8 Ways to Get Your Skin Ready for Winter
冬季来临 你的皮肤做好准备了吗
Cold temperatures, low humidity and extreme weather conditions can damage your skin. During the cold winter months you may notice that your skin is dull, itchy and dehydrated. Binge eating and binge drinking during a holiday season can only worsen the situation. Luckily, you can make your beauty routine less problematic in winter by following some easy and handy tips and tricks.
低温，干燥和极端天气都会损害你的皮肤。寒冷的冬季，你可能会发现你的皮肤暗淡，瘙痒和干燥。节日期间暴饮暴食只会让状况更加糟糕。幸运的是，遵循下面这些简单便捷的技巧和建议，你的冬季美容程序会更加顺利。
1. Stock up on creams
1.购买护肤霜
In winter your skin requires more care than in summer. During a cold season you should stock up on creams and avoid using lotions. Creams usually have heavier formulas and they may feel a bit more uncomfortable on your skin. But they are the best protectors against severe weather conditions. Winter creams contain more fatty ingredients, which prevent dehydration and roughness. Apply creams before bed and not less than 30 minutes before going outdoors. You should also skip light makeup formulas and consider heavier foundations, cream shadows and lipsticks.
冬季，你的皮肤需要比夏季更多的护理。寒冷的季节，你应该多使用一些润肤霜，而不是润肤露。虽然乳霜更加浓稠，涂抹在皮肤上可能产生不适。但是乳霜是恶劣的天气条件下保护皮肤最好的武器。因为乳霜含有更多油脂成分，可以防止皮肤脱水和粗糙。上床睡觉之前和外出至少30分钟前涂抹乳霜。另外，你还应该避免淡妆，考虑更加厚重的粉底，眼影膏和唇膏。
2. Use a sunscreen daily
2.每天使用防晒霜
Many women mistakenly believe that their skin doesn’t need sunscreens in winter. In fact, sun is rather harmful to your skin all year round, and in winter the harmful effect is just reinforced by cold temperatures and wind. Unless you apply a sunscreen, you can get a burn even in winter. If your everyday cream doesn’t contain SPF, consider buying sunscreens with SPF 15 and higher. Sunscreens are essential if you spend a lot of time outdoors working or exercising. Make sure you apply your sunscreen at least half an hour before you go outdoors.
许多女性错误地认为冬季她们的皮肤不需要防晒霜。实际上，一年四季太阳对你的皮肤都非常有害，而冬季，由于低温和大风，太阳的有害作用被进一步强化。除非涂抹防晒霜，否则即使在冬季，皮肤也可能被阳光灼伤。如果你平时使用的乳霜不含SPF成分，考虑购买SPF15或防晒系数更高的防晒霜。如果你每天花费许多时间在户外工作或锻炼，防晒霜是必须的。为了你的白嫩肌肤，务必在出门前半小时涂抹防晒霜。
3. Don’t forget about your gloves
3.不要忘记戴手套
Gloves are often a very neglected and underrated item, thus most people decide to put on gloves only when the temperatures turn extremely cold. However, you should wear gloves during fall and winter seasons to protect your skin against redness, frostbite and roughness. The skin on your hands is much more sensitive and vulnerable during the cold winter months, so they need more moisturizing and nourishing than ever. For a better effect you can apply your hand cream before wearing gloves.
手套的作用通常很容易被忽略和低估，大部分人只有在气温非常低的时候才戴手套。然而，秋季和冬季都应该戴上手套，防止皮肤红肿，冻伤和粗糙。寒冷的冬季，手部皮肤更加敏感，更加脆弱，所以需要额外保湿和滋润。为了取得更好的滋润效果，可以先涂上厚厚的护手霜，再戴上手套。
4. Take short showers
4.缩短淋浴时间
A long hot shower is really what I love and need in winter, but the truth is that hot showers are very harmful to the skin as well as soaking in a hot tub. Hot water promotes excess dryness and dehydration; it removes the upper protective layer of your skin and make it more vulnerable to irritants. Even if you have oily skin you’d better avoid using soaps. Instead, opt for nourishing shower gels and apply body creams and moisturizers right after you take a shower. Consider reducing your shower time and opt for lukewarm water while taking a bath.
