As with every season, winter also has its own unique charm – as well as its own ways of stressing our skin and throwing our skin barrier out of balance. Cold gusts of wind outside in combination with the super dry heating air inside removes a lot more water from your skin than usual – also called “transepidermal water loss” – which leads to very dry patches of skin and an unstable skin barrier…
Well, what can we do about it? One trick would be to hang up damp towels to humidify your rooms, so that at least you can try to avoid dry mucous membranes. But as far as products are concerned, we also have some specialized help on hand for dry skin ?
Especially in the winter, our skin needs a softer cleanse and a lot of moisture (i.e. moisturizing serums or essences), but also something that can really lock this moisture in. This is where oils & rich, nourishing creams come into play! And so, we’ve compiled a few suggestions from the Amazingy Team for products that have been saving our skin this season – in other words, our list of Winter Skincare Faves for 2021 ☃️
A creamy cleanse followed by a moisturizing serum and a rich shea face cream… but is something missing? Yes, indeed – a mask that nourishes the skin overnight through the power of rosehip, chia & avocado, just like the Intense Overnight Mask from Votary!
This is the ultimate moisture team, including 2 absolute favorites of our Amazingy Community: Josh Rosebrook’s Advanced Hydration Mask very quickly earned the title “Winter Skin Savior” – and Whamisa’s Organic Flowers Deep Rich Toner is an all-year-round favorite that can give your winter skin the extra moisture kick it needs ♡
This quartet plays a nourishing & soothing routine for damaged skin, starting with the softest cleanse from le savon lune – the signature, luxurious, soap-free cleansing bar from ARgENTUM. And the Instant Kalmer Serum from Pai Skincare is not only fragrance-free, but also soothes the skin with Shisandra – an anti-inflammatory antioxidant that is also in Pai’s latest eye serum launch, the System D Cooling Eye Serum ☆
