All opinions are mine alone. #WetSkinMoisturizer #CollectiveBias I’m a bath gal and always have been. In winter especially, I love to turn on the water as hot as I can stand and just soak in bubbles, salts, or bath bombs. Since I typically enjoy a winter bath right before bed, I love to soak in soothing lavender bath salts that I whip up at home with just three simple ingredients. Lavender calms and relaxes which makes it ideal for pre-bedtime rituals. For me, it’s my preferred way to unwind and melt away my worries, so I thought I’d share how I make these Soothing Lavender Bath Salts . SUPPLIES dried lavender epsom salts lavender essential oil glass container I start by adding about a quarter cup of dried lavender to my glass container . Next I add just over a cup of epsom salts. These can be found at Walmart in the pharmacy aisles. Then I drip...

Get Some Sunshine (But Only Some!) Everyone knows that too much exposure to the sun can lead to sunburn and skin damage, and it greatly increases your risk of cancer. In most cases of psoriasis, however, sunlight can help improve the condition. Apply sunscreen to areas of skin not affected by psoriasis, and spend 10-30 minutes in the sunshine every day. Speak with your doctor beforehand to make sure this sunlight treatment is the right way to go for your psoriasis relief. Epsom Salt Soak Prepare yourself a warm bath and pour in Epsom salts to exfoliate your skin, soothe itchiness, and melt away the scales. Make sure the water is warm—too hot and you can dry out your skin even more. Vinegar Soak Nix that frustrating itch with a cold bath plus a cup of apple cider vinegar . Vinegars have been used throughout history to soothe skin inflammation thanks to their disinfectant and pH-balancing properties, so this is a time-tested remedy. Talk to your doctor first to ensure that using apple c...

MORE: 9 Bad Habits That Make Your Winter Skin So Much Worse Bolster Your Barrier The skin on the hands acts like a barrier to keep moisture in, says Monica Halem, MD. If this barrier is disrupted by extreme weather conditions , sun exposure, dry air, or certain disease processes, the result can be very dry, itchy, red, cracked, and sore hands. To combat this, reestablish the skin barrier on your hands. “The skin barrier is made of three key elements—ceremide, cholesterol, and triglyceride,” Halem says. There are several creams and lotions on the market that contain all three ingredients; check the label to make sure all three are listed. “And keep in mind that a cream (oil-water mix) is much richer than a lotion (water-oil mix), and better to use for dry hands,” she says. Don't Go Near The Water Although you were probably taught to wash your hands often throughout the day, if you have chapped hands, water is not your friend. In fact, water is the worst influence for chapped hands....

Exfoliate for Softer Skin Give your skin a milk bath. The lactic acid in milk exfoliates dead skin cells and may also increase skin ’s ability to hold in moisture. Soak a washcloth in cold milk. Lay the cloth on any area of skin that is particularly dry or irritated. Leave the cloth there for five minutes, and when you rinse off the milk, do it gently, so some of the lactic acid stays on your skin. Spot Treatment To soften rough patches of skin, fill your tub with warm water and add two cups of Epsom salt, then climb in and soak for a few minutes. While your skin is still wet, you can also rub handfuls of Epsom salt on the rough areas to exfoliate the skin. You’ll be amazed at just how good your skin feels when you get out. If you have some, you can also add a few strips of dried seaweed to your bath to boost the softening effect. Veritas in Aloe Vera Apply aloe vera gel to help your dry skin heal more quickly. It contains acids that eat away dead skin cells . To obtain the gel, cut...

I'm not an athlete, I'm not a bath person, and I'm not an 82-year-old, so I've never really felt the need for Epsom salts in my life. But it turns out there are a ton of other ways to use them beyond the standard sore- muscle bath soak . So if you're in need of a little R & R in this post-Christmas-pre-New-Year's (but still stuck in your hometown) lull, here are five at-home treatments you can make using the Epsom salts lurking in the medicine cabinet at your parents' house. (Or you could go out and buy some—we like Dr. Teal's Rosemary Mint Epsom Salt Soaking Solution . ) Sunburn reliever. If you're lucky enough to be spending the holidays somewhere sunny, hopefully you listened to that motherly/ Allure voice in your head and wore tons of SPF 50. But in case you did somehow get a sunburn, Epsom salts can help inflamed skin. "I mix a couple of spoonfuls into a cup of water and use a spray bottle to mist it onto the affected area," say...