寒冷的冬季，洗个舒服的热水澡实在是一大享受，但事实是，热水淋浴和热水泡澡一样对皮肤非常有害。热水会加重皮肤干燥和脱水，破坏皮肤表面的保护层，使皮肤更容易受刺激。即使你是油性皮肤，最好也避免使用肥皂。相反，选择滋润性的沐浴露，淋浴后立即涂抹润肤霜和保湿霜。为了你的皮肤，请缩短淋浴时间，尽量用温水洗澡。
5. Moisturize
5.保湿
Don’t wait until your hands and face become dry and scaly! You should start using moisturizers when the thermometer shows sub-zero temperatures. Pay special attention to your hands. Applying a hand moisturizer twice a day may be insufficient. Ideally, you should use hand creams 5 or 6 times a day, depending on your skin type. While you have a tube of a moisturizer in your bath, it’s also necessary that you carry a hand cream in your handbag and use it each time you wash your hands.
不要等到手部和面部皮肤变得干燥时才想起保湿。当温度计显示温度接近零度时，你就应该使用保湿产品了。特别注意你的双手。每天使用两次护手霜是不够的。最理想的是每天使用五次或六次，具体情况根据你的皮肤类型决定。浴室里放一支护手霜，手提袋里随身携带一支，以便每次洗手后使用。
6. Reconsider your diet
6.调整饮食
You know that your skin reflects your health, thus it’s directly connected with your diet and nutrition. Have you ever noticed that your skin becomes sallow and flaky in winter? Perhaps, you need to reconsider your everyday diet and alter your eating habits. During a cold season your body requires more fats, that’s why you should skip a low-calorie diet and increase your intake of veggies, fish, dairy products and healthy fats. Sticking to a healthy diet will make your skin radiant and healthy and help you lose some pounds. Increase the consumption of citrus fruits, greens and seafood as well. Not only will it provide a protection against dryness and peeling, it will also slow down aging processes and reduce small wrinkles.
皮肤可以反映健康状况，皮肤与饮食和营养之间存在直接联系。你是否发现你的皮肤在冬季变得蜡黄而且还会起皮儿？或许你应该重新考虑日常饮食，改变饮食习惯了。在寒冷的天气里，你的身体需要更多脂肪，所以你应该避免低热量饮食，增加蔬菜，鱼，奶制品和健康脂肪的摄入量。坚持健康饮食可以帮助你的皮肤散发健康的光彩，同时帮你减肥。另外，还要多吃柑橘类水果，绿叶蔬菜和海产品。这些食物不仅可以防止皮肤干燥脱皮，还可以延缓衰老，减少细纹。
7. Stay hydrated
7.补充水份
I rarely meet people who drink the recommended amount of water daily; even more rarely people drink enough in winter. You may not feel thirsty during a cold season, but in fact your hydration needs don’t depend on the season. Drinking a lot of water is highly beneficial to your health and beauty. It helps to get rid of toxins, increases elasticity and promotes rejuvenation. While you should drink at least 8 glasses of water per day, try to cut down on caffeine, carbonated water and black tea.
很少有人每天能够摄入推荐水量；冬季饮用足够的水的人则更少。寒冷的天气里你或许不会感到口渴，但是实际上身体对水的需求并不因季节而改变。大量饮水对健康和美容都大有裨益，可以帮助身体排毒，增加皮肤弹性，恢复青春活力。每天至少饮用八杯水，尽量减少咖啡，苏打水和红茶的摄入量。
8. Don’t overlook scrubs
8.不要忽视去角质
All your skin care products will appear useless if you don’t exfoliate your skin regularly especially during the fall months, since it helps to get your skin ready for winter. Dermatologists and beauty professionals say that you should exfoliate your skin 3 times a week during winter months. Not only will it help to remove dead cells, dirt and residues of cosmetics, it will also improve the complexion and texture of your skin. Using exfoliants three times a week is a sure way to a healthy and radiant skin. Winter outfit doesn’t display your body and heels, but they also need extra exfoliation in winter. Consider doing regular pedicure to avert cracked, unhealthy dry heels.
如果你不经常去角质，所有的护肤品都无效，尤其是在秋季。秋季进行去角质，可以使你的皮肤为冬季做好准备。皮肤病医生和美容专家表示，冬季每周应该去三次角质。这样不仅可以帮助去除死皮，污垢和化妆品残留，还能改善肤色和纹理。每周使用三次去角质产品，能够拥有健康光彩肌肤。冬季，虽然你的身体和脚后跟不会暴露在外面，但是这些部位也需要额外去角质。经常修脚，防止脚后跟皴裂、不健康。
