Cold Weather Tips for Beautiful Skin

♦  Cold weather and cool winds, according to Ayurveda, aggravate 'Vata' dosha and cause dry skin conditions, so one has to adjust his lifestyle and diet to add warmth, lubrication and moisture.
♦  Take fewer baths and showers in the cold season to avoid dryness. When you take a bath, add a few drops of essential oil to the water to provide lubrication. Massage with it before and after showering or bathing.
♦  Take an occasional steam bath, but avoid saunas, which are dehydrating.
