Winter Skincare Tips
Winter Skincare
Winter is here, and with it comes cold air, low humidity, and indoor heating—the perfect storm for dry, dehydrated skin. Keeping your skin hydrated during the colder months is essential for maintaining its health, comfort, and glow.
So, how do you fight off winter dryness and keep your skin looking its best?
Let’s dive into the best hydrating products and ingredients to save your skin this season.
Key Ingredients for Winter Hydration
Hyaluronic Acid
A hydration hero, hyaluronic acid holds up to 1,000 times its weight in water, plumping your skin and locking in moisture.
Our Favorite Products: HA Collagen Boosting Serum
Ceramides
Ceramides are the building blocks of your skin’s protective barrier. They help retain moisture and prevent water loss.
Our Favorite Products: Nourish Replenishing Moisturizer
Squalane
A plant-derived oil that mimics your skin’s natural lipids, squalane is lightweight, non-greasy, and deeply hydrating.
Our Favorite Products: Restore Hydration Mask, Flora Elixir Serum
Aloe Vera
Known for its soothing properties, aloe vera is a great lightweight hydrator for irritated or sensitive skin.
Our Favorite Products: Comfort Cream, Firm Collagen Gel Mask
More Winter Hydration Tips
Be Sure to Exfoliate: Surface dead skin cells can cause skin to feel dry or flaky, and will prohibit hydrating products from penetrating the skin.
Layer Your Products: Start with lighter hydrating products like essences and serums and finish with heavier creams or oils.
Invest in a Humidifier: Adding moisture to your indoor air helps prevent your skin from drying out.
(Here’s a great option from Amazon!)
Don’t Skip SPF: Even in winter, UV rays can damage your skin, so keep using sunscreen.
Drink Plenty of Water: Hydrating from the inside out is just as important as your topical routine.
Winter doesn’t have to mean dry, dull skin. With the right products and ingredients, you can keep your skin hydrated and glowing all season long.
