While a change of seasons is always a great relief, it often brings with it its own set of problems—allergies, a seasonal flu and of course skin that isn’t hydrated and dries way too often. We could have assumed that with so much practice we would have mastered the art of dealing with dry skin no matter what the season, but it seems to be a challenge we still face! After much trial and error, here are our 4 go-to tips to combatting dry skin in all seasons…
 

Go for a lightweight moisturiser in the summers

Go for a lightweight moisturiser in the summers

Summer is that time of the year when you need a light, non-greasy skin moisturiser that will keep your skin supple and hydrated without making it too sticky. This is when you need the Ponds Silk Cream Moisturiser. With a 24-hour moisture lock formula that is a perfect fit for dry skin, this versatile cream prevents dryness and helps retain moisture without making your skin look oily during summer.

 

Your ideal winter shield

Your ideal winter shield

Winter is notorious for robbing your skin of its natural moisture and the Pond’s Cold Cream is your best bet at claiming it back. It’s a great companion for the winter, when the skin needs maximum care, moisturising and nourishment. And if you are someone who has exceptionally dry skin, this product will prove to be nothing short of a boon for you.

 

Don’t forget to moisturise your body

Don’t forget to moisturise your body

When it comes to picking a moisturiser for skin, cocoa based products might be your best bet. Cocoa derived butter, lotion and jelly are all known to keep your skin well hydrated and healthy. We highly recommend the Vaseline’s Total Moisture Cocoa Glow Body Lotion because it is non-greasy, easy to apply and smells delish! The best part is that it does leave your skin with a glow that last all day long.

 

Consume foods rich in fatty acids

Consume foods rich in fatty acids

You must know that your skin cells are wrapped up in a protective bubble of fats that help keep the skin soft and hydrated. If there is a lack of fatty acids in your diet, your body cannot maintain this protective wrap. Hence, make sure you include a lot of tofu, soya beans and walnuts in your diet that will help you internally battle dry skin.

Make it a habit to slather your skin with the right moisturiser post your shower and eat the right foods and beating dry skin shouldn’t be a task anymore.
