Winter skincare doesn’t have to be complicated. There are easy, affordable ways to keep skin soft and hair healthy in the winter months. Learn how to combat dryness and roughness and pamper skin and hair all season long with this excerpt from Skincare-News.com’s latest article, “Top 5 Ways to Winter-Proof Your Skin and Hair.”

 

 

 

1. Take advantage of DIY beauty recipes. Frustrated by high prices at the spa or beauty counter? This winter, don’t let a lack of funds get in the way of restoring moisture and radiance to dull hair and skin. DIY beauty treatments are easy to make, fully customizable and can boost anyone’s beauty routine. Using simple ingredients, people can learn how to make restorative treatments for face, hair, lips, hands and body.

 

 

2. Indulge in some winter beauty decadence. Bored with the same old routine? This winter, get tips on worthwhile splurges and well-deserved pampering from head to toe.
