HOW TO PREVENT WINTER ACNE ❄️☃️
(Seasonal Acne Tips from a Licensed Esthetician)
1. During winter, we’re more likely to develop seasonal affective disorder (aka seasonal depression) which can lead to sleep problems and stress eating.
2. During winter, we also have decreased vitamin D from lack of sun and increased porphyins (bacterial excretions) from artificial heating.
3. We’re also overeating (holidays) and craving more comfort foods.
We can help prevent winter acne by doing what we can to mitigate these factors. Drink lots of water, continue eating antioxidants and omega 3 rich foods, and support our skin topically with a proper skincare routine! (Winter skincare routine tips coming next!!)
