Top 10 Skincare Products to Use This Winter

Winter! It’s a time for westerly winds and bracing weather, for woolly jumpers and warming firesides. It’s also a time for taking extra special care of yourself. The colder months are often the signal for dry, flaky skin, increased irritation and chapped lips that feel like they’re about to fall off. But fear not! These 10 skincare products have been specially designed to keep you looking and feeling radiant, even during the harshest of winter days and nights.

Hope in a Jar by Philosophy

Firstly, protecting against dry skin is most effectively achieved with a quality moisturizer. The Hope in a Jar is a firm fan’s favorite for many different reasons. Not only will it hydrate and protect your skin against free radical damage, but it gives a helpful boost to texture, tone and coloration.

AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution by The Ordinary

The dryness caused by the colder temperatures can often lead to a build-up of dead cells on the skin’s surface. Therefore, it’s a good idea to exfoliate once a week to freshen things up. This high-strength solution will get to work in just 10 minutes and leave your face positively glowing.

Water Drench Hydra-Gel Eye Patches by Peter Thomas Roth

This tub of 60 revitalizing eye patches are the perfect antidote to wintry temperatures. The hyaluronic acid contained within is capable of retaining up to 1,000 times its weight in atmospheric moisture and locking that in to your epidermis. Resulting in the reduction of the appearance of crow’s feet, wrinkles and other unsightly lines that can appear during the colder months.

Hydrating Yogurt Mask by Amala Beauty

A weekly application of an overnight face mask is the perfect way to treat yourself and bring your skin back to its glowing best. This hydrating yogurt mask from Amala combines ingredients such as macadamia and rosehip seed. It is designed to soothe dry, dehydrated skin and return its youthful luster.
