Winter protection for the skin - tips and tricks for the cold season

As the days shorten and temperatures drop, winter can be a wonderful time of year. However, it can also be a stressful time for the skin, as the cold air and dry heating air can cause our skin to dry out, crack and ache. In this post, we'll share some tips and tricks to protect your skin through the winter.

Moisturising products
In winter, the change from cold air outside to dry heated air inside can dry out our skin. It is therefore important to look for moisturising products such as creams and lotions. Look for products with rich formulas to moisturise and protect your skin.

Apply a moisturising or nourishing mask often, your skin will thank you for it. And don't forget good UV protection, even in winter.

Hand cream is a must
As the hands are most exposed to the cold, they need special attention and care. When you are out and about, wear gloves to protect your hands from the cold. Also apply hand cream regularly to keep your hands soft and supple.

Lip care
The lips are one of the most sensitive parts of the body and tend to dry out very quickly in winter. You can protect your lips from drying out with a lip balm or lip cream. Apply the balm or cream regularly to ensure that your lips remain supple.

Don't shower too long and hot
We all like a relaxing, warm shower on a cold winter evening. But showering too long or too hot can dry out your skin. Try to limit your showers to less than 10 minutes and use warm water instead of hot water.

Make sure you eat a healthy diet
A healthy diet can benefit not only your body but also your skin. In winter, you should pay particular attention to foods that are rich in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and omega fatty acids. Eat plenty of fruit and vegetables to keep your skin healthy.

Remember that a healthy skincare routine should not depend on the season. Whether it's summer or winter, you should always make sure that your skin is well cared for.
