You've spent all summer taking care to look splendid, hydrating, toning and protecting your face. Do not neglect in winter! Each season has its care, and now you are going to propose some beauty tips to take care of your skin at this time.

With the cold are favoured some physiological processes that increase the loss of radiance and vitality of the skin. Within weeks, the skin will no longer have that tan colour to change it paler. But this need not be a reason for not showing your best image: if you care for your skin and apply a few basic treatments can be more beautiful than ever. We leave these simple tips:

1. Know your skin type.
Climatic factors affect us differently depending on your skin type. It is essential to know to see what products we use.

With the cold and wind, dry skin tends to dry easily and needs to be further supplemented in some moisturizing cream with nourishing properties.

Sensitive skin is suffering the most these days: temperature changes, cold, heat and even friction with certain pieces of clothing particularly affect this type of skin, being common the appearance of redness and itching. Therefore, the hydration has to be even greater than we would use in other types of skin.

Normal or oily skin is the most resilient adverse weather, as its fatty nature assures greater protection, but that does not mean we should neglect their care.

2. Cleanse, exfoliate and nourish your face regularly.
These are the basic steps that should always be done in our face, and especially in this time of year.

2.1 Clean: We must remember that in winter when the pollution index is high, being the face of the body part exposed. For this reason, it is more necessary than ever to carry out a deep facial cleansing before applying any product to the skin by applying a Cleansing Milk and Tonic subsequently oily and combination skin or for dry and normal.

Exfoliate 2.2: The skin in the winter gets less nutrients and oxygen, which causes the accumulation of dead cells. We must carry out a gentle exfoliation once a week or if you have sensitive skin, once every 15 days, recommending a Scrub Gel possibly containing Aloe Vera, and is rich in nutritive compounds and regenerating skin .

2.3 Nurture: Once all the above steps have the skin ready to take advantage of all the nutrients needed to regain the lost vitality and achieve a smooth and elastic skin. Use nourishing creams with extracts of honey, royal jelly, combined occasionally with some type of face mask for a perfect result.

3. Always keep adequate hydration.
The moisturizer should be your best companion during this time of year, since the face is one of the body parts most exposed. Do not be afraid to apply it several times a day if the skin upon request. Our beauty routine cannot be always the same; you have to vary depending on the circumstances and the needs of our skin type.

4. Apply sunscreen creams.
Although it seems that during this time of year we say goodbye to the sun, we must not lose sight of the sunscreen, because if we want a smooth, unblemished skin should be protected from the harmful effects of the winter sun. Try to buy creams and makeup with a proper sun protection factor.

Remember that this can also be a good time to remove the spots you have been accumulated in your skin throughout the year while the youngest keep applying creams fighting uniform tone spots.

5. Protect your lips.
They are one of the most prominent and beautiful your face. Do not ever wet your lips with your tongue because you will only get to spoil and increasingly drying. Use a lip balm that moisturizes Regenerating and protect lips from sun, wind or cold, as well as hydrate form a protective film that protects them.

6. Other tips that can also help:
- Keep a safe temperature in your home and work. It's cold, but too much heat can cause the skin to dry. We must encourage the proper humidity.

- Keep the humidity. No need to purchase an expensive humidifier may be sufficient to put a glass of water on the stove or radiator on 2 or 3 places of the house.

- Do not abuse hot baths. Bathing in very hot water causes it to remove the skin's natural lipids that hold moisture and hydration. A reasonable choice is to bathe in warm water and apply a few drops of essential oils. Do not underestimate the power of Aromatherapy.

- Stop smoking! This is a good time to quit. The snuff generates free radicals that have negative effects on our skin such as thinning of the dermis and epidermis, making your skin to age prematurely. If this alone does not convince you, think also you will save good money.

- And finally, watch your diet. When temperatures drop, it should also protect the body from the cold with a good diet rich in vitamins and minerals, using their own food this season. Vegetables and fruits contain nutrients that provide natural benefits to the body that no other product can match. If the body is healthy on the inside, the external image that follows will also be good. And try not to abuse in the typical meals of these days!

Cellulite. Causes and solutions.


Cellulite is a problem that affects in varying degrees to almost 80% of women and that can transcend beyond the merely aesthetic.

Its origin is caused by the breakdown of tissue structure beneath the surface of the skin and accumulate fat in certain areas of the body and form nodules of fat which is manifested by the appearance of the "orange peel".

There are multiple classifications of the different stages where you can find cellulite, coinciding most studies divided into four grades of severity:

• In first grade, cellulite is imperceptible to the naked eye, initiating a process of degeneration of the cells by breaking the integrity of the lymphatic and venous microcirculation, being affected the capillary network of the upper skin. Fat cells in the hypodermis increase in size, due to obstruction by lipids.

• In second grade, begins a process of deterioration more intense, as it hampers the exchange of nutrients between fat cells and vessels, and fat cells cannot remove their waste or waste products into the circulation. Begins to appear the "orange peel"

• In the third degree, metabolism is reduced. It decreases protein synthesis and as a result the skin is thinner. Starts reticular formation of a protein around the cell, creating deposits of lumpy tissue. The "orange peel" is becoming more visible, sometimes pain is located in the affected area.

• In fourth grade, the reticular layer of protein begins to harden, forming nodules in the dermis macro highly visible to the naked eye and hard to the touch. It can be seen a decrease in temperature in the affected areas from the rest of the body. You can be pain in the area even without contact.

There are several causes that can cause the appearance of cellulite. Some are genetic or hereditary making some people more likely to be affected, but there are others such as sedentary lifestyle, excessive caloric diets, wearing clothes too tight or preventing proper blood circulation, fluid accumulation and thus the abnormal increase of fat molecules, or snuff or alcohol consumption increases the toxins in the body over which we can indeed act.

Our recommendation from Aroma da Terra London

Adopt a few simple healthy habits to attack cellulite both from within and from outside.

It is essential that the skin properly hydrated to avoid water retention and get better debugging and transit of fat. Therefore it is important the regular intake of at least two litres of water will help keep skin smooth and free of unsightly cellulite. The same goes for food.

Also we make a suitable exercise for toning the area if possible avoiding a sedentary lifestyle. Small gestures like going to work on foot or taking the stairs instead of elevators can be very helpful. Finally, it is advisable to use a massage and a slimming steadily to stimulate and improve blood circulation as a way of standardizing the fat cells.

We recommend that before cellulite becomes a serious problem, start to apply both day and night and in all affected areas Anti Cellulite Cream by Aroma de Terra and continuous circular movements, thereby eliminating cellulite from the inside because it contains plant substances that act as highly penetrant absorption vector of the active ingredients. Thereby help to drain and discard the fat nodules that make up the "orange peel".

Through its continued use is achieved by reducing the volume, also battling sagging tissues.
