Blog Babble: A Good Lotion Can Make A Big Difference

When the weather turns cold but you still venture out to the course for that Saturday morning round, the dry winter air will make your face freeze and your skin dry out in just a few holes. While you can always go warm up later and inhale a few gallons of water to help remedy the situation, preventing it is an even better way to enjoy your round of winter golf. Just like sunscreen in the summer months, a good moisturizer is a must to carry in the bag for those frosty days in the fall and winter. There are plenty of options out there, but staying with a natural solution like this one, from Plant Therapy, is perfect for most bags.

A perfect blend of tea tree and evening primrose oils protects your skin from outside irritants and locks moisture into the skin. This keeps your skin softer and reduces dryness in even the toughest conditions. To maximize your protection, you can apply the lotion to any area where your skin will exposed to the elements during your round. From there, apply to your face again before teeing off. Make sure to bring a spare towel to dry your hands on as the lotion will take some time to absorb, and swinging a club with slick hands will never result in a good shot. From there, Reapply the lotion as needed throughout the round to keep your skin in top shape. Don’t forget to rub the excess into your hands, which are also exposed throughout the round as well.

Taking care of your skin during the winter is just as important as taking care of it during the summer months. Using a quality lotion will only cost you a few dollars a month, but the damage that your skin can endure during a round of golf can last much, much longer. Be safe and use a good lotion during the winter and a great sunscreen during the summer.
