Episode 21: Fall and Winter Key Skin Strategies
As the weather changes, your skin can change too. There are great holistic ways to take care of your skin as it adapts to the seasons. I recently did some google-searching how to keep your skin healthy as the weather gets colder, and I found a lot of misinformation - so I hope this episode brings you clarity.
Today, I share my insights as a holistic MD about what to do (and not to do!) to take care of your skin as it recovers from the sun exposure it received during the summer months. I also share my tips on how to help your skin transition seamlessly into fall and winter. I also talk about specific ingredients and products to incorporate into your skincare routine during this time. I address the harmful effects of chemical peels, how moisturizers work and the best ingredients to looks for in moisturizers, how to deal with age spots holistically, and much more.
