A few reasons why we should give our skin some extra love and attention while living in Colorado. As a native, I’ve observed firsthand just how much our dry, sunny, high-altitude climate affects the skin. Don’t worry, high altitude skincare can be easy with just a few tricks and LOTS of moisture.
Did you know…
for every 1000-foot increase in elevation, UV levels raise between 10-20%
reflection from the snow increases UV intensity by 85%
skin begins to lose moisture when the humidity drops below 60% (average humidity in Denver is under 45!)
the body becomes more dehydrated in colder weather as it tries to keep itself warm
OTM Skin's customized skincare services can help lock moisture into your Colorado skincare routine.
