The way the skin looks is almost the first thing that indicates the age and well-being of a person. And she is almost continuously under external influence, which does not add to her either health or beauty. Even every season has its own "weapon arsenal" to damage the skin. Therefore, caring for him, depending on the season, has its own characteristics.

Factors affecting the condition of the skin
In winter, the skin experiences a sharp change in temperature. There is no pleasure in this for any person or hands, which in the first place are under the influence of such changes. And if red spots appear on the body or the lines of the thinnest vessels appear (rosacea), then during such a period these troubles are even more aggravated. Due to the influence of temperature, some people develop acne.
The water that evaporates from the cells takes the form of crystals in the cold. Due to this, cells are rapidly destroyed, which also leads to diseases of the dermis.
By the spring, in addition to the problems accumulated over the winter, in the body, most people develop signs of vitamin deficiency, which are again indicated by lifeless, dull and flaky skin. If the dermis is very sensitive, then it becomes tight, sometimes reddens.

In summer, despite all the joys of the warmth and the beneficial influence of the sun, the other side of such factors also makes itself felt. Ultraviolet light and high temperatures, dry wind and dust can dry out the skin and trigger early aging.
Ultraviolet light negatively affects the collagen in the dermis, which affects its tone.Dust, especially urban dust, penetrating into the pores, does not allow her to breathe normally. The work of the sebaceous and sweat glands is disrupted.
In autumn, the influence of ultraviolet radiation is still great, plus a cold wind and a sharp change in temperatures begin. With the beginning of the heating season, the air in houses becomes dry. From mid-October, many begin to again experience a lack of vitamins, including vitamin D, on which the appearance of the dermis depends very significantly.

Depending on the type
Features of facial skin care in a certain season largely depend on its type.
In cosmetology, there are five types of skin.
- Bold. It can be identified by its characteristic shine, enlarged pores and frequent breakouts of acne and blackheads. Due to the fatty film, wrinkles on such skin appear later than in owners of other types of skin. The oily dermis is characterized by good elasticity and normal moisture content.
- Dry. It is thin, not elastic enough, easily inflamed and ages quickly. Acne rarely appears on this type of skin, but external factors, including weather, can cause great harm to it.

![](https://fashion.decorexpro.com/images/article/cropped/337-337/2018/06/tonkosti-sezonnogo-uhoda-za-kozhej-7.jpg)
- Normal. It is characterized by sufficient elasticity, moderate sensitivity. Pores are invisible on it, it has an even, healthy color. And only over the years, the owners of this type show signs of dryness of the dermis - wrinkles and cracks. A small number of women are happy owners of such skin.
- Combined. It is oily on the forehead, chin and nose. But on the cheekbones and cheeks - dry. Often prone to allergies, it can have all sorts of irritations, including acne. It is more common than other types.

![](https://fashion.decorexpro.com/images/article/cropped/337-337/2018/06/tonkosti-sezonnogo-uhoda-za-kozhej-9.jpg)
- Sensitive (problematic). It gets dry and sore quickly. It is difficult for her to find the right cosmetics, since such skin reacts in the most unexpected way to different components. It has poor elasticity and is weakly resistant to external influences.
Also, when choosing a care method, you should take into account the age of the skin. Over the years, problems of different types only worsen it, as does the reaction to weather exposure.

We take into account the season
In the autumn-winter period, when problems with dryness and peeling begin, measures should be taken to carefully care for the skin.
Wash your face, it is better not to use agents that strongly affect the dermis. This will help her to secrete the right amount of sebum and protect from rashes and acne, as well as from various kinds of inflammatory processes in cold weather.
After water treatments in winter conditions, you should always use nourishing products to protect the upper layers of the skin. The area around the eyes requires special attention. The skin here is especially thin and cannot fully withstand the effects of cold air. Therefore, it is important to maintain it with a nourishing cream.
Also, scarves and hats that are constantly in contact with the surface of the body require regular washing, since microorganisms that multiply in knitted things negatively affect the skin in contact with it. If acne appears on the head, it is better to wash the hat at least once a week.
In autumn and winter, as in summer, UV protection is important. Therefore, you need to choose protective equipment that provide it.

Sun activity is also high in spring, so creams with an appropriate filter will come in handy. It is better to use them half an hour before leaving the house. In the evening, after cleansing your face, you need to apply a night cream, which until the morning should nourish the skin prone to spring vitamin deficiency with everything necessary for beauty and radiance.
For moisturizing, it is also useful to make masks with the appropriate effect. You can take dairy products and fruits as a basis.
In addition, you should drink as much water as possible - at least two liters per day.
As for cosmetics, you can now refuse powder and thick foundation, which, among other things, were an obstacle in the path of frost.From now on, the skin must be allowed to freely receive a sufficient amount of oxygen.
Instead of heavy creams, it is better to switch to protective products with a light texture.

In the summer season, it is good to add homemade to store protective (including from the sun), tonics.
To cleanse the skin, it is better to use "potions" with a light texture based on herbal extracts. To wash off cosmetics - with napkins impregnated with lotion. After your morning and evening wash, it is good to use a mint or chamomile toner.
The key to the beauty of the skin will be its regular hydration, which should be carried out in the morning and evening. Instead of thick saturated creams, serums and emulsions should be used that do not create another dense layer on the skin, which prevents air from entering the pores. In the evening, the procedure should be carried out half an hour before going to bed. This will help prevent swelling on your face. Moisturize the eyelids with a firming product.
Cosmetics used in summer should also be lightweight. Water-based decorative products work best. It is undesirable to use lipsticks with a dense texture. Sequins and bright eyeliners are also useless here. With the help of an emulsion with sunscreen properties, you can tone the skin, give it the necessary moisture and hide minor imperfections.
It is better to keep the cosmetic bag with all its contents in the refrigerator.
