Mark Lees, PhD, clinical skin therapist, compares the epidermis to a brick wall. The <bricks= are the epidermal cells, the barrier lipid complex is the mortar between the bricks. This <mortar= holds essential moisture in the skin and blocks irritants from penetrat- ing the epidermis. When the barrier lipid com- plex is damaged by extreme cold and windy weather, the skin becomes dry, chapped, sensi- tive, dehydrated and rough. Those clients with rosacea are more likely to suffer excessive red- ness as the immune system responds, due to the blood bringing immune cells to the site. Re-establishing the barrier lipids, and repairing barrier function, protecting against TEWL, (transepidermal water loss.), is what winter skin care is all about. Unprotected envi- ronmental exposure to sun, cold, wind and dry air all contribute to TEWL. According to Shelly Burns, naturopathic M.D., biotin or, D-biotin is a commonly over- looked vitamin B which is important in sup- porting healthy skin. During cold months it9s especially important to protect and prevent dry skin. Biotin has been called the dry skin cure. It can also help prevent hair loss and muscle cramps. Good food sources of biotin are eggs, legumes, nuts, brewer9s yeast and oat bran. It9s very important to avoid harsh detergent cleansers or soaps on the face as well as avoid washing too often. Use a low-foaming, or a no- foaming cleanser. I advise my clients to cleanse skin at the end of the day 4 take off the day, the make-up, the sebum, the sweat, pollution of wood smoke or other irritants.
