January is the coldest month of the year, and with the cold comes the dreaded dry, sensitive skin. However, it doesn’t have to be this way! With proper care, your skin can stay radiant, even in the coldest months of the year. The key is to adjust your skincare routine to provide the nourishment and protection your skin needs to stay soft, smooth, and glowing. Here’s how to modify your routine to save your skin this winter:
Hydrate with a thicker moisturizer
In the winter, your skin needs extra moisture to combat dryness. Choose a moisturizer that goes beyond just hydrating the surface and provides deeper nourishment. Opt for thicker formulas, particularly those containing ceramides, which help lock in moisture and support your skin's natural barrier. Thicker moisturizers will supply more hydration for your skin and help it replenish its natural glow.
Try our Peptide Nourishing Cream to boost hydration and fight signs of aging with ingredients such as ceramides, green tea extract, and squalene, which are incredible for healing the skin after being exposed to cold and dry weather!
With a ceramide and peptide complex, our Restorative Night Cream is another perfect option for colder weather. This formula penetrates deeper to quench the most dehydrated skin while revving up collagen production for a more youthful appearance.
Say hello to HA-packed products
Hyaluronic Acid, better known as HA, is a serious moisture magnet. Naturally occurring in our bodies, this powerhouse ingredient has an exceptional ability to bind and hold water molecules, which helps keep the skin hydrated and plump. Look for products containing HA to soothe and hydrate your skin.
Our Chlorophyll Correction Serum is packed with HA and has a high-quality botanical formula with a blend of antioxidants that work together to brighten your complexion and reduce redness and irritation, while helping to protect against free radical damage from environmental stressors.
Don’t forget SPF
Even though it’s cold out, the sun is still shining and it’s critical to protect your skin from sun damage. The last thing you want on top of the stress your skin is facing from the cold is a sunburn! Be sure to keep applying protective SPF throughout the winter season.
For sun protection during the winter, we recommend our HydraGlow SPF, which comes in both Dewy and Matte options. Its lightweight, tinted formula shields against harmful UV rays with SPF 50, deeply hydrates, and gives your skin a fresh glow.
By making some slight changes to your skincare routine, you can keep your skin radiant and glowing all season long. Say bye-bye to dryness and irritation for the rest of the winter!
