Fall/Winter Routine
With the arrival of winter, facial skin can become dry, tight, and red due to the extreme cold. Additionally, the contrast between cold outdoor temperatures and indoor heating can accelerate moisture loss, leaving the skin more vulnerable. Pampering and protecting it during the cold months is essential for its health and comfort.

1Cleanse
An appropriate cleansing routine not only improves the appearance of your skin, but also shields it from the cold and dryness caused by heating. Daily cleansing is essential for keeping the skin in optimal condition during the winter. Choose gentle formulas free of harsh agents that remove impurities while maintaining the skin's natural hydration. Micellar solution is an excellent option because it cleanses gently while preserving the skin barrier.
Incorporate gentle exfoliation once a week to remove dead cells, stimulate cell renewal, and improve the skin's brightness and softness. This will allow subsequent products in your routine to be better absorbed, restoring the skin's brightness and softness.
2Treat
Cold and sudden temperature changes can weaken the skin, reducing its ability to retain moisture and making it more vulnerable. To restore its balance and strengthen its protective barrier, use a serum containing highly hydrating and revitalizing active ingredients.
Hyaluronic acid is important in this process because it helps retain moisture in the skin, resulting in deep and long-lasting hydration that reduces dryness and tightness. Betaine strengthens the barrier function, protecting the skin from dehydration, while red ginseng, known for its energizing and antioxidant properties, revitalizes the skin, giving it a brighter and healthier appearance.
Applying a serum containing these active ingredients in the morning and evening will help the skin regain its flexibility, freshness, and comfort, preparing it to adapt to winter changes more easily.
3Care
The choice of facial cream is critical at this time of year, when the skin's natural barrier is weakened. During the colder months, it is generally recommended to switch to creams with a richer, more enveloping texture that nourish and comfort the skin. A facial cream rich in ceramides, shea butter, or camellia oil will help to strengthen the skin barrier, preventing water loss and protecting it from external stressors like cold and wind. Applying a cream containing some of these active ingredients in the morning and evening will keep your skin hydrated, protected, and looking healthy throughout the winter season.
4Protect
Making sun protection a daily habit will result in strong, luminous, and protected skin all winter long. Even at low temperatures, UV exposure remains one of the leading causes of premature aging and hyperpigmentation. Additionally, the combination of cold, wind, and heat can weaken the skin's barrier, making it more susceptible to irritation and dryness.
To protect the skin from these elements, apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen every day, even when the sky is cloudy. Choose formulas rich in hydrating and antioxidant ingredients, which, in addition to providing protection, help keep the skin flexible and resilient to environmental stressors.
Tinted sunscreens or SPF 50+ CC Creams are excellent options for adding comfort while unifying the skin tone, as they combine protection, hydration, and light coverage to provide a natural and healthy finish.
