The skin needs special care during the winter season, because during this time the skin can be damaged due to cold winds and low humidity. During cold weather, the humidity in the air is reduced, so the skin begins to look dry and rough. Apart from this, due to the drop in temperature in winter, it is important to maintain moisture in our skin. Many people use beauty products and home remedies to hydrate their skin and keep it glowing.
In home remedies, people make paste with many natural things or apply it directly on the face, but this can also damage the skin. Today we are going to talk to you about some natural things that you should avoid applying to your face in winter.
lemon juice
Many people use lemon juice for skin care. Its use for skin care in winter should be avoided. Lemon contains vitamin C and is known to lighten the skin. But lemon contains citric acid, which can reduce the skin’s natural moisture and may cause more damage to people with dry skin in winter. Because of this, the skin starts to look drier. At the same time, applying lemon can cause problems such as itching and burning of the skin.
sandalwood powder
Sandalwood powder is generally used to cool the skin and make the face glow, but in winter it can dry out the skin. Sandalwood has cooling properties for the skin, so applying it to your face in winter can absorb moisture from the skin, which can cause problems such as dryness and irritation.
baking soda
Many people use baking soda. But its use should be avoided during the winter season. Because the pH level of baking soda is higher than the pH level of the skin. In such a situation, its use may worsen the pH level of the skin, due to which problems such as dryness, irritation or redness may occur on the skin.
