Refresh Dry Skin with These Easy Tips"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Dry skin: it\u2019s increasingly common for people to feel their skin lacks proper hydration.\u00a0 A number of factors can impact the health of our skin such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cool and dry temperatures create dry air which, in turn, zaps moisture from your skin,<\/li>\n<li>Home heating systems that dehumidify the air leading to dry skin,<\/li>\n<li>Over the counter soaps and detergents containing chemicals that strip away moisture, and<\/li>\n<li>Hot baths and showers damaging skin\u2019s layers&#8211;leaving it feeling dry and tight.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Of course, dry skin often exhibits traditional symptoms such as being red, itchy, flaky, or feeling rough to the touch.\u00a0 However, dry skin can actually feel oilier as the skin overproduces oil to alleviate the dryness.<\/p>\n<p>Before you address your skin care routine, take some time to assess your environment.\u00a0 Here are a couple of tips to give your hydration efforts a good foundation:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Avoid the temptation to take a hot shower and choose lukewarm instead.<\/strong> You\u2019ll feel an enormous difference on your skin when you shower with slightly cooler water.\u00a0 The same rules apply for cleansing your face\u2014use water that is not too hot and not too cold.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Use a humidifier.<\/strong> Adding moisture to your air will make your skin, eyes, and lungs feel better.\u00a0 There are a number of types available such as warm mist, cool mist, and steam vaporizers so perform a little research first to decide what type is best for you.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Monitor your sodium and water intake.<\/strong> Eating salt isn\u2019t inherently bad for your skin, but ingesting high amounts of sodium combined with low amounts of water will draw moisture from your body and skin.\u00a0 Be sure to drink extra water with your favorite salty foods or snacks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If your skin is feeling dry or flaky, here\u2019s a simple 4-step skin care routine to help make it feel nourished and refreshed:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Use a gentle cleanser to wash your face each morning and evening. <\/strong>Avoid using the bar of soap in your shower to wash your face.\u00a0 Instead, choose a gentle, oil-based cleanser.\u00a0 This will help remove dirt and makeup without stripping your skin of moisture.\u00a0 Eminence Organic\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/organicelementsspa.com\/product\/eminence-stone-crop-cleansing-oil\/\">Stone Crop Cleansing Oil<\/a> is infused with moisturizing sunflower
