Beauty & Spa Essential winter skin care tips From Dr. Douglas Grace Always wear sunscreen 17 · Wednesday, January 30, 2013 OAKVILLE BEAVER · www.insideHALTON.com Winter is a time for dry houses, cold winter breezes and over indulgences, so it is no wonder that people's skin becomes dry and sensitive. That is why it is even more important to remember your skin care regime during the cold season. Use a good quality skin care Sunscreen should still be part of your daily make up application process during the winter. You should put it on before your regular moisturizer. Although some moisturizers come with a low SPF we always encourage our patients to wear a separate sunscreen as they offer better coverage and protection.

Over the counter options do not typically have enough active ingredients to really make an impact. Lines that you can purchase at a cosmetic surgeon or dermatologist's office are about five times stronger and should only be used with your physician's guidance as you can do damage to your skin if not used properly. We have been really impressed with the ZO line as it has shown extremely impressive results. I also encourage my patients to consider doing their IPL laser treatments this time of year as it is easier to keep out of the sun following the procedures. These treatments help to address some of the discolouring people may have on their face due to sun damage and can help reduce fine lines.
