Winter can take a toll on more than your utility bill. It can cause some undesirable and noticeable changes in your skin as well. But you CAN get that dewy and fresh look back. Here are some important products and diet changes that will get you looking refreshed in no time.

Dry Vs Dehydrated Skin-What do I have?
Many people cannot tell if their skin is just dry topically, or if the changes are due to dehydration. Winter is tough on skin and more people suffer dehydration in winter months as their water intake is usually reduced. Here are a few ways you can tell what your skin and body need.

• Dehydrated Skin is caused by a lack of water in the skin. All skin types can experience this. Just because your skin is oily doesn’t mean you are exempt. Most people perform a simple “pinch test.” Pinch a small amount of skin on the back of your hand or cheek. Hold for several seconds then release. If it snaps right back then you likely are not dehydrated but if it takes a few moments, you need to increase your water intake. Dehydration can cause fine lines and wrinkles to be more noticeable and no one wants that!

• Dry Skin is an actual skin “type”. Your skin takes on a dry, flaky appearance due to the lack of oils in your skin.
