Stay tan free this winters

The winter months are that time of year when the cold can harm your skin. In fact, there's a good chance you might even get a little darker. Your body starts to tremble in the cold, so you turn to the sun to warm up while oblivious to the damage it does to your skin.

One of the top concerns that prevents people from going outside and enjoying the sun is sun tanning. It's common, especially in the summer, to get a tan from the intense sun's heat. 

What is tanning?

Melanin, or the skin's pigment, increases during the process of tanning, which is brought on by sunlight exposure. This is how the skin is protected from sun damage by the body naturally.

When exposed to intense sunlight, your body releases melanin just below the surface of your skin. Thus, UV radiation is more effectively absorbed. Thus, the pigmentation increases and the tan darkens with increased UV exposure.

Following a few skin care guidelines will help you maintain luscious, radiant skin all winter long while protecting your skin from tanning.

1. Exfoliation

Exfoliation is one of the best ways to maintain smooth, tan-free skin, and it works best when done with a loofah or a cloth to remove the topmost layer of skin. Regular exfoliation will also keep your skin supple and soft.

2. Moisturize

It's important to keep your skin hydrated during the winter because the cold weather always makes it harder for skin to retain moisture. The changing weather necessitates a change in your skin care regimen as well.

4. Apply Aloe Vera gel

To lighten skin tone, daily apply aloe Vera gel to the sun-exposed area. It not only helps to nourish and cleanse the skin, but it also makes it soft and supple. Aloe Vera must be applied before bed and skin must be thoroughly washed in the morning for it to be effective.

5. Use a good serum

If it's summer, you might want to avoid using facial oils or serums because they can make your skin feel oily and heavy. The fall season, however, may see amazing results for your skin. It balances your skin and aids in moisture restoration.
