Whether it’s hot or humid or cold and dry, different kinds
of weather can cause everything from dry, itchy skin, brittle hair to
breakouts.
The weather can have unpredictable effects on your skin and
hair—it can aggravate sensitive skin, and can cause frizzy locks the moment you
step outside.
Luckily it only means making some small changes to your
routine.
For the Skin
Winter weather can be just as harsh as the hot and humid
days of summer.
The temperature drops, low humidity and sharp winds take
moisture out of the air.
To keep skin feeling soft and supple, you need rich and
nourishing ingredients that will lock in moisture.

For your hair
Whether you’re dealing with frizz, split ends or flat hair, lack
of moisture in the air, it can leave hair feeling dry.
To protect hair from the frizzing effects of humidity,
moisture is key.

it can get.
Adding a weekly hot oil treatment to your routine can help
keep those dry locks nourished, smoothed and ready to tackle anything winter
can throw its way.

Whether you use store bought products or use what oils you
have at home, here are the steps to a Hot Oil Treatment:
Step 1:
Heat the Oil. Take your container of oil and put it into a small bowl that’s filled with very hot water. You’ll want the water level to be just as high as the level of oil in your container. It will take maybe a minute or two for the oil to warm up to just about the water’s temperature.Step 2:
Apply the Oil to Your Hair, Starting at the Scalp.
Step 3:
Cover Your Head With a Shower Cap and Then a Hot Towel.
Step 4:
Wait 30 Minutes to 2 Hours.
Step 5:
Wash hair.
Deep conditioning with a hot oil treatment or a deep
conditioner regularly can bring dry hair back to life.
You can also add a light-weight leave-in conditioner like Living
Proof No Frizz Leave-in Conditioner, and let those locks air dry to keep
them looking their best.

When the weather gets hot, we sweat – it’s our bodies’ way
of staying cool, but it can also leave a buildup of dirt and oil on your skin
which can cause breakouts and other skin issues once the weather becomes cooler.
