SkinCare Physicians Doctors

February 13, 2015

Dr. Jeffrey Dover is one of five skin care experts to share his tips on how to combat winter dryness and dullness, which main cause is indoor heating. “While the humidity outside may be as high as 60 or 70 percent, the inside humidity is in the 15 to 20 percent range,” says Dr. Dover to editors at Q, the editorial site of the Equinox fitness and rejuvenation clubs. The best way to protect your skin from dryness is through prevention. “Avoid hot baths and long hot showers, use a moisturizing cleanser rather than soap, which will help keep skin from drying out, and apply moisturizer while the skin is still damp after showering,” he advises. “Following this regimen is a good way to prevent the skin from drying out and also keep it from getting that dull look which increases as the winter progresses.” He also reveals his favorite moisturizing cleanser for the winter, which is Olay 2-in-1 Essential Oil Ribbons moisturizing body wash. He recommends for the face, Aveeno Clear Complexion, CeraVe PM and Cetaphil cream, and for the body, Cetaphil lotion and Aveeno Eczema Therapy Moisturizing Cream.
