Be Radiant This Winter

Oh, the weather outside is frightful…but that doesn't mean your skin has to be. It's important to make adjustments to your skincare routine as winter approaches. Howard Murad, M.D., associate clinical professor of medicine at UCLA and founder of Murad Inc., a leader in skincare for the past two decades, shares helpful tips to help you glow during the cooler months.

Eat your fruits and veggies. "Raw foods help nourish your skin and repair damage," Murad says. Try a new fruit like the gogi berry-they are nutritionally dense and help build collagen.

Pump up the moisture. "In the winter, the air is dryer and your skin produces less oil and is less moist, so you need to use a heavier moisturizer, depending on your individual skin type's needs," Murad says.

Clean up quickly. Hot showers and soaks can dry out skin, so keep bath time to a minimum. Apply moisturizer after a bath when your skin is a little moist.

Restore your glow. "It's important to rid your skin of the negative effects from the summer sun," Murad says. Massage Envy Spa locations offers Murad products like Active Radiance™ serum that can help repair existing sun damage and protect it from future damage.
