Five habits for healthier skin this winter

Winter is hard on skin. These five habits make it easier.

1. Swap hot showers for warm ones. Very hot water strips the oils your skin needs to stay comfortable.

2. Moisturise straight after shaving. Freshly shaved skin loses water fast, so seal it in within a couple of minutes.

3. Keep using sunscreen. Winter light still ages skin, especially on bright, cold days.

4. Exfoliate once a week, not every day. Gentle and regular beats harsh and frequent.

5. Drink more water than you think you need. Heated rooms dry you out from the inside.

Small habits, done every day, beat any miracle product.
