Winter Skin Care Tips
- Moisturize often (pick something
greasy and without fragrance)
- Limit your contact with chemicals that
can irritate your skin (ex. detergents)
- Wash your hands only when
necessary and use a cleanser or mild
soap
- Keep your showers short ( less than
10 minutes) and lukewarm
- Wear gloves to protect the skin on
your hands
- Wear clothes made of cotton or a
cotton blend
- Don't forget to use sunblock on your
face and remember to do a monthly
skin exam for new or changing moles:
One in 39 men and one in 58 women
will develop melanoma in their
lifetime.
