1. Eat fruits and vegetables with more than 70% water content
Add proper moisturizing fruits and vegetables every day to resist drying from the inside out. The water content of vegetables and fruits generally exceeds 70%. Even if you only eat 500 grams of fruits and vegetables a day, you can get more than 300 milliliters of water. Health experts found that aloe, lettuce, cucumber, grapes, white radish, celery, grapes, pears, apples, oranges, etc. are all helpful for nourishing yin and dryness.
2. Turn down the air conditioner by 2 ℃ and increase the humidity by 5%
The research found that every 2 ℃ lower temperature will increase the humidity in the indoor air by about 5%, so your skin will get more moisture. You can kill two birds with one stone for environmental protection and heat preservation. Why not? If you feel a little cold, you can add a shawl to balance the temperature difference caused by lowering the temperature by 2 ℃.

3. Mild cleaning products and warm water
Change the cleaning supplies to a milder type. Avoid using scrub facial cleanser and replace it with a simple and mild moisturizing facial cleanser. When you go to the bathroom after cold weather, you can't help but wash your hands or face with slightly hot water, as if this is the way to keep warm and clean dirt. In fact, hot water will destroy the sebum membrane of the skin, reduce the skin's water holding capacity, and stimulate the expansion of facial microvessels, making people dry and uncomfortable. Therefore, when washing hands and faces in the office bathroom in winter, the water temperature must not be too high.
