Cold mornings, frosty air, fairy lights and… the central heating is back on 🔥❄️✨
As cosy as it feels, the run-up to Christmas and that toasty indoor air can leave your skin feeling drier, tighter and not so merry
If you already have a dry skin type, you’ll know the struggle is real all year round, but winter turns it up a notch. Central heating and cold weather pull moisture from your skin, which can mean dullness, flakiness, tightness, itchiness and those fine lines suddenly saying hello 👋
Here’s how to keep your glow through the festive season
Keep it lukewarm Hot showers might feel dreamy, but they’re a nightmare for dry skin. They strip your natural oils and steal moisture. Stick to lukewarm water and keep showers short, then apply your emollient while skin is still damp to lock in hydration
Switch your moisturiser Your summer moisturiser won’t cut it now. Winter calls for richer, thicker formulas with ceramides to help repair and protect your skin barrier. Moisturise morning and night and don’t forget your hands, they work overtime this season
Add moisture to your living space Central heating dries the air and your skin. A humidifier in your bedroom or living space can make a huge difference and bring moisture back into the air
Drink up We still need plenty of water in winter, even if you don’t feel thirsty. Keep a bottle nearby and sip throughout the day, your skin will thank you
This Christmas, make glowing skin part of the tradition 🎄✨
