WINTER SKIN CARE TIPS FOR ALL SKIN TYPES
written by Roma Singh
As much as we love the nippy winters, they can have some adverse effects on one’s skin. During this season, dry skin does not secrete enough sebum (oil) due to low temperatures, which causes the hydration levels in the skin to fall causing it to itch. The solution is a rich, creamy moisturiser that will lend you optimum hydration. To bust a common myth, oily skin needs just as much moisturising as dry skin because the harsh winds and dip in temperatures can cause excess production of sebum, which causes breakouts. Therefore, those with oily skin need hydration too in order to prevent the skin from producing more oil but it has to be a mild moisturiser that doesn’t end up being greasy on their skin. Do you dread the winter season for the skin woes it brings with it? Try our tips!

What: Opt for lukewarm showers
Who is it for: For skin that feels extremely itchy and stiff during this season.
Why: You might crave hot showers during this season but the ideal thing to do is taking shorter baths or using lukewarm water in the shower. This is because hot water baths break down lipid barriers in your skin, which leads to moisture loss. So we suggest you keep your bath short and warm, especially for those with extremely dry and stiff skin in the winters.
