CHARLOTTE VØHTZ, FOUNDER OF GREEN PEOPLE SHARES HER TOP TIPS FOR WINTER SKINCARE:
Don’t use a heavy moisturiser at night; it could prevent your skin from ridding itself of waste. If your skin feels tight or dry, use a facial oil based on jojoba and/or rosehip followed by a light serum, or try a night time treat containing natural fruit acids.
Never share lipgloss or lipstick with a friend – especially if either of you have cold sores
Avoid harsh exfoliators, strong detergents and very hot water
A soft facial cloth made from ultra-fine micro-fibres is better for the skin than a rough-textured washcloth, which can cause irritation to dry skin
Limit alcohol and caffeine, which have a diuretic effect and can aggravate dry skin
Keep rooms moist, especially in winter by placing bowls of water by the radiators, or use a humidifier
Always apply moisturiser to your face and neck with light, tapping upward motions, whilst the skin is still slightly damp. This helps lock in moisture and stimulates blood circulation.
