Purifying Clay Facial Mask – Avocado and Oatmeal

Regularly exfoliating during winter months can be great for the skin. It sloughs off all those dry, dead skin cells to banish dull skin and reveal a glowing complexion. Don’t let the name scare you. It’s a formula that uses alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), or enzymes to gently dissolve the top layer of dead skin and wash it away. This is a much kinder exfoliation method for dry skin and won’t lead to more flakes. And, you don’t have to overdo it; exfoliating 2-3 times per week is plenty.

Eye cream is very important during winter weather for a couple of reasons:

  • Dry and dehydrated skin makes fine lines more apparent and highlights wrinkles.
  • The delicate skin around the eyes can get easily chapped when those cold, dry winds cause our eyes to constantly water (not to mention, it doesn’t do our eye makeup any favours!).

Look for formulas that include collagen and elastin to rebuild the skin’s structure and fill out fine lines, peptides to support healthy tissue, and antioxidants to encourage cell regeneration.
