3 effective tricks for bad winter skin

Why do you get bad skin in the winter?

What happens when it gets colder outside is primarily that the humidity drops. This means the air contains significantly less water than in the summer. If it gets really cold, all the water disappears from the air, and the skin can actually suffer from cold damage. This applies not only to the outdoor air but also indoors, where it becomes drier.

Indoor air during a winter month can contain ten times less moisture than the skin actually needs. What happens when our skin is exposed to dry air is, among other things, that the moisture in our pores evaporates. This makes our outermost skin layer very dry. We can also develop skin problems like acne, as our skin goes into overdrive trying to rehydrate itself.

Do you have dry, dull winter skin and have tried everything without results? Try our miracle treatment.

Win the battle against winter skin

Make the skin believe it's summer

Do you want to make your complexion glow as beautifully as it does in the summer? One trick could be to trick the skin into believing it is still summer - even when it is cold and dark outside. During the summer half of the year, the skin enjoys higher humidity, warmer temperatures, and natural light. To recreate that feeling at home, you can start by surrounding yourself with green plants. It not only makes the room feel more alive but also helps to increase the humidity - something your skin will thank you for. Another simple trick is to place bowls of water in particularly dry spots, such as by the computer or on the nightstand.

Light is also important. Let in daylight whenever possible, and consider using a daylight lamp when the sun is absent. Last but not least - help your skin along with skincare that mimics the natural glow of summer. An example is our Radiant Vitamin C Serum, which contains 15% stabilized Vitamin C. It works deeply to even out the skin tone, reduces pigmentation spots, and gives the skin radiance and elasticity - just like after a sunny day.

Work layer upon layer

Just as we dress in layers to protect ourselves from the winter cold, the skin also needs a protective layer against dry indoor environments and cold winds. By building your skincare routine in multiple steps, you create a strong barrier that both prevents and improves winter-tired skin. Start with a hydrating serum to work from the inside out, follow up with a Face Cream that locks in the moisture, and preferably finish with a Face Oil that seals in all the nourishment and protects the skin from environmental stress.

Opt for products that contain Hyaluronic Acid, which attracts moisture and helps plump out dryness lines. It is a true hero ingredient for those who easily get surface dryness or lose radiance during the cold months.

Renew the skin with microneedling

Our best tip when nothing seems to work is to renew the skin. That is - get rid of the flaky, dull, and dead skin cells and help the skin repair itself. You can easily do this with an at-home treatment using a Skinroller.
