PREPARING YOUR SKIN FOR WINTER: ESSENTIAL TIPS FOR HEALTHY, RADIANT SKIN
As the temperature drops and winter makes its grand appearance, it’s time to give our skincare routines a seasonal update. For many of us, the change in weather brings not just a change in our wardrobe but also in how our skin behaves. Cold air, indoor heating, and layered clothing can all take a toll, leading to dryness, itchiness, and discomfort.
At Eco Ems Gifts, we’re passionate about helping you maintain healthy, glowing skin all winter with our eco-friendly, vegan-friendly, and low-tox skincare. Let me share some essential winter skincare tips to keep your skin happy and healthy over the winter season.
How Can I Keep My Skin Looking Good in Winter?
- Hydrate from Within: While you might not feel as thirsty in colder weather, drinking 2-3 litres of water daily is crucial. This helps maintain your skin’s moisture levels. For extra hydration, try sipping on hot water with lemon and honey, also great for a sore throat.
- Adjust Your Shower Habits: Hot showers can be tempting but may strip your skin of essential moisture. Lower the water temperature and reduce shower time to keep your skin from drying out.
- Opt for Natural Ingredients: Choose products with natural ingredients and avoid harsh chemicals. Look for skincare items that include vegan squalene—a fantastic ingredient that boosts hydration and helps reduce fine lines.
- Exfoliate Gently: Regular exfoliation removes dead skin cells and promotes new skin growth. Use a gentle exfoliant like sugar to avoid irritating your skin. Dry brushing is also a great way to increase circulation and keep your skin smooth.
- Lock in Moisture: A moisturiser with shea butter is ideal for winter. Shea butter’s high concentration of fatty acids provides deep hydration and is suitable for all skin types. For an eco-friendly option, try our body lotion bars.
What Is the Best Skin Care for Winter?
The best winter skincare involves a combination of hydration, gentle exfoliation, and natural, nourishing ingredients. Products like our moisturising bath bombs, rich face creams, and shampoo and conditioner bars are formulated to address the challenges of winter skin while aligning with our commitment to eco-friendly, vegan-friendly, and low-tox skincare.
