Winter can be hard on our precious skin

Here are a few tips to help keep your skin looking and feeling healthy during the harsh winter months ahead: 

Switch to a more nourishing cream cleanser which will be gentler on your skin. 

You do still need to exfoliate during the winter months.  

Tip: Switch to a more gentle exfoliator instead of a harsh scrub and exfoliate less frequently to avoid irritating the skin because by removing dead skin cells, serums and hydrating moisturisers will penetrate better and be more effective. 

Use a more hydrating moisturiser to help protect your skin from extreme temperature changes.

Keep applying SPF because UV rays are still present. 

Apply a broad spectrum sunscreen, even on cloudy winter days.

Keep wearing sunglasses to protect your eyes from ever present UV to prevent squinting and help reduce your chances of developing premature wrinkles. 

Continue to use eye creams.  Delicate skin around our eyes can quickly become irritated, sore and dry when exposed to the harsh winter elements. 

Don’t forget to keep your lips moisturised regularly to prevent unpleasant chapping and to keep your lips looking smooth and hydrated.
