As winter’s frost nips at our noses and the air turns crisp, the season brings cosy sweaters, festive gatherings, and Christmas’s magical sparkle. While we embrace these winter joys, our skin faces the challenges of colder temperatures and drier air. Your skin deserves exceptional care throughout the year—winter included. Discover hydration hacks & winter skincare treatments for radiant skin, all season long.
Why Winter Skincare Matters
In winter, both indoor heating and low humidity can take a toll on your skin, causing tightness, dryness, and flaking. Cold winds outdoors further strip away natural oils, leaving skin prone to redness and irritation. This is why a specialised winter skincare routine becomes crucial for maintaining a hydrated, healthy, and glowing complexion. You’ll be the envy of every twinkling Christmas light!
Our Winter Skincare Tips
- Remember to hydrate: Swap lightweight moisturisers for richer creams to protect your skin barrier. Look for products with hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and natural oils. Hydration comes from within so make sure you’re still drinking plenty of water for clear and glowing skin.
- The sun may not be there, but don’t skip sunscreen: Even in winter, UV rays can damage your skin. A daily, broad-spectrum SPF is a must, and nowadays, most makeup brands have SPS built in as standard. Our Environ RAD is an absolute must!
- Go gentle on cleansing: Use mild, non-foaming cleansers to avoid stripping your skin of its natural moisture. Something gentle like (our Environ pre-cleanse oil, Environ cleansing cream, or Elemis pro collagen cleansing balm works perfectly.
- Exfoliate with care: Regular exfoliation removes dead skin cells, but opt for gentle formulas to avoid irritation. We recommend the (Environ Vita Peptide toner which gently eats away at the dead skin cells leaving your skin vibrant and radiant.
- Invest in a humidifier for your room: Adding moisture back into the air at home can help combat dryness, try adding a few drops of essential oils to create your own at-home spa experience.
