m trying to get better at moisturizing, but by the time my toddler falls asleep at 1 a.m. I can barely keep my eyes open, let alone do extra skin care. I know that I need to, though!
These are great tips to keep in mind! Thanks for this!
I’ve really been trying to keep my skin extra moisturized. It’s been a little colder here than normal, so I have to keep on it…otherwise, I’m so itchy!
I am constantly moisturizing in the winter… other wise my skin cracks and is sooo sore! Sometimes I forget about not taking a hot shower though… sigh… they feel so good!
It is so hard to skip those hot showers when it’s freezing outside! I definitely need to up my intake of water, I can always tell a difference in my skin’s hydration when I pay attention to how much I’m drinking. Great tips!
These are some very good tips. Everyone’s skin could use some extra love during this cold dry winter. We need to remember to drink plenty of water. Great tips.
These are great tips! I love a hot shower, but it is very bad for the skin. I’m turning 30 soon, so I’m becoming more interested in skin care. I’ll have to try out some of the products you listed above!
Don’t think I am skipping the hot shower in my super chilly house, but I will use extra moisturizer! I can’t wait for my own Christmas vacation. I think there is a spa visit in my near future!
As we get older we must be careful to take better care of our skin when we clean, moisturize and protect.
I definitely use more moisturizer in the winter and try to drink tons of water. But I never skip a hot shower.
I am a lotioning FOOL! lol. I don’t take really hot showers, but the dry air dries out my skin something awful. I keep lotion in my purse, car and even at my desk so when I start to notice it getting dry, I can lotion up!
