Winter care: how to keep skin and hair healthy

Essential winter care

Cold weather and low air humidity can compromise our body's natural protective barrier. To avoid dryness and sensitivity, adopting a constant care routine is fundamental.

1. Facial hydration

Focus: Face.
Action: Apply a facial moisturizer suitable for your skin type immediately after cleansing.
Tip: In cold weather, denser or creamier textures usually offer a greater sense of comfort for the skin.

2. Lip protection

Focus: Lips.
Action: Use lip balms that contain moisturizing agents throughout the day.
Tip: Avoid licking your lips when you feel dryness, as saliva can increase discomfort and peeling.

3. Body hydration

Focus: Body.
Action: Prioritize the use of moisturizing creams immediately after showering to help retain moisture in the skin.
Tip: Avoid very hot and prolonged showers, which can remove the skin's natural oils.

4. Hair care

Focus: Hair.
Action: Use leave-in creams or finishing oils to help maintain hair hydration.
Tip: Try to reduce the frequent use of heat sources, such as hair dryers and straighteners, to avoid excessive dryness.

5. Hand care

Focus: Hands and cuticles.
Action: Keep a hand cream nearby and apply it after using cleaning products or sanitizers.
Tip: Applying a generous moisturizer before bed can help the skin recover overnight.

Note: If you experience persistent irritation, severe peeling, or extreme sensitivity, consult a dermatologist for a personalized diagnosis and treatment.
