Introduction

As temperatures drop and the air becomes drier, many of us notice an unwelcome change in our skin. Tightness, flakiness, redness – these are just a few common signs that your skin is crying out for help. Winter skin care is more than just switching to a thicker moisturiser; it’s about adapting your entire skincare routine to meet your skin’s seasonal needs.

At La Peau, we understand how harsh winter weather can be on your skin. So, let’s walk you through how to elevate your skin treatment in winter to maintain that summer glow year-round.

Why Winter Skin Needs Special Care

In winter, cold air, strong winds, and indoor heating strip your skin of its natural moisture barrier. This leaves it vulnerable to dryness, irritation, and even conditions like eczema or rosacea. Without proper winter skin care, your complexion can become dull and dehydrated.

Top Winter Skin Care Tips

1. Hydrate from the Inside Out

It’s easy to forget water when it’s not scorching outside, but hydration is just as important in winter. Drink plenty of water throughout the day and consider using a humidifier to add moisture back into your indoor air.

2. Switch to a Cream-Based Cleanser

Foaming cleansers can be too harsh during winter. Opt for a gentle, cream-based cleanser that won’t strip away your skin’s natural oils.

3. Exfoliate Gently

Don’t skip exfoliation – just be mindful. Exfoliating once or twice a week helps remove dead skin cells and allows moisturisers to penetrate more deeply. Choose gentle exfoliants with lactic acid or enzymes.

4. Boost Moisture with Serums and Masks

Hyaluronic acid serums and nourishing overnight masks are your best friends in winter. They provide deep hydration and help reinforce the skin barrier.

5. Always Use Sunscreen

Yes, even in winter. Harmful UV rays are still active and can damage your skin, especially when reflected by snow or ice. Use a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher daily.

Best Professional Skin Treatment in Winter

If you’re struggling with persistent dryness or irritation, professional skin treatments can make all the difference. At La Peau, we offer:

  • Hydrating facials tailored for dry, sensitive winter skin.
  • LED light therapy to calm inflammation and boost collagen.
  • Enzyme peels to remove dry, flakey skin.

Each treatment is customised to your skin’s needs – because no two winter skins are the same.

Ingredients to Look For

When selecting your winter skincare products, these ingredients can work wonders:

  • Ceramides – Restore the skin’s protective barrier.
  • Hyaluronic Acid – Draws moisture into the skin.
  • Shea Butter – Provides rich, long-lasting hydration.
  • Niacinamide – Soothes irritated, red skin.

Simple Lifestyle Tweaks That Help

  • Take shorter, lukewarm showers – Hot water strips oils from your skin.
  • Wear gloves and scarves – Protect exposed skin from the elements.
  • Avoid wool directly on the skin – It can cause irritation for sensitive types.
  • Get enough sleep – Your skin repairs itself while you rest.
