The cold temperature during winter causes dry skin so moisturizing is essential in this season.
The following moisturizers can be easily made at home and are great for hydrating dry and rough skin.
Honey + glycerine + lemon juice + green tea
Take 1 teaspoon of honey, 2 teaspoons of glycerine, 1 teaspoon of lemon juice (optional), and 2 teaspoons of green tea extract and mix them in a bowl. Massage your skin with this mixture gently for a few minutes at night before going to bed. It will easily get washed off when you take a shower the next morning.
Avocado + olive oil + honey
Make a puree out of half an avocado and mix it with 1 teaspoon of olive oil. For extremely dry skin, add 1 tablespoon of honey. Apply this mixture on your skin, leave it on for 15-20 minutes, and then wash it off. This pack will soften your skin quickly.
Coconut oil
Applying only coconut oil on your skin is also effective. Apply some coconut oil to your face, skin, elbows, knees, and hands. Follow this every night before you sleep.
Honey
Honey is also an effective moisturizer in itself. Just take some raw honey, apply it on dampened skin, let it stay for 10-15 minutes, and remove with a warm washcloth. Due to its healing properties, you can use it as a face mask, too. Do it once weekly if you have an inflamed face.
