How To Hydrate Skin In Winter… Inside-Out

By increasing your daily gulps of coconut water, you can reduce the chances of getting dried-out skin and dehydration in fall and winter.  Coconut water is not just for hot summer days.
 
Drinking even more coconut water in winter is a skin care secret for great looking skin all year around.

 Dehydrating Winter Conditions


  • Increased sweating while wearing extra clothing like sweaters and coats,

  • Irritating low humidity in fall and winter that's a major cause of winter skin itching,

  • Indoor forced air heating that literally bakes skin.

  • Icy winds that swipe moisture from  hands and face.

A massage with coconut oil goes a long way towards keeping my skin supple and moisturized in winter.
 
But I swig more coconut water, however, to insure that my  skin and the rest of my body never suffer from dehydration, even when it’s cold outside.

Use Coconut Oil For Sweater Weather Skincare

Use Coconut Oil Skincare To Fight Dry Indoor Air


I’ve powered-on the furnace because it’s October, there’s a north wind a blowin’ off Lake Michigan in Chicago, frost advisories in nearby counties and the living room is just too darn chilly. All this also means that I got to now start using a bit more coconut oil après showering to keep winter dry skin at bay.
 Then I'm ready for 'sweater weather.'

There’s  simply no better product to stop itchy, flaky dry skin from occurring than coconut oil.


I simply massage in a teaspoon or two all over my body, with or without my favorite skin cream.  I also add  exactly 1 drop to my daytime face cream.
 

Best Oil  for Dry Skin

 
Forced  dry air from the furnace, icy winds, scratchy woolens and drafty rooms all cause the problem of severely dry and irritated skin in fall and winter.
