Skincare Products for Winter Brides

A Super Hydrating Moisturiser

When it comes to winter based skincare, having a hydrating and creamy moisturiser should be your top priority. It'll help fight dryness and add elasticity to your skin. Plus, a good hydrating moisturiser paired with a serum or essence will improve your natural glow, giving you a gorgeous dewy look! Most people worry that a heavy moisturiser might cause acne, especially if you have oily skin.聽But, if your skin is dehydrated, it鈥檚 at the risk of overproducing sebum, thereby giving you breakouts anyway. Find one that鈥檚 well-suited to your skin and packed with goodies like Vitamin E, for that burst of hydration.

A Gentle Face Cleanser

The clarifying cleansers you were using in summers might not work for winters. They might dry your skin even more. So, opt for a gentle face cleanser that is probably soap-free. We suggest a聽gel or聽cream-based cleanser with salicylic acid to remove any impurities during colder months, without upsetting the skin's natural lipid barrier.

Winter-Friendly Body Butter

The body butter will be your best friend during winter.聽The smooth, thick and creamy consistency of body butter is very similar to the butter we love slathering on toast. There was a time when our grandmas would apply generous dollops of home-churned white butter to nourish and hydrate their limbs during winters. So why deviate from tradition?聽Body butter last longer and deeply nourishes the skin and balance your skin's natural moisture.聽They鈥檙e mostly a combination of wholesome oils like Coconut or Jojoba, and raw extracts of natural butter like Shea or Cocoa.聽

Extra Moisture For Your Lips

Lip balms are unfortunately the underdogs of a bride's beauty regime. While a lot of women believe that the swipe of a good lipstick can bedazzle their pucker and hide any underlying damage, it's the lip balm that's supposed to help you fix that damage. No amount of lipstick can conceal dry, dehydrated lips. Plus, it's a real injustice to your big-budget lipstick to have it worn over dry lips. Choose a nourishing lip balm that will not only hydrate your lips but also keep them protected from further damage.聽

Multitasking Serums

One of the best things you can do for your skin during winters is to add a serum to your skincare regime. You need a product that has multi-tasking properties. You have no idea what a handy and efficient tiny bottle of serum can do to your skin! As much as we love brides slaying a good makeup look, glowing skin helps. Our favourite is the聽L'Occitane Immortelle Reset Serum. This serum聽allows your skin to awaken and re-energise while making it switch聽on your skin鈥檚 repair mechanism and nourish it.

Sleeping Mask For Extra Hydration

A good sleeping mask can be a one-and-done product鈥攊t may contain聽hyaluronic acid, fatty acids, exfoliating acids and antioxidants like Vitamin C鈥攚hich would all brighten and hydrate your skin as you snooze, so you wake up with suppler skin in the morning. They鈥檙e water-based, easily absorbable and considerably lighter on the skin than your regular moisturiser. If your skin is feeling a lack of hydration, it can also lead to a damaged skin barrier, which can leave it susceptible to聽imbalanced oil production聽that could result in breakouts or rosacea.

Hydrating Sun聽Screens

One of the biggest reasons why your skin is not cooperating with you during winters is the lack of sunscreen. Many people skip out on SPF during the colder months because they feel like they don't need it. However, you need sunscreen during winters, preferably a hydrating one.聽Go in for an ultra-hydrating, light sunscreen that鈥檒l leave your skin flake-free. These moisturising sun protectors will cause zero itchiness, irritation or redness, and shield your skin from harmful UVA and UVB rays.
