6 Skincare Essentials to Keep you Glowing All Winter Long
Whether you’ve set a New Year’s resolution to ramp up your skin-care routine or the harsh winter weather has taken a toll on your skin and you’re looking for some new products to help combat the cold, you’ve come to the right place. We’ve rounded up some of our favorite skin-care items to keep your skin glowing and hydrated throughout the winter.
Rosebud Salve
Let’s start with something we feel confident will quickly become one of your essential skin-care items. Not only does Rosebud Salve help quickly relieve chapped lips, but it also can be used on dry knees, elbows, hands and cuticles. Each tin is only $7, so it’s a great staple to stock up on. Keep one in your purse for on-the-go moisture, one on your bedside table and one on your desk at work.
Avocado Ceramide Recovery Serum
If you’re prone to skin irritation, dryness and redness (which can worsen during winter months), Glow Recipe’s Avocado Ceramide Recovery Serum should be an immediate “add to cart.” The serum has been dermatologically tested to improve redness over time, and it’s full of hydrating and soothing plant-based ingredients such as avocado butter, avocado extract and rice milk. Plus the fun, bright packaging! Who wouldn’t want this in their bathroom cabinet?
First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream
An easy way to keep your skin smooth and hydrated throughout the cold season is to regularly use a richer moisturizer. First Aid Beauty’s Ultra Repair Cream is made with colloidal oatmeal, ceramides and shea butter — a powerful combo that will work wonders on your skin. The oatmeal gently soothes dry, sensitive skin; ceramides help strengthen the skin barrier; and shea butter protects and moisturizes the barrier.
Osea Undaria Algae Body Oil
Few things are more comforting in cold weather than treating yourself to a long, hot shower or bath. Might we suggest pairing it with a luxurious body oil with notes of lime, grapefruit and cypress to deliver the ultimate spa experience? The Osea seaweed-infused oil is ideal for all skin types and, while lightweight, it deeply hydrates and nourishes the skin, keeping it glowing and luminous even during drab winter days.
Ginzing Vitamin C and Niacinamide Eye Cream
When selecting a winter eye cream, it’s crucial to find a formula that’s rich and hydrating but also refreshing enough to wake you up on a dark winter morning. This cream from Origins is both moisturizing and brightening. It contains niacinamide to help illuminate under the eyes; vitamin C, which decreases the appearance of dark circles; and ginseng and caffeine, which help revitalize under eyes.
Shea Butter Hand Cream
Hand lotions may be overlooked when shopping for winter skin care, but not regularly moisturizing during cold winter months can quickly lead to chapped, cracked hands that are deeply uncomfortable. This bestselling hand cream from L’Occitane absorbs quickly to nourish and moisturize the skin. Dry hands are repaired in no time without leaving behind a greasy residue.
Winter may bring about cold weather, but it doesn’t need to bring dry skin with it! Establishing a regular skin-care routine and investing in some ultra-nourishing products will keep your skin glowing no matter how low the temperatures dip.
