How to Keep Your Skin Healthy and Moisturized During the Colder Months

As the temperature drops, our skin tends to lose its natural moisture, which may lead to eczema and psoriasis flare-ups. Do not fret because there are ways to protect your skin during these chilly months. As an aesthetician, I recommend a few changes to your routine that will help you stay healthy and moisturized.

• Use lukewarm or cooler water to clean your face and body instead of hot water in the shower, as it can dry out your skin. After showering, use body butter instead of lotion. Body butters are thicker and provide a better barrier for your skin.
• Look for products that contain cocoa butter, shea butter, and/or mango butter. Our Coco-Shea is a must-have for these winter months. It contains all three butters and two moisturizing carrier oils (avocado and grape seed oil) that work together to lock in your skin’s moisture and minimize dryness with continued use.
• Another product I recommend is our Goat Milk Soap. It is excellent for people with dry or sensitive skin, and skin conditions like eczema or psoriasis. Goat milk is rich in fatty acids, niacin, and vitamins like thiamine and vitamin B6.

Lastly, try our Oatmeal Honey bath bomb. It contains shea butter, honey, grape seed oil, and goat milk working together to provide ultra-conditioning.

There are 4 benefits of using natural pumpkin in skincare products that can help us look younger and more vibrant.

1. Pumpkin contains fruit enzymes and alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), which increase cell turnover, to brighten and smooth the skin.
2. Pumpkin contains antioxidant Vitamin A and Vitamin C to help soften and soothe the skin and boost collagen production to prevent the signs of aging.
3. Pumpkin contains beta-carotene which helps to reverse UV damage and improve skin texture. It protects the skin from radical damage which is responsible for causing wrinkles and even skin cancer.=
4. Pumpkin actually acts as a natural chemical peel over time and use.

A Caring Touch Skin Therapy owner and trained licensed clinical aesthetician, Rhonda McDaniel has created natural pumpkin soap, lotion, and body scrub. These products were specifically designed to help the maturing woman see her skin look younger and more vibrant with use over time. You see as we age, our cells can take anywhere from 45-90 days to renew, unlike when we were young and our cells renewed in two weeks! Using natural pumpkin soap and lotion reduces that time and helps us look more youthful over time.

To see the best results, Rhonda recommends using pumpkin soap every evening to wash your face, followed by moisturizing with pumpkin lotion. Your skincare regimen is best done in the evening before bed because our systems repair themselves while we sleep.  “This is when cells need nutrients the most, and when their anti-aging benefits have maximum impact.”

A Caring Touch Skin Therapy carries all-natural pumpkin soap made with real pumpkin puree as well as pumpkin lotion and pumpkin body scrub with pumpkin spice! The pumpkin body scrub is good for the whole body and is not recommended for the face. You can order the all-natural pumpkin skin products here. Typically your order will be delivered within 2 days of ordering or you can pick it up from CoWork Landing in Brandon.

We are also proud to have our products available for purchase at Creativity Unpinned in Wesley Chapel at The Shops at Wiregrass Mall.

This time of year we see pumpkin everywhere, from our coffee orders to displays at the stores. Now you know how good it is for your skin! Order today to start renewing your skin with our pumpkin skincare products.
