Neglecting skincare during the winters is like abusing your skin. No, I am honest about this, maybe brutal, but definitely honest.The winter weather, the dry air, and the harsh sunlight (that we like a lot to soak in during this chilly weather) have a severe effect on our skin. These effects are so evident that it is highly impossible to overlook them. Dry skin, flaky skin, etc are quite evident, aren’t they? Not overlooking means going extra with the winter skincare routine.
To be honest, if you still do not care about your skin during the winters, I am sorry but you are doing totally wrong. It is during this season that our skin needs the most care. I have curated a full proof winter skincare routine for different skin types from morning to night for you all in this blog.
Don’t worry, it is not strenuous and would not take enough of your time or energy.
Dry And Sensitive Skin
For people having dry and sensitive skin, it is the toughest during the winters. Your skin doesn’t quite fit in the weather. The dry air is your worst enemy and it doesn’t let your skin breathe properly during this weather. Hence, a little more effort goes into your case. But, you got to do what you got to do.
Morning Winter Skincare Routine
Start with Moisturising Your Face
Your morning ritual of winter skincare routine begins with moisturising your face. You can use any hydrating serum or moisturiser to pamper your skin. Your skin needs enough nourishment in the form of long-lasting moisture hence this is a crucial step. Excusing this step would lead to dry flaky skin or dry cells all over your face.
2. Dampen With Nourishing Oil
This step does the same job as the previous one. But, this would keep your face moisturised in the long run. You need continuous nourishment on your face so that dry air doesn’t make your face even drier. You can use nourishing plant-based oil or any enriching face oil for this purpose.
3. Sunscreen Time
Not only summers, but you should always apply sunscreen on your skin before going out. During the winters, we expose our skin to the sun a lot because we tend to like the winter sun on our faces. But, this doesn’t mean that your skin would not be hampered because of it. So, make sure to include this in your winter skincare routine.
