Edit How to maintain moisture in your skin during winter

<p>In an interview, Dr Obagi founder of <a href="/treatment/zo-skin-health-and-medical-skincare/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ZO Skin Health</a>, describes the skin's self-regulation as that of a tree.</p> <p>He says,<em> “A tree gets its nutrients from the ground; no matter how much you spray the tree, it will become dry.”</em></p> <p>Given Dr Obagi’s comment, at best these types of products are a fast fix that temporarily gives the illusion of smoother skin but does nothing to improve the condition of the skin deep down.</p> <p>I would suggest using an oil-free alternative such as ZO Skin Health Daily Power Defence as it not only rebuilds your skin’s natural barrier function but also helps to protect from free radicals.</p> <p>You can also add to your normal beauty regime by treating yourself to a booster treatment or two, such as the <a href="/treatment/hydrafacial/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">HydraFacial</a> for an ultimate hydration hit.</p> <p>Product ingredients are also important factors when dry skin. For instance, hyaluronic acid is a powerful hydrator, it draws water up from the deeper layers of the skin into the more superficial layers.</p> <p>Glycolic acid and salicylic acid are both great for speeding up the shedding of dead, dry and dull skin.</p> <p>These are great contributors to the healthy glow we all desire. However, exfoliation can easily be overlooked but it is a crucial step in the skincare routine.</p> <p>Not only does it help with dead skin removal, but it prepares your skin for the application of products that treat the skin.</p> <p>This means, you’ll be able to gain much more effective results from products, as they are able to penetrate deeper into the skin.</p>
