It is bad enough the credit card bills come piling in, do we also need the wrinkles and dry skin? Shopping, parties, family in town, traveling, etc. there are so many things going on this time of year, sometimes neglecting ourselves in the process and even our skin.<\/span><\/div>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<\/header>\n<div class=\"m_168818385251638188entry-content\">\n<h3>Healthy Skin in December<\/h3>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<p>1. Wear Your Sunscreen- Even though the sun is gone, we still need to be aware of the UVA rays that are present year round. These are the rays that can cause skin cancer and premature aging.<\/p>\n<p>2. If you\u2019re stressed out, your skin will show it. I know that being \u201cstress free\u201d isn\u2019t always an option but it\u2019s important to take a time-out every once in a while. Go do some yoga, get a pedicure, a facial (<a href=\"https:\/\/newleafcenters.com\/\"><em>call New Leaf Wellness<\/em><\/a>) or just relax by the fire. We all know these things but we need to be reminded.<\/p>\n<p>3. Manicures- All your running around at the malls and cooking are going to wreak havoc on your hands and nails. Mix any oil (olive, jojoba, grape seed) with a lotion or apply by itself for extra hydration to save your skin for cracking and bleeding.<\/p>\n<p>4. Chapped Lips- This is when you need a Lip BALM, not a chapstick. A balm will heal your lips and a chapstick will protect your lips. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.burtsbees.com\/\">Burt\u2019s Bees<\/a> is my absolute favorite.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/newleafcenters.com\/easy-tips-for-a-healthy-skincare\/\">Enjoy this post?

You can find it in scrubs and lotions and it will make your feet feel fantastic! Or add <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/s\/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Daps&amp;field-keywords=peppermint+oil\">peppermint oil<\/a> to your current favorite lotion!<\/p>\n<p>6. Dry Skin- \u00a0Did you know that people with dry skin tend to age faster than those with oily skin? Yep, there is an advantage to oily skin.\u00a0Keep your skin hydrated and not just your face. I\u2019m obsessed with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/s\/ref=nb_sb_ss_c_1_6?url=search-alias%3Daps&amp;field-keywords=grapeseed+oil&amp;sprefix=grapes%2Caps%2C170&amp;crid=OM14W4L7DVGA&amp;rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Agrapeseed+oil\">grapeseed oil<\/a> right now so that is my go-to oil but whatever works for you is good. Just make sure you use it consistently. Those heaters can dry out our skin and make things worse.<\/p>\n<p>7. Makeup- Keep it light and dewy and wash your face every night!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">If you&#8217;re feeling like these tips are great, but you need more, we hear you!
