DO YOU FIND OVER WINTER YOUR GREAT SKIN DAYS ARE FEW AND FAR BETWEEN?

Don’t worry you’re not alone, we are all experiencing it too! It’s that time of year again where the season is changing and so too is your skin, but it doesn’t have to rain on your parade.

Our Dermal Clinician’s Lana & Yasmine, aka skin experts, have over 40 years experience and are all too familiar with how changes in the weather can wreak havoc on your skin. Throughout Winter our skin experiences many temperature fluctuations with chilly weather outdoors, overheating indoors and low humidity levels. Unfortunately, this all leads to less oil production and dehydration within the skin, causing a dry, sensitive and reddened complexion. But never fear, relief is here with our high performance skincare and skin secrets to banish those Winter blues and love your skin this season.

Dull Skin? Dry Skin? Rough and Flaky Skin?…You Have Winter Skin.

Over the harsh winter months your skin becomes drier than normal, creating textural changes and dry, flakey patches that even the best makeup can’t hide. You’ll find your serums don’t absorb properly and nothing seems to quench the dryness your skin is experiencing. Then you look in the mirror and yes, your skin looks more wrinkled! It’s not an illusion, those wrinkles are actually worse due to your skin’s dry, dull and rough texture. Beware… dry skin if left untreated often leads to irritation, inflammation and sensitivity. Yay for winter skin!

During Winter, it is vital to switch up your skincare routine, as the texture and weight of the skincare products your skin loved in Summer and Autumn do not have enough nourishing and hydrating ingredients to offer the level of protection your skin needs throughout Winter.

We have the right skincare products and skin secrets that will help rescue your dry winter skin to rediscover a glowing, healthy complexion.

CLEANSE
As a general rule switch out foaming and gel cleansers for oil or milk cleansers to avoid stripping your skin. We love using Purity Solution and Bio Cleansing Oil.

EXFOLIATE
Avoid aggravating scrubs and opt instead for hydrating exfoliants that gently buff and polish your flaky skin smooth. We love Superfruit Enzymes and Defy.

SERUM
Just as you layer up clothing in winter, the same goes for your serums. Layering serums high in niacinamide, vitamin C and hyaluronic acid will feed your skin the protective antioxidants it craves. We love Hydra-C Mist layered with Extreme B 17, Extreme C 20 and Hyaluronic Acid Boosting Serum.

MOISTURISE
Finally lock everything in with a protective moisturiser, rich in essential fatty acids. In order from light to heavy weight, we love Phytostat 9, Skin Hydration Complex , Cell Therapy, Plasma Repair and Lip Peptide Therapy for the ultimate in lip protection. For an overnight moisture boost our go-to is Restore Moisture-Rich Mask.
