Keep Your Skin Fresh This Winter

by - November 28, 2018



I always find that my skin changed so much this time of year, and takes a lot more loving to keep it in top shape. No matter what skin type you have the colder climate is going to have a harsh effect on your skin so you need to make sure you are keeping it moisturised. I have a ton of favourite products that I love to use during the colder months that I am going to share with you! I suffer from oily skin majority of the year, but do have a lot of dry patches when it becomes colder. 

1. Moisturisers 
I will admit that on a normal day I tend not to moisturise, I know shoot me....  However if I don't this time of year I get so many dry patches on my cheeks and nose. I have found a couple of favourite high end and also drugstore moisturisers in the past few years, here are a couple of my favourites...
  • Moisture Surge (Clinique) 
  • Complete Lightweight 3in1 Moisturiser (Olay)
  • Dramatically Different (Clinique) 
  • Active Moist (Dermalogica) 
I tend to moisturise twice a day before I apply my make up and once I have wiped it off at night. If I am going to the gym I will apply it after I have worked out too save my skin drying out! 

2. Make Up Removers
Something I have to do near enough everyday is remove my make up, I find this can have a major impact on my skin too! I prefer using a more oil based make up remover, with warm water and a wash cloth.  I recommend these two highly-
  • Pre Cleanse (Dermalogica) 
  • Make Up Removing Cleansing Oil (Caudile)
If you know of any other good ones then please let me know, these are both pretty pricey, but work amazingly. I tend not to use micellar waters this time of year as I find it drys my skin out quite a bit.. 

3. Masks
I am a massive lover of a good face mask, suffering from break outs believe me they are my besties! I use a lot of clay masks majority of the year to dry out my spots. However in the colder months I sway more towards sheet masks! I find them so moisturising and they do sell a lot for acne prone skin so its a win win! These are my favourites... 
  • Hydrochloric Acid Sheet Mask (Primark) 
  • Sephora Coconut Sheet Mask
  • Vitamin E Sleep Mask (The Body Shop) 
I still use my Loreal Detox mask once a week too, however I try and use a more nourishing mask too, so I am not drying my skin out too much.

There we have it my top tips to keeping your skin in order over the next few cold months.. I hope you've enjoyed reading this post and thank you!

Love

Mel

    I have quite oily skin, but in winter time it kind of turns into very dry one. So I always change my routine for autumn and winter to keep up with all the changes and it looks the same as yours. Moisturize twice a day and a lot more sheet masks or some moisturizing masks.
