10 Home Remedies for Glowing Winter Skin

Chilly winters are almost upon us…or, at least, winter is! Winters, depending on different parts of the country, can range from ‘barely chilly’ to ‘oh-so-cold’. Wherever you are from though, one thing is for sure – winter is not very kind to your skin! The dry weather can wreak havoc on your skin causing it to go all dry and flaky, and look as dull as a pale, grey winter morning. Add common daily problems like stress, lack of sleep, and an underwhelming diet to the equation, and your skin is just going to look completely tired. Unless, of course, you take steps to remedy it! And we’ve got just the skin care tips in Winter for you.

10 Remedies You Can Try at Home for Healthy Skin

Here’s a list of some homemade remedies for glowing skin in Winter. These remedies are simple and can help your skin achieve that Instagram-filter glow right from within!

1. Coconut Oil

All hail the great saviour that is coconut oil, for there’s nothing it can’t do – except maybe be used on oily skin types! But for dry and dull skin, coconut oil acts as an excellent moisturiser. Simply warm up a few drops of oil and massage it on your face. You can leave it on for 15 to 20 minutes or even overnight, and wash it off with soap. Once in a while, add some sugar to your oil and use it to exfoliate your skin. Also, when that nasty cold has you sniffing and blowing your nose constantly, a few drops of coconut oil can help soothe irritated skin around your nose. This home remedy helps your skin achieve that dewy fresh look with minimal effort.

2. Aloe Vera

Yet another popular remedy for several maladies and to promote the overall health of the skin and hair, aloe vera gel acts as a great moisturiser because of its non-greasy texture and can double as an aftershave too. It also keeps away acne and wrinkles on the skin, helping to keep your skin firm. Scrape the gel from the leaf (make sure that you drain the resin from the leaf first, as it can irritate the skin) and blend it in a mixer to form the aloe vera gel. Once you’ve washed your face, you can apply it and don’t need to rinse it off (unless you feel uncomfortable!). You can also combine the gel with other ingredients like turmeric or honey to make rejuvenating face masks.
