Winter Breakouts

Have you noticed a few breakouts this winter? No doubt the weather and all the layers we start to pile on are the culprit. The constant contact with scarves and hats against the skin cause flare ups now and again. In order to prevent this, you need to make sure you take a bit more care of your skin. You should be washing your face everyday regardless, however now toner is a necessity. The cheapest option, and my personal favorite, is Witch Hazel. You can find Witch Hazel at your local convenience store, and the best news is that a bottle seldom costs more than $5. Certainly your grandmother kept a bottle of Witch Hazel in her medicine cabinet. It is a natural astringent that comes from the Witch Hazel plant, therefore it is the most natural toner you can find. You can reapply during the day with a cotton swab. Not only will it keep your breakouts in check, but it is extremely refreshing.
