While a winter wonderland creates a feeling of cozy comfort, it can devastate your skin. Freezing temperatures and stormy winds bring dreaded side effects that deplete your skin's moisture, leaving it dry and dull. To fight the cold, we have some key winter skin care tips, including a winter specific skin care regimen. We also handpicked a selection Eminence Organic Skin Care Products for calming and repairing even the driest winter skin.
Winter Skin Care: How the Season Affects Your Skin
It happens every year – winter subsides and your skin pulls back, becoming dry, raw, and dull. The cold season is often the worst season for you for several reasons Complexion. First, brutal winter weather lashes around your skin, and cool winds pull moisture right out. Second, we compensate for lower temperatures by turning up the thermostat, which further removes moisture from your skin. With a double attack, it's no wonder your skin suffers in winter.
The bottom line of winter conditions? Dull, dry skin. Without moisture, your skin may be more sensitive and reactive than normal. Even oily skin types suffer from unusual dryness and flaking. To soothe your complexion, here are our suggestions for winter skin care from Eminence Organics.
How to protect your skin in winter
1. Use a humidifier
In winter, convection heating blasts off moisture, removes important oils and leads to itchy skin. Try to counteract these drying effects by blowing a humidifier with warm or cold mist instead. Reintroduction Moisture in the air soothes and soothes irritated skin.
2. Hot showers and baths dry out your skin
You can warm up hot baths and showers on cold winter days, but only hot water – especially on the face dry out your skin. Extreme temperatures damage your skin's moisture barrier, preventing it from locking in the moisture it needs to stay soft and smooth.
3. Combat the symptoms of dry skin from within
Who would have thought that you can fight dry skin both inside and out? WebMD indicates that foods are rich in healthy fats improve the moisture content of your skin. Finally, fatty acids like omega-3 fatty acids help replenish the lipid barrier of your skin and protect it from moisture loss. Consume high-fat foods like flax, avocado, safflower oil, and nuts, as well as fish like salmon and sardines.
A 6-step winter skin care routine for hydration
To combat dull winter skin, we created a routine for all skin types that deals with winter issues. Follow these steps to give your complexion a glowing glow:
1. Cleaning
When winter draws the moisture away from your complexion, try adding an oil-based cleanser like ours Stone Crop Cleansing Oil for your skin care in winter. This type of cleanser is beneficial for all skin types (including oily ones!) As it can remove oil-based contaminants such as stubborn makeup. This cleanser also fills the skin with moisturizing ingredients like sunflower oil and jojoba oil. Use it alone or combine it with your favorite gel or cream-based cleanser in a double cleanse.
2nd tone
Another easy way to keep your skin hydrated during the winter months is to use a Toner. You can think of a toner as a conditioner for your cleansing. It adds a base layer of moisture that keeps your skin soft and hydrated. Try our Stone Crop Hydrating Mist with the unique properties of Stone Crop Plant to moisturize, soothe and heal dry skin.

3. Apply essence
One of the best ways to replenish dry winter skin is by adding one Essence for your skin care. A facial essence is a light liquid that is often described as a cross between toner and serum. Our Birch Water Cleansing Essence deeply moisturizes the skin and prepares it to take advantage of the following skin care products.
4. Peeling
Exfoliating is the best way to revive dull winter skin. However, it is important to remember that cold temperatures and high winds can also make your skin more reactive. Fabulous fun recommends Calm Skin Chamomile Peeling Peel: “Thanks to Eminences Peeling Peeling for at home, your skin looks fantastic. We love the chamomile version, which soothes and renews even the most sensitive skin without irritation or redness … and unlike some harsh formulas on the market, you can use this gentle one up to three times a week.

5. Treat
Eminence Organics face masks and facial oils are the perfect way to deliver an intense dose of nutrients and moisture to the skin. We recommend Rosehip Triple C + E Firming Oil, a facial that combines result-oriented active ingredients and ingredients for intensive hydration and protection. It can be used in the morning and in the evening and is suitable for all skin types.
6. Moisten
And finally, moisturize. Even if the sun isn't that strong in the colder months, sun damage can still occur.
