A Guide to Winter Skin
Skin feeling parched and in need of luxurious nourishment? Learn how to combat Winter skin below.
During the Winter months, our complexion can feel dry, sensitised and irritated. With a shift in environmental conditions, our skin's natural barrier is compromised, leaving it exposed to dryness and dehydration, and prone to irritation—making it essential to prioritise protection and hydration for healthy, radiant skin throughout the season.
What causes Winter Skin?
In the cooler months, as temperatures drop, the air's moisture content changes. Additionally, the use of artificial heating further reduces moisture levels, causing our skin to become dry, dehydrated and irritated.
What are the key skin challenges people can experience in the Winter months?
During Winter, common skin changes include dryness, sensitivity and dullness, which can manifest as flakiness, dehydration and a lacklustre appearance. Additionally, changes to the skin's barrier often results in redness and irritation.
Why is it important to wear SPF in Winter?
Throughout the year, UV radiation, infrared heat and visible light are consistently present, causing sun damage that extends beyond sunburn and exacerbates various skin conditions. #3 The Tinted Serum SPF50+ is a non-negotiable daily Formulation, offering essential solar and environmental protection while fortifying the skin's integrity and soothing irritation.
How can we combat dullness during the cooler months?
To combat dullness during the cooler months, consider incorporating a water and oil-based Vitamin C Formulation, such as that found in #2 The Light Crème. This will nourish and support the skin with protective and energising antioxidants. When layered with SPF Protection daily, it visibly brightens the skin's complexion while maintaining radiance.
What are the key actives that can assist generating hydration, nourishment and barrier repair to the skin?
Essential Ceramides and Lipids work together to replenish the skin’s intercellular matrix and natural lipid barrier reserves. This fortifies skin barrier function and integrity, moisturises the skin and encourages repair processes.
