Winter Beauty Woes

Cold, crisp mornings slipping into woolly socks and oversized jumpers, big pots of soup bubbling away on the stove and slow evenings huddled by the fire sipping hot cacao; there’s no denying the idea of winter is very romantic.

While the chilly change in season brings so much beauty, it does come with its challenges as cold temperatures, low humidity and gusty winds can be harsh on the body.

The rapidly changing temperatures from heated indoors to cold outdoor environments have been shown to affect the skin’s capillaries, and prolonged exposure to wet weather can strip the skin’s barrier function, leading to dry, sensitive, chapped skin and lips, brittle hair and cracked nails.

If you suffer from skin conditions such as eczema, rosacea or dermatitis you may also experience a worsening of symptoms in the winter months due to your skin drying out from changing temperatures.

At times it may feel that you just have to grit your teeth, pull your scarf up and make it through to spring. However, fortunately there are a number of natural ways to help combat these symptoms, both internally through food and supportive nutrients and topically with healing botanicals and gentle lifestyle changes, so you can get back to enjoying all the charm winter has to offer.
