Did you know that as the seasons change, so does our skin? The cooler months can be a challenging time for our skin as low temperatures can leave skin feeling dull, dry and dehydrated. However, not to worry, it’s actually the perfect time of year to invest in your skincare! Treatments are optimally undertaken at this time, and it’s a great opportunity to establish a well-rounded daily routine that will leave you loving your skin all year round.
Hydration
You would be surprised at just how much your skin dehydrates during the cooler months. We highly recommend investing in a good quality moisturiser for your face and body to help prevent dry and irritated skin. Your skin will need all the moisture it can get, so don’t forget to continue drinking plenty of water daily too!
For a quick burst of hydration, try Jane Iredale’s ‘Hydration Spray’ and pick one of the delicious fragrances including Lemongrass Love, D20, Pommisst or Balance.
SPF
While you may think the sun becomes harmless as we approach the cooler months, it’s important to note that SPF should always be a skincare staple. Radiation is emitted from the sun all year round, so it’s imperative to work SPF products into your daily skincare routine rain, hail or shine.
We’re loving OCosmedics Mineral Pro SPF 30 lightweight lotion, providing broad UVA/UVB protection, as well as the Jane Iredale Cosmetics ‘Dream Tint’, a tinted moisturiser with SPF 15. Both products are available to purchase in store.
Laser Hair Removal
It’s beginning to look a lot like winter wardrobe season, and that means there’s no better time to think about laser hair removal than now! As discussed in our previous blog, sun exposure should be avoided whilst undergoing a course of laser hair removal. Winter is therefore the best time to start your laser journey as you can make use of those longer layers, stylishly too!
Skin Needling
Skin needling is used to treat scarring, ageing, wrinkles, pigmentation, fine lines and reduce the appearances of stretched and enlarged pores. It is a minimally invasive treatment that we also suggest to undertake during the winter months. This is because minimal sun, exposure to low temperatures and long periods of central heating can dull and dry your skin. Plus, it’s highly recommended that sun should be avoided post treatment. Flawless skin awaits!
