As the weather changes, so does your skin! It’s normal to feel extra dry and flakey during these winter months. Here are our favourite skincare tips to get your skin healthy and glowing even in the harshest climates.

USE A HYDRATING SERUM: Hydration is key to having supple skin. We recommend SkinHealthMD Hyaluronic Acid Serum because it is not only super hydrating but also increases the benefits of your layered products!

USE AN OIL OR CREAM CLEANSER: If you are feeling super dry and crusty, switch to an oil or cream based cleanser in place of a gel or foam.

USE A HYDRATING MIST: As soon as you pat your face dry, apply a toner or mist to lock in that hydration immediately! Sprint from your shower to your hydrating mist/toner. We recommend the pre-treatment toner from Hydropeptide - and the best pro-tip of them all, replace the cap with a mist/spray top. It will change your routine forever!

EXFOLIATE WEEKLY: Contrary to popular belief, dry skin still needs to be exfoliated. Think of it as applying paint on something that isn’t sanded down properly… yikes. 👎 Dead skin cells are blocking your products from penetrating deeply and doing their job. We love the exfoliating cleanser from Hydropeptide and/or the Hydropeptide polish and plump kit!

USE AN OIL-RICH MOISTURIZER: Our Summer vs. Winter routines can and should be different! Double up on your moisture in the colder months and your skin will be happy that you did!

USE A SKIN OIL/BALM: the cherry on top of your moisturizer is a skin oil or balm. Finishing your routine off with an oil, locks that moisture in and soothes your skin for much longer!
