How to Care for Dry Skin in the Winter

A Simple Guide to Soft, Hydrated, Healthy Skin

Winter can be one of the hardest seasons for your skin. Cold winds, central heating and low humidity can all draw moisture from the body, leaving skin feeling dry, tight and uncomfortable. If you notice more flakiness, dullness or sensitivity during the colder months, you’re not alone, winter skincare needs a little extra care.

Here’s a simple, effective winter body care routine to keep your skin smooth, hydrated and glowing all season long, featuring exfoliation, deep moisturisation, mineral-rich baths and gentle fragrance free freshness.

How Winter Impacts Your Skin

During the colder months, your skin faces several challenges:

• Dry Air: Winter air holds less moisture, which can strip hydration from the skin.
• Central Heating: Indoor heating reduces humidity, leading to dryness and irritation.
• Harsh Weather: Cold winds can weaken the skin barrier, worsening sensitivity and roughness.
• Less Natural Oil Production: Skin can produce fewer natural oils in winter, which leads to flakiness and a dull appearance.

The good news? With the right products and routine, you can keep your skin soft, healthy, and comfortable throughout winter.
