So as we creep towards chillier temperatures, now's the time to get your dry skin issues under control. Once you're exposed to indoor heating and ripping winds the flakes will really start flying. Being consistent while using the right products is the key to well-nourished skin. Get out in front of flakes with these healthy grooming fixes.
Dandruff sucks. And yes, it gets worse during the winter. The trick to being flake free is to use a specially formulated dandruff shampoo every time you wash your hair. And if your scalp builds up a tolerance to your favorite brand have another on deck. To wear those dark sweaters with confidence, lather up with Malin + Goetz Dandruff Shampoo with flake fighting Pyrithione Zinc and a refreshing Eucalyptus scent.
Using the wrong styling product can also cause flakes. Cheap gel and sticky goo can be hard to wash out. It can also leave your hair feeling crunchy and crispy. Quality ingredients count. Use Grooming Lounge Some Hair Stuff for maximum workability and pliability. Tame that frizz, style, and re-style without flaking or leaving a greasy shine. We give this hair hero bonus points for nourishing your locks while holding your do in place.
Beardruff is a thing. And choosing a beard shampoo can be tricky. Remember you also have to care for the skin underneath that manly facial fur. Bluebeards Original Beard Wash Extra Conditioning fights flakes with natural ingredients like lime and Aloe, Vitamin B and E. The peppermint fragrance will keep your beard minty fresh and flake free.
Keeping your beard conditioned is easy with Beardbrand Tree Ranger Beard Oil. Just a few drops of this nourishing blend of Jojoba, Grapeseed and Almond Oils will keep your scruff soft and shiny while added essential oils will supply antiseptic properties to treat the flaky skin underneath.
Flakey dry skin, ingrown hairs, and clogged pores aren't limited to your face. Your bod needs love and some deep exfoliation too. Molton Brown Re-charge Black Pepper SPORT Body Scrub lifts out dirt and grime and exfoliates the dead surface cells.
Now that your skin is primed it’s time for a coat of moisturizer. No, not all lotions are greasy. Dermalogica Body Hydrating Cream absorbs quickly to keep flaky skin at bay while alpha-hydroxy acids further exfoliate and smooth out your rough spots.
