Winter is one of the harshest seasons for skin. The cold, wind and sudden temperature changes between the heated indoors and outdoors can wreak havoc, leaving skin dry, irritated and dull. But all is not lost: with a few tweaks to your routine and the right products, you can keep your skin hydrated and healthy all season long.
Here's a complete guide to caring for your skin in winter, with some of our top Aloe Vera Exclusive products.
1. Gentle but effective cleansing
One of the first steps to keeping your skin in top condition is to cleanse it properly, without stripping it of its natural oils. In winter, avoid harsh cleansers that can dry out your skin. Opt for gentler products that moisturise and cleanse at the same time.
2. Moisturising: your best ally
Cold weather tends to dry out the skin, leaving it without the moisture it needs. To counteract this, it is essential to use a rich, nourishing moisturiser to help restore the skin's protective barrier.
Aloe Vera Exclusive Aloe Vera Moisturising Face Cream is an excellent choice. Formulated with pure aloe vera, it penetrates deep into the skin, providing long-lasting hydration. Aloe vera is known for its soothing and regenerating properties, making it the perfect ingredient to keep your skin hydrated and radiant during the colder months.
3. Don't forget the body
Skin care doesn't end with the face. Often, we neglect our body skin during the winter, which can lead to dryness, itchiness and irritation.
After showering, use Aloe Vera and Jojoba Body Lotion to seal moisture into your skin. With natural ingredients that help soothe and nourish, this lotion is ideal for restoring skin's softness and elasticity. In addition, aloe vera helps to soothe any redness or irritation caused by the cold.
4. Protect your hands
Hands are one of the parts of the body most exposed to cold and wind, making them one of the first to show signs of dryness. Using a moisturising hand cream regularly is essential to prevent them from becoming chapped or rough.
Aloe Vera Hand Cream is perfect for winter. Not only does it deeply moisturise, but it also forms a protective barrier that keeps moisture in your hands, protecting them from the effects of winter weather.
5. The power of Aloe Vera for skin regeneration
One of the most valuable benefits of aloe vera is its ability to regenerate and repair skin. If your skin has been damaged by the cold, or if you feel irritation, aloe vera can be a natural and effective remedy.
Aloe Vera Gel by Aloe Vera Exclusive is a multi-purpose product that you can apply to any part of your body that needs extra care. It soothes irritated skin, repairs damaged areas and helps regenerate tissue. Perfect for use on the face, hands or even after shaving.
6. Sun protection, even in winter
Believe it or not, this is the most important step in preventing your skin from ageing. While the sun may not seem as strong in winter, UV rays are still present and can damage your skin. Don't forget to apply sunscreen, especially on sunny days or if you're spending time outdoors.
7. Lip care
Lips are extremely sensitive to cold and wind and tend to chap easily, so it's essential to keep them moisturised.
Use our Aloe Vera Lip Balm, available in several versions, including one unscented and one with a delicious melon scent. This balm provides long-lasting hydration and protects lips from external aggressions.
