Five Tips To Fix Winter Dryness

Here are 5 ways to hydrate under eyes in the winter:

1. Use a humidifier Dry indoor heat can seriously dehydrate the delicate under-eye area. Running a humidifier, especially in your bedroom overnight, will add moisture back into the air and help prevent that parched look come morning.
2. Avoid drying ingredients Stay away from products containing alcohol, fragrances, and sulfates as these can strip the eye area of its natural oils. Choose gentle, hydrating eye creams without these drying ingredients.
3. Apply an eye mask Gel eye masks or patches create an occlusive layer to lock in moisture. Look for ones with hyaluronic acid, ceramides, or glycerin to intensely hydrate.
4. Gently exfoliate Sloughing off dead skin cells allows hydrating ingredients to better penetrate. Use a soft washcloth and milky eye makeup remover to lightly exfoliate like Exfoliate Mate face mask once or twice a week.
5. Hydrate from the inside out The under-eye area is one of the first places dehydration shows up, so be sure to drink plenty of water daily. 

Following tips like using a humidifier, avoiding drying products, trying eye masks, gently exfoliating, and hydrating from within will help keep under-eyes supple and smooth this winter.
