Dry facial skin in winter. What remedies to choose?
Facial skin undergoes many challenges during the cold season. In winter, the humidity level in the air is lower, our skin experiences contrasts between indoor and outdoor temperatures, not to mention the effects of heating indoors or in a car. For these reasons, our skin becomes dry and flaky. Temperature differences can lead to cracks in the outer layer of the skin, making it more susceptible to dehydration. By following a few principles, we can minimize the damage done to the skin and restore its moisture and vitality.
1. We nourish the skin in the morning and moisturize at night
It is a mistake to think that dry skin should be cared for only with moisturizers. In winter, it is important to apply a nourishing cream to your face in the morning, which not only saturates the skin with essential substances, but also creates a protective layer. It prevents the skin from losing moisture. Do not forget, the cream should be applied at least 30 minutes before going outside, so that it is properly absorbed.
During the day we suggest using:
 |
GM COLLIN MATURE PERFECTION™ DAY FACE CREAM Nourishes and moisturizes Stops aging and reduces wrinkles For mature skin |
|
GM COLLIN NUTRITIVE FACE CREAM Nourishes and strengthens the moisture barrier For normal, dry and very dry skin |
|
 |
Protects, firms and restores skin balance For oily and combination skin |
Well, in the evening, when we are no longer outside, we can take care of high-quality skin hydration. We suggest trying a luxurious nourishing cream specially designed to restore damaged and flaky skin. This is Bio Phyto Normalizing Night Cream from CHRISTINA professional . Innovative ingredients and acids help the skin restore and renew.
We also offer these great tools:

2. Face masks can instantly improve skin condition
Pampering your face with masks during the winter is a must. How often you should use them depends on your skin condition. If your skin is flaky and feels constantly tight, apply a face mask twice a week. Of course, the product you choose is also important, so we suggest enriching your beauty rituals with deeply moisturizing and skin-nourishing face masks. Our recommendations:
|
HUBISLAB E+ EPIDERMA NOVA CELL SOOTHING FACE MASK Aloe vera, witch hazel and allantoin have a soothing and skin-softening effect. Suitable for acne or atopic dermatitis. |
|
Intensive, fast and long-lasting hydration Increases elasticity |
 |
 |
Intended for dull and insufficiently elastic skin. |
3. Sun protection
It is often mistakenly believed that the sun is not active during the winter and that SPF protection is not needed. On the contrary, during the cold season the ozone layer is at its thinnest, and snow and ice can reflect up to 90% of harmful sunlight. UV rays damage our skin's protective barrier, which can also lead to moisture loss. For protection, we highly recommend trying PEPPLUS MOISTURE SUN PROTECTION GEL FROM THE SUN SPF50+ . This is a very light gel-cream that provides effective skin protection from the sun. This is a cream with extremely strong PA++++ protection against UVA rays.
We also suggest trying the following products with SPF protection:
|
KEENWELL EXTRAORDINARY ECLAT EE EE cream contains powerful antioxidant, moisturizing and firming active ingredients and a new generation of skin-correcting and brightening pigments to create the appearance of flawless and naturally glowing skin. SPF20 |
|
THESERA PERFECT SUN SCREEN SUNSCREEN SPF 30 Protects against UV rays, suitable for those who spend a lot of time outdoors SPF30 |
|
|
CLINICARE COLOR CORRECTING CREAM SPF50++ Protects from UV rays, masks and moisturizes SPF50++ |
4. Sufficient water consumption
Cosmetics alone are not enough. We need to take care of ourselves from the inside as well. Sufficient water intake every day improves the condition of our body and skin. It is recommended to consume about 0.33 liters per 10 kilograms of body weight per day (for example, a woman weighing 60 kg is recommended to drink 1.98 liters of water per day).
5. Hot water is harmful
It's so nice to pamper yourself with a warm bath or shower in the winter, but we must remember that hot water can be harmful to our body. It dries out the skin and damages its protective barrier, so we can encourage moisture loss.
So, Skintypes.lt invites you to review your usual cosmetics during the winter and adapt them to the changed weather conditions or skin condition. If you don't know what care products to choose, you can always contact us and we will schedule a free consultation.
