Winter Skincare Products
Cleanser
First and foremost, a summer cleanser should not be your winter cleanser. Switch to something that is creamier to cleanse with, without damaging your skin’s protective barrier.
For sensitive skin: La Roche Posay Toleriane Dermo-Cleanser
For oily/combination skin: The Body Shop Tea Tree Skin Clearing Facial Wash

Hydration is key for optimizing the skin’s plumpness, so again just like with your cleanser, you may want to switch up your moisturizer for something creamier. If your skin is on the oily side, you may be able to use the same fresh moisturizing gel you used in the summer, but if your skin is on the dry end of the spectrum, look for creams with fatty acids to help prevent water loss.
For sensitive skin: Biotherm Sensitive Emulsion with Life Plankton

For oily/combination skin: La Roche Posay Effaclar Mat

Facial Oil
A good quality facial oil mixed into your cleanser, day cream or night cream will help to lock in moisture and keep skin soft. After all, who doesn’t want skin that is supple, nourished and taut? We certainly do.

For dry skin: Elemis Superfood Facial Oil

Exfoliation
In the winter season in particular, you should get into the habit of exfoliating regularly to keep dull, dry skin at bay while tackling uneven pigmentation. There are many different varieties of exfoliators on the market, from liquid peels to gritty scrubs to textured cloths, just ensure whatever method you choose to not go overboard as this can overstimulate oily skin and leave dry skin feeling ever drier.

Little Extras
Don’t forget the rest of your body! A rich body lotion or oil can help to keep your arms, elbows and shins flake-free. A nourishing lip balm can help protect your lips from chapping and cracking, and a lavish foot lotion is just what your heels and toes need.
