How does winter weather affect my skin?
Winter weather can be harsh on your skin, causing it to become dry, flaky, and irritated. Cold temperatures, low humidity, and indoor heating can all contribute to skin problems during the winter months. In this article, we will discuss in detail how winter weather affects your skin and what you can do to support it.
  1. Dryness
During the winter months, the air tends to be drier than during other times of the year. This can cause your skin to become dry, tight, and itchy. To combat dryness, it's important to use a rich, emollient moisturizer on your face and body. Look for products that contain ingredients such as glycerin, hyaluronic acid, or shea butter, which help to hydrate and soothe the skin.
  1. Flakiness
Cold weather can also cause the skin to become flaky and rough. This is often due to a buildup of dead skin cells, which can clog pores and make it difficult for moisturizers to penetrate the skin. To combat flakiness, it's important to exfoliate regularly. Look for gentle exfoliants that contain ingredients like alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) or beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs), which help to dissolve dead skin cells without causing irritation.
  1. Redness and Irritation
Winter weather can also cause redness and irritation on the skin, particularly if you have sensitive skin. This is often due to a combination of cold temperatures, dry air, and wind. To combat redness and irritation, it's important to use gentle, fragrance-free skincare products that are designed for sensitive skin. Look for products that contain soothing ingredients like aloe vera, chamomile, or oatmeal.
  1. Chapped Lips
Chapped lips are a common problem during the winter months, particularly if you spend a lot of time outdoors. Cold temperatures and wind can cause your lips to become dry, cracked, and painful. To combat chapped lips, it's important to use a moisturizing lip balm that contains ingredients like beeswax, shea butter, or coconut oil. Apply lip balm regularly throughout the day to keep your lips hydrated and protected.
  1. Skincare Changes
To support your skin during the winter months, it's important to make some changes to your skincare routine. Here are some tips:
  • Use a humidifier: A humidifier can help to add moisture to the air in your home, which can help to combat dryness and flakiness.
  • Avoid hot showers: Hot water can strip your skin of its natural oils, which can make it more prone to dryness and irritation. Stick to lukewarm water instead.
  • Protect your skin: When you're outdoors, be sure to wear a hat, scarf, and gloves to protect your skin from the cold and wind.
  • Drink plenty of water: Drinking water can help to keep your skin hydrated from the inside out.
In conclusion, winter weather can be tough on your skin, but with the right skincare routine, you can keep your skin looking and feeling healthy. Remember to moisturize regularly, exfoliate gently, and use gentle, fragrance-free products that are designed for sensitive skin. By making these changes, you can keep your skin looking and feeling its best, even during the coldest months of the year.

Retinol Moisturizer Retinol Moisturizer
Retinol Moisturizer $67.00
Introducing our potent and uniquely formulated moisturizer that features the number one dermatologist recommended anti-aging ingredient: Retinol. Retinol is renowned for its remarkable ability to reduce the visibility of fine lines and deep wrinkles, particularly in collagen-depleted skin. Furthermore, it acts as a robust antioxidant, effectively combating free-radical damage and preventing accelerated skin aging. Consistent use of this moisturizer brings about a range of benefits, including minimized pores, managed blemishes and eczema, and a brighter, more even-toned complexion. To complement this incredible ingredient, we've added the hydrating prowess of vegan Hyaluronic Acid and Jojoba Oil. The end result? Skin that appears visibly younger and revitalized!   Ingredients:  Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice (Organic Aloe), Aqua (Water), Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil (Organic Sunflower), Isopropyl Palmitate, Glyceryl Stearate, Cetyl Alcohol, Retinol (2.5%), Cassia Angustifolia Seed Polysaccharide (Plant Based Hyaluronic Acid), Stearic Acid, Glycerin (Kosher Vegetable), Simondsia Chinensis Seed (Organic Jojoba) Oil, Butyrospermum Parkii Butter (Shea), Panthenol (Vitamin B5), Tocopherol Acetate (Vitamin E), Propolis Extract, Centella Asiatica (Organic Gotu Kola) Extract, Equisetum Arvense (Horsetail) Extract, Taraxacum Officinale (Dandelion) Extract, Geranium Maculatum (Wild Geranium) Extract, Camelia Sinensis (Green Tea) Extract, Xanthan Gum, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin.   How to Use: After cleansing, toning and serum, gently apply the moisturizer in a light circular motion to your face, neck, and décolleté. Take care to avoid direct contact with your eyes. For best results, allow some time for the moisturizer to fully absorb before applying makeup. Important: Please use this product only as directed. Avoid contact with your eyes, and if any irritation persists, discontinue use and consult a physician. It is advisable to protect areas where Retinol has been applied by applying sunscreen before sun exposure. Remember that the frequency and duration of product contact with the skin should be limited. The frequency of use for a 2.5% retinol  moisturizer can vary depending on your skin's tolerance and sensitivity to the product. It is generally recommended to start with a lower frequency and gradually increase as your skin adjusts. Here's a suggested guideline: Start with once or twice a week: Begin by applying the retinol moisturizer once or twice a week. This allows your skin to acclimate to the retinol and minimize the risk of potential irritation. Monitor your skin's reaction: Pay attention to how your skin responds. If you experience any signs of irritation, such as redness, dryness, or flaking, reduce the frequency of use. Gradually increase usage: After a couple of weeks, if your skin tolerates the product well, you can gradually increase the frequency of application. Move to every other day, and eventually, to daily use. Listen to your skin: Throughout the process, closely monitor your skin's reaction and adjust the frequency accordingly. Every individual's skin is unique, so it's important to find the right balance that works for you.
