Do you wake up with dry skin on your face during the winter months?
You probably think the cold's responsible. But the culprit could be low humidity in your home. This dry air causes you skin to dry out with dire consequences.
Your skin may crack and peel and your your wrinkles can become more prominent. To make things worse, you probably find your lips cracking, too. All in all, a very unpleasant state of things.
The trouble is that dry air sucks moisture out of your skin so the best solution is to control the level of humidity in the air.
Ideally, the level of relative humidity in your home should be around 35% to 45% but using heaters can cause this to plunge to single figures with disastrous consequences for your skin. Fortunately remedying this situation is easy.
You just need to use a cool mist humidifier to boost the humidity level in your home. Your skin then absorbs the moisture throughout the day and night making it soft and smooth.
Cool mist humidifiers are simple devices which work by transforming water into fine droplets and blasting it out into the air. This vapor then raises the humidity in your home.
Humidifiers are inexpensive devices and they're cheap and easy to run. You just need to fill the tank with water, switch it on, and let it do its work. Better humidifiers are self regulating and shut off when the water level gets low.
Other than moisturising your skin and lips, a cool air humidifier can also relieve cold and congested sinuses. It can even help keep your house plants from wilting. If you want to look your best during the winter months, invest in a cool mist humidifier. It will bring the freshness back to your skin and lower winter infections at the same time.
