While the sun may not be visible all too often during peak winters, it doesn’t mean the harmful UVA and UVB rays it emanates have stopped existing too. 

Avoid going out without sunscreens. Prefer a product which also has moisturizing elements like Shea Butter or Jojoba Oil.

When it comes to skincare, some body parts tend to get neglected often. Your elbows, neck and kneecaps require just as much attention as your face.

Shaving against the direction of your facial hair can cause unnecessary strain on the skin and make it prone to cuts. Shave in the direction they are growing, it’s both safe and better for keeping the skin smooth.

Also, use cream-based products for an after-shave, as solutions tend to have a drying effect on the skin. (Photo: Pixabay)
