The cool breeze of winter is soothing to your senses but can cause havoc to your skin. This winter, follow these simple 5 tips to prevent dryness, cracking and irritation and enjoy beautiful skin even in the cold months.



5 essential skin care regimen for a glowing skin in winter


1. Exfoliation
Dead cells tend to be dry and coarse requiring regular exfoliation, specially in the winter months. Exfoliation helps cellular regeneration and allows new and healthy skin to surface. The new skin is moist and remains hydrated for a longer time.

2. Moisturization 
Moisturize your skin daily with a good moisturizer that has ingredients like shea butter, vitamin E, or  other natural hydrating element to keep your skin soft and supple during winter.  Such natural ingredients comprises of essential fatty acids required by our bodies and keep the skin moisturized the whole day.

3. Night Cream for Deep Skin Nourishment
Consider using a hydrating night cream for deep nourishment in case you have dry skin. Opt for a night creams that contain regenerating ingredients like avocado oil that would repair and penetrate deep into your skin for deep moisturization while you are asleep.

4. Wear Scarf to Protect your Face and Neck
The chilly winter breeze dries out your skin causing skin irritation and discomfort. So use a warm scarf to cover your neck, chin and cheeks. In addition, if you wear a hat or hood it would protect your forehead and head from the harsh weather.

5. Drink lots of Water
The golden rule to keep your skin hydrated is to keep your body hydrated. As reported in the Canada’s Food Guide, consume at least 30 to 45 mL (2 to 3 tbsp.) of unsaturated fats and oils everyday and drink  9 to 13 cups of water each day to keep your skin hydrated.


Most important tip is to stay happy and stress-free for a beautiful and glowing skin.

Stretch marks, are a form of skin scarring most commonly associated with pregnancy,  short-term weight gain/loss from physical activities, obesity, and puberty. Stretch marks come form when the the middle layer of the skin that maintains shape and elasticity becomes stretched more than it can tolerate. Connective skin fibers eventually break causing scarring.




Disclaimer: 1st Green Clean and our associates are in no way guaranteeing that this method will remove or cure stretch marks.


Stretch Mark Scrub Recipe

3 Tbsp white sugar
1 tsp lemon juice
¼ C whole milk

You may know that baking soda is great for absorbing odors in your refrigerator or putting out small grease fires, but there’s more to this inexpensive and readily available ingredient that you may not have heard of. From clearing drains to clearing your acne, try these 24 ways to use baking soda for a cheap and easy replacement for expensive cleaners and cosmetics.

Cleaning Clean Counter tops: Sprinkle baking soda over your entire counter top, or on stains and spills. Allow to sit for five to 15 minutes, then wipe away with a damp cloth or sponge.

Clean Brushes: Soak household and cosmetic brushes in a solution of baking soda and water to cleanse.

Kitchen Surface Cleaner: Make a paste by combining baking soda and water, then cover your stove, oven, kitchen counter and sink. Allow to sit for five to 15 minutes, then wipe or scrub away.

Clean Drains: For clogged drains, pour three quarters of a cup of baking soda down them, followed by one cup of vinegar. The two ingredients will combine and fizz, helping to clear the drain. After 15 minutes, flush with very hot to boiling water.

Laundry Booster: Pour one half cup to one full cup of baking soda into your washing machine to help clean and freshen clothing.

Clean Pots, Pans & Dishes: Remove tough stuck-on food stains by making a paste of baking soda and water. Allow to set for several minutes, then wipe or scrub away.

Freshen Carpets: Sprinkle one box of baking soda over your carpet, and allow to sit for at least one hour. Vacuum when finished.

Freshen Cat Litter Boxes: Pour baking soda into your cat litter box to help fight smells.

Air Freshener: Place an open box of baking soda, or a decorative jar filled with baking soda, anywhere you’d like to freshen the air. Place an open box in the back of your refrigerator and freezer to remove bad food smells as well.

Deodorize Trashcans: Sprinkle baking soda on the bottom of trashcans around your home to keep garbage from smelling.

Clean Children’s Toys: Avoid using dangerous chemical cleaners on your kids’ toys by soaking them in a mixture of baking soda and water instead.

Clean Your Grill: Sprinkle baking soda and water on your grill to help remove burnt on food.

Clean Silver: Fill your sink with water, then place a sheet of aluminum foil on the bottom. Sprinkle baking soda and two teaspoons of salt into the water, then place silver items on the foil. Tarnish will be removed or easily wiped off.

Cleanse Produce: Make sure your fruits and vegetables are clean before eating them by soaking them in a mixture of water and one-quarter cup of baking soda. Rinse thoroughly.

Remove Tough Odors From Skin: To get rid of smelly foods from your hands, clean with a paste of baking soda and water.
