Winter has officially arrived. Tight and itchy skin, rough knuckles and dry and chapped lips are all the result of colder temperatures, steaming hot showers, harsh winds and central heating. Seasonality has a major influence on our skin. Skin needs can differ greatly as it reacts to exposure of the elements.
Generally, winter skin can look rather lacklustre and lose its natural radiance. At that moment, your skin requires special attention to endure the exposure of harsh winds and extremes of temperature.
Not to mention that coughs and colds can add more stress, with lots of nose-blowing and soreness. Importantly dry skin is often more sensitive. So throughout winter and the colder months, show your skin more TLC and protection, provide comfort and care to areas of redness, chapping and irritation.
EVERON LIP BALM
Protect and moisturise your lips with Weleda Everon Lip Balm. The combination of beeswax, jojoba oil and shea butter will not only prevent lips from drying, cracking and chapping but also soothe after exposure to the wind. Simply apply to lips regularly, as and when required.
SKIN FOOD
Turn up the nourishment with Weleda’s ‘miracle worker,’ Skin Food, which smooths dry rough skin, wrapping it in a comfort blanket of natural goodness. Squeeze out a small amount and rub well between your hands, to melt and warm the balm, before patting or gently rolling onto your skin. The 100% natural ingredients absorb quickly, reveal inner radiance and vitality and smell divine.
Adjusting your skincare to fit the rhythm of the seasons is logical. Nourishing, rich creams, oils and balms are perfect for winter, whereas, lighter hydration is ideal for summer.
