Say Goodbye to Winter Dryness: Benefits of a Humidifier

It is finally starting to feel like fall! The mornings and evenings here in Virginia have been in the 50’s and I am loving it! Ghost and I take long walks in the morning and we are both fully in our element, lol. He no longer needs a break due to the heat and I get to bring out my fall jacket (obsessed with this one from Amazon). 

With the cold weather, comes unwanted symptoms – dry skin, a scratchy throat, congestion, and much more. I’ve held off on buying a humidifier the past few years and would borrow my mom’s when needed, but this year I couldn’t take it. My throat was so itchy and dry that I legit could not sleep.

Y’all know me at this point and ofc, I cannot settle on a basic, plain one lol. I started scouring Amazon and came across these gorgeous, tall humidifiers that are meant for the floor and larger rooms. After comparing different brands, I settled on this one. For all of it’s features, the price was great! The water tank is large, it’s quiet, comes with a remote, there is a slot of essential oils, and there are multiple mist modes. Highly recommend!

Enough about the humidifier itself, let’s get into the actual beauty benefits!

Beauty benefits

Hydrated Skin & Healthy Complexion // Humidifiers can promote a clear and glowing complexion by preventing skin from becoming overly dry and flaky or oily.

Reduced Acne Breakouts // Balanced humidity can prevent your skin from overproducing oil, reducing the likelihood of acne breakouts.

Soothe Irritated Skin // If you have sensitive or irritated skin, a humidifier can provide relief by maintaining a more comfortable environment.

Makeup Application // Makeup tends to apply more smoothly on well-hydrated skin, making it easier to achieve a flawless finish.

Hair Health // Low humidity can lead to dry and brittle hair. A humidifier helps maintain an optimal moisture level, preventing your hair from becoming overly dry and prone to breakage.

Improved Scalp Health // Proper humidity can help maintain a healthy scalp, reducing issues like dandruff and itchiness, which can impact hair health.

Improved Nail Health // Adequate moisture levels can prevent nail dryness and cracking.

Other Benefits

Relief from Dry Eyes // Humidifiers can alleviate the discomfort of dry, irritated eyes.

Throat Comfort // Adding moisture to the air can reduce throat dryness and irritation. This was the original reason for purchasing a humidifier and it immediately relieved my irritation!

Improved Respiratory Health // Humidifiers can help ease breathing, making it more comfortable for those with respiratory conditions.

Enhanced Sleep // Maintaining proper humidity levels can promote better sleep by reducing snoring and congestion.

Plant Health // I’m not a plant mom but I was shocked by this! Humidity can benefit indoor plants, helping them thrive. Maybe this is why I couldn’t keep a real plant alive >.<!
