While it's a holiday season for everyone around you, it's the winter season for your skin where it requires you to put the maximum amount of care and attention on it. You might not have a lot of time to pamper your skin the reason why today Dr. Nirupama Parwanda, Dermatologist & Founder of Zolie Skin Clinic, Greater Kailash, New Delhi brought you some easy anti-aging tips that could help you freeze the time.
Olive oil
Dry skin and winters go hand in hand. One of the most common reasons for fine lines and wrinkles is dry skin. Thus, investing in a good moisturizer is a must. Now you can choose any good moisturizer for your face when you go out but it is equally important to choose something great for before you head to bed. Olive oil will not only help you soften those fine lines but its antioxidant properties will help you heal your skin.
Vitamin C serum
