Conquering Winter Dryness: Essential Tips
- Add Layers:
Consider layering your skincare products to intentionally flood the skin with hydration and prevent moisture loss. Adding layers of moisture to your skin care routine will help protect your face from winter’s chill. That’s because indoor heat, dry air, and steamy showers are responsible for some of this season’s biggest skincare complaints: dry, flaky, and/or cracked texture, itching and sensitivity, and even that tight feeling can all be triggered by moisture loss. Aloisia Beauty's Anti-aging & Brightening Collection provides a skin-enriching and transformative routine that includes BALANCE Moisturizing Toner, RENEW Concentrated Serum, LIGHT HYDRATION Emulsion, REVITALIZE Eye Cream, and ULTRA-RICH Moisture Cream to restore a healthy, ageless, radiant glow. Each product works to great individually, but when layered, they create a gentle yet ultra-effective routine you can count on to provide intense hydration, prevent moisture loss and battle the harsh effects of winter.
- Gentle Double Cleansing:
Preserve your skin's natural oils with mild, fragrance-free cleansers. During winter, avoid harsh or exfoliating cleansers. Instead, elevate your cleansing routine with double cleansing, a two-step process that deeply cleanses your skin without stripping away its natural oils.
Double cleansing helps you make the most of your skin care routine by deeply cleaning your skin, eliminating grime that sits on top of your skin, along with makeup, excess oil, and dead skin. If you live in a polluted climate or wear makeup every day, double cleansing is for you.
Here's how to double cleanse with Aloisia Beauty NOURISH & REFRESH Cleansing Duo:
- Start with an oil-based cleanser. Our NOURISH Oil Cleanser gently removes make-up, sebum, sunscreen, and other oil-based residue.
- Follow with a water-based cleanser. The REFRESH Jade Purifying Cleanser is applied after going in for a deeper cleanse and removes sweat, dirt, and environmental pollutants that are water-based.
- Lip Protection:
Shield your lips from the winter breeze with nourishing lip care products. When choosing a lip balm, it's essential to be mindful of the ingredients to ensure they contribute to the health and hydration of your lips. Consider ingredients like beeswax, shea butter, coconut oil, or cocoa butter.
- Glove Up:
Your hands are exposed to the dry winter air, so glove up! Aloisia Beauty embraces holistic skincare, addressing every part of your body exposed to winter elements. Nighttime Treatment: For an intensive treatment, generously apply argan oil to your hands before bedtime. Slip on a pair of cotton gloves to allow the oil to deeply penetrate and hydrate your skin overnight.
- Hydration from Within:
Internal hydration is crucial. Drink plenty of water to keep your skin plump and healthy from the inside out.
