Q: Is there anything I can do to
prevent my skin from drying out this winter?
A: The answer
is to start your cold-weather skincare routine before the season sets in. You
want to keep your skin's Moisture barrier intact so that it retains every bit of
hydration while protecting against frigid wind and arid indoor heat.
Begin by turning down the
temperature of your baths and showers, and don't soak or stay under the spray
for more than five minutes; hot water strips away natural oils.
Seal in moisture with a rich body
lotion such Herbal Body Lotion providing head to toe hydration in a non-greasy
formula with Vitamin E, chamomile, jojoba oil and sage.
The skin's barrier function helps
skin retain moisture and protect itself from external elements. However,
biological aging, stress, UV rays and environmental pollution weaken the skin's
barrier function and lessen its ability to retain moisture. This is evidenced by
fine lines, dehydration, rough textured skin and heightened sensitivity.
Noevir's 99 Skin Care Line has a fusion of 16 Eastern and Western herbal
extracts that balance the skin's moisture level, promote skin metabolism and
strengthen the barrier function of the skin. When developing the 99 Skincare
Line, Noevir's research and development team discovered two key botanicals from
Northern China and Tibet. These indigenous plants survive in harsh climates in
high altitudes with low oxygen levels and under extreme temperatures. Running
Club Moss and Himalayan Primrose grow wild in pristine lands unspoiled by
environmental pollution and free from acid rain. These patented botanical
ingredients revive the skin's elasticity and suppleness by strengthening the
barrier function.
Good news ...the 99 Line protects
the skin from free radicals. Parsley extract promotes skin's ability to defend
itself against free radicals, caused by harmful UV rays, air pollution and
day-to-day stress--to minimize premature aging.
This is the perfect skincare line
for people with normal skin who would like to maintain a healthy,
youthful-looking appearance. The gentle ingredients also makes this line ideal
for people with sensitive skin
Finally, start using a humidifier as
soon as you crank up the thermostat.
