How Can I Improve My Skin In Winter?
Do you notice a change in your skin during the winter months? Cold, harsh weather, low humidity and indoor heating can cause skin to become dry, flaky and irritated. At a microscopic level a lack of moisture and oil weakens your skins natural barrier, leaving it susceptible to invading chemicals causing rednmess irritations and sensivity.

Seasonal Skincare Swaps
With a few small adjustments, you can make sure your skin stays nourished and protected all winter long. Layering on extra hydration during colder days will restore lost moisture and relieve dry, thristy skin.
tight after cleansing?
Soap based cleansers can strip the skin. Swap to a creamy cleanser to keep barrier lipids intact leaving skin clean and moisturised.

Swap to a soothing gel moisturiser to hydrate while calming redness and sensitivity. Dual hyaluronic technology locks in moisture.

cracks and dryness?
Just like the good fats in our diet, a boost of skin lipids can replenish and restore our skin’s barrier protecting against the ravages of winter.

looking dull?
Restore dewy luminous skin with a dose of nourishing oils and butters that penetrate skin’s surface layers to deeply nourish and rehydrate. Use a treatment masque 1-2 times a week or as needed.
