TOP 5 TIPS FOR A HEALTHY WINTER GLOW

Using a cleanser is one of the best defenses against dry, cracked skin. Yes, but without being harsh!

Forget about detergents such as facial wipes that remove the skin's natural oils and thereby dry it out. Opt for a gentle, moisturizing facial cleanser without soap, alcohol or perfume.

The + prefer a small cleaning brush (six times more effective than manual cleaning) which allows gentle contact and deep action.

Recommendation: Be sure to use lukewarm water rather than hot water so as not to dry out your skin even more and pat it gently to limit the risk of irritation and dehydration.

The + look for a cream or serum that is highly concentrated in hyaluronic acid or other active ingredients that contain a very high water content; also consider vitamin E, which is excellent for combating pollution (such as the skincare products in the UNIVERSKIN range from the Clinique de la Croix d'Or).

Stay active to boost your natural glow! In summer, we spend most of our time outdoors, which makes us feel and look better. In cold weather, wrapped up under our duvet watching the snow fall, we are immediately less motivated to put a toe outside.

Going out to get some fresh air will help you stimulate circulation, keep your pulse up and your glow intact. We commit to walking for at least twenty minutes a day to get a natural healthy glow. The + is to focus on sports activities to keep your tone (like Miha Bodytec sessions with a personal coach on hand to never give up) and we try mesotherapy, this prodigious treatment that gives your complexion a radiant glow, tone and anti-aging properties at the Aslan Medical Center.
