Winter is coming, and cold air blowing on your face will make your skin turn red. What should I do?

In winter, the wind is too strong and the weather is cold. Cold air blowing on the face will cause the skin to turn red, because the skin is too dry and chapped, and the capillaries are dilated and red.

Chapped skin mostly occurs in the most exposed parts of the human body, such as lips, ears, fingers, the back of the hand and other parts. This symptom will appear not only in cold winter, but also in hot weather.

Specific measures:

1. It is recommended to eat more foods rich in vitamin A in diet, because when the human body lacks vitamin A, the skin will become dry, so foods such as pig liver, cod liver oil, eggs, soybeans and peanuts are the best choices.

2. Bathing in winter should generally not exceed 15 minutes. If you must take a hot bath, use a bath or mild soap whenever possible. After bathing, emollients should be applied to all parts of the body when the skin is not completely dry. Doing so helps the moisturizing ingredients penetrate into the upper layer of the skin.

Every time you wash your face, you must apply moisturizing cream.

4. Pay attention to keep your face warm when you go out to avoid being exposed to the cold wind for a long time.

Causes of dry skin

1, aging is one of the reasons for dry skin. With the decrease of estrogen level in the body, sebum secretion decreases, and skin's water retention capacity decreases, thus making the skin drier and drier.

2. Climate change. The change of external climate will lead to abnormal secretion of sebaceous glands and sweat glands, rough skin surface and weakened resistance. After a long time, it may be habitually dry.

3, lack of sleep, fatigue, excessive weight loss and partial eclipse will cause considerable harm to the body, and blood circulation will also deteriorate. If the health is out of balance, the skin will be lifeless and prone to dryness and roughness.

4. Bathing with overheated water, using irritating soap or detergent, or female endocrine changes can also lead to dry skin. However, this is a short-term phenomenon and can be improved immediately.
