Winter Skincare: Simple Steps to Keep Your Skin Soft and Healthy

Our skin requires special attention during the winter season. Cold winds and low temperatures can cause skin to become dry, rough, and sensitive. If you start caring for your skin early, you can avoid winter skin problems.

Moisturizing

Moisturizing is the most important thing in winter. Cold winds strip skin of moisture, leaving it dry and rough. Use a light to thick creamy moisturizer both morning and night. Especially if your skin is sensitive, choose a fragrance-free moisturizer.

Sunscreen

Sudden exposure to sunlight and UV rays in winter can also be harmful to the skin. Therefore, it's important to apply a light sunscreen even in winter. It protects the skin from aging and dark spots.

Hydrating Serum

Cold air rapidly depletes the skin's moisture. Therefore, use a hydrating serum before applying moisturizer. Serums containing hyaluronic acid or vitamin C help moisturize your skin and maintain its glow.

Lip Balm

Lips also tend to become dry in winter. To prevent this, apply lip balm regularly. Avoid products containing harmful chemicals and use lip balms with natural ingredients.

Face Oil

If your skin is very dry, applying a light face oil over moisturizer will be beneficial. It locks in moisture and softens the skin.

Regular Exfoliation

Remove dead skin with a mild scrub or chemical exfoliation 1-2 times a week. This will help moisturizers and serums work better and keep your skin hydrated.
