1. Drink up the Moisture

In the winter, the humidity from our long, lazy summer days disappears. The air becomes dry and cold.

We already battle dry skin due to aging. Combining winter weather and mature skin translates to moisturize... moisturize... moisturize.

The first line of attack? Invest in a moisturizer made for women over the age of 50. Vibriance created its Moisturizing Cream with mature skin in mind.

Want another layer of moisture? Sleep with a humidifier.

Replenishing the moisture in your bedroom's air will awaken you to supple skin. Bonus – humidifiers help with parched sinuses, bloody noses, and cracked lips caused by winter's dry indoor air.

2. Let the sunshine in your heart, not on your skin

Winter's darkness can trick you. Even in the dimmed brightness of these months, our skin needs protection from the sun.

Remember, the ultraviolet rays cause early skin aging and are present all year. Sunscreen combats these rays and, as an extra perk, locks in moisture during the day!

Look for an SPF of at least 30 with high-quality ingredients. Vibriance Sheer Zinc Sunscreen is SPF 50, includes Hyaluronic Acid to combat fine lines, and has a slight foundation effect, so there is no need for a base on top of the sunscreen.

You don't need to avoid letting the sunshine in, but treat it like a guest and prep your skin for its arrival.

3. Leave the rub-a-dub’ing for the men in the tub

We often think to clean our skin better, we need to put elbow grease into it.

Ladies, we aren't a bathtub.

Our skin is tender, and we ought to treat it as such. When washing our face, use gentle motions with extra care to the delicate eye area. Then using patting motions, dry the excess water off your face.

While the skin is slightly damp, this is the perfect time to apply a serum like Vibriance Body Serum. From head to toe (yes, including the feet), this body serum targets the dry skin of winter and locks in the moisture more than lotion alone.

4. Mouth off

The winter wrecks our mouths. From chapped and dry lips, to even splitting and bleeding, we must put effort into keeping our mouths moisturized.

When your lips are dry, it is natural to want to try to lick your mouth to rewet. But stop - don't do it.

Our saliva contains an enzyme to digest food in our mouths. When we lick our lips, we deposit this enzyme on them, which in turn dries them out.

Instead of licking, use a lip balm or color that hydrates. Vibriance Lip Volumizer is such a product. The formula contains hyaluronic acid, plant extracts, and peptides that moisturize the mouth and smooth our fine lines.

If you are looking for color without the volume, check out the Vibriance Makeup Simplified line. Not only will you get a powerful pop of moisture, but you will also have multi-purpose sticks that you can use anywhere you want color or shine.
