			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the winter, a drop in humidity and temperature coupled with a higher thermostat setting at home results in drier air. For most people, dry air can lead to dry, itchy skin.<br />
&#8220;It&#8217;s important to try and control some parts of your immediate environment,&#8221; Myers said. &#8220;The goal is to keep as much moisture in the skin as possible to prevent any itching, irritation or redness.&#8221;</p>
<p>Tips to protect your skin in winter season  :<br />
- Use humidifiers throughout the house or at least in the bedroom.<br />
- Wear protective gloves to minimize exposure to the elements.<br />
- Don’t squint in the glare of snow and ice. Wear sunglasses when necessary.</p>
<p>HAIR :<br />
- Expose your hair to deep conditioning. Massage your hair in aloe Vera juice for a few minutes. This will restore its softness.<br />
- Treat your hair with oil massage once or twice a week. Olive oil can work wonders in reinforcing moisture to your hair. Heat the oil before using and allow it to soak for a time lesser than the time you allot for the summer season. Too long a period of soaking hair in oil can get you ill.<br />
- Avoid exposing your hair to frequent coloring, streaking, or ironing as they can rob your hair off its moisture.<br />
- Expose your hair to natural drying. </p>
<p>SKIN :<br />
- A proper nutritious intake helps in rejuvenating the skin from within.<br />
- Drink water regularly throughout the day.<br />
- Primrose syrup and olive oil in your diet also aids in softening your skin.<br />
- Pamper you skin with a little coconut oil before bath to heal dryness and chaps.<br />
- Moisturizers and cold creams are a must in the winters.<br />
- Add a few drops of oil to the water that you are using to bath. This will help retain the moisture lost when bathing.<br />
- Take shorter, cooler showers instead of longer, hotter ones.<br />
- After showering and before drying off completely, apply a moisturizer or emollient on the skin.<br />
- Give your skin steam treatments and steam baths. After the steam treatment, lock in moisture with a deeply replenishing cream, lotion or gel.<br />
- Protect skin around eyes with a richer, cell replenishing formula in winter.<br />
-  Protect lips with lip balm or gel.</p>
