TIPS FOR YOUR SKIN
A small tube of cream: just as important as a warm ski suit !
- Buy a cream or lotion with a large propection factor (for example n° 10). The higher the protection rate, the smaller the chance to get burnt.
- Even when the sun is not shining smearing must take place, for also in this event the hazardous rays are lurking round the corner or at the piste.
- Think of your lips as well ! Get a good lip balsam. Lips are highly sensitive and should be well cared from.
- Bring along some vaseline! A simply but very efficient remedy. It is an unadulterated natural product and even the most sensitive skin will agree with it. Moreover, it's cheap !
- Bear in mind that the cream used during the summer holidays is not suited for winter sports holidays. The fact of the matter is that a lot of water has been put in it, and you can bet your sweet life it will freeze when you sweep down the piste quite speedily. Creams for a skiing holiday contain virtually no moist but to the contrary a lot of fat so that the skin will get extra protection against desiccation and cold. 6
- Concerning items 1to 5: Believe us, this is no sales talk. Provided you adhere to the foregoing there is little chance you'll return with a painful skin !
