The climate and our skin

After another sensational summer on the Gold Coast, the cooler temperatures and changing humidity are starting to wreak havoc on our skin. As the winter months fast approach the cooler and drier conditions tend to dry out the skin.

A dehydrated skin actually accentuates lines and wrinkles and makes us look older.

Hydration is the answer

Worse still, asking for help is seen as somewhat weak.” Read about the 4 signs that you are burnt out as a mum
