When summer approaches and the anxiety of the swimsuit test begins to creep into the common consciousness, turning to body treatments to reduce the circumference of the thighs and belly, to prepare the skin for tanning or to show off always hydrated legs, is more than normal.
It is a body treatment that is also very healthy, as the skin is nourished and stimulated where it needs it most. However, with the arrival of winter, you should not stop good habits thinking that there will be layers and layers of clothes to cover the misdeed.
Products useful for pampering the body can be found everywhere, from physical perfumeries to the page of your favorite reference store : body treatments , nourishing creams and lotions, the possibilities available are many and there are no excuses for not taking care of the body even in winter. In fact, the reasons for using them are truly numerous.
Keep your skin hydrated
First of all, body treatments should also be used in winter mainly to keep the skin of the whole body always hydrated . In winter, skin dryness is accentuated both by the colder temperatures and by the more intense use of tights and heavy fabrics, which rub on the skin and cause more significant flaking, and for this reason using a moisturizing cream after the shower is essential to have a body that is always well hydrated and silky.
Protect your skin from the cold
The main problem of winter, as we know, is the cold, and just as the face and hands suffer, the rest of the body suffers too. Specific products for winter are specifically designed to protect the entire body from the coldest temperatures and, for this very reason, you should not stop using body treatments in the coldest months. The skin does not dry out, discolorations do not emerge and skin nourishment remains constant, without imbalances from summer to winter.
Remove dead cells
Taking care of your body’s skin also means eliminating dead cells that remain deposited on the skin’s surface and that thicken the skin. Doing exfoliating scrubs and peels regularly helps to keep the skin smooth and free from excess cells, reactive to treatments and much brighter and healthier. The trick is to use less aggressive treatments in winter so as not to stress the skin too much and damage it, but apart from this there are no reasons to interrupt good summer habits in this sense.
Don’t lose your results
After spending 3, 4 or 5 months preparing your skin for the sun, eliminating cellulite, losing annoying centimeters and so on, suddenly stopping all treatments does not bring any benefit and actually makes you lose all the results obtained up to that point. Continuing to use bandages, muds, anti-cellulite creams or products that stimulate circulation does nothing but good to our body and allows you to create a constant and beneficial routine .
