Winter Glow: Top tips to combat dry and dehydrated skin

Posted by Mitchell USA on

As the winter season's chill sets in, the dry air makes the skin dry. It leaves the skin tight, flaky and dehydrated. This drop in humidity during the colder months makes it hard for skin to grab in the moisture, thus resulting in dullness and sensitivity. However, with the right skin care routine and few ingredients you can keep your skin hydrated, glowing and protected all season along. Some of the tips to help combat dry winter skin and the use of LightenUp Smooth Radiance Clarifying Day Cream that includes Peony and Alpha Arbutin. It protects the skin, brightens and moisturises it.

Start with cleansing

Harsh cleansers take away natural oils from the skin especially during the winters. Choose a cleanser that is smooth and has skin-friendly ingredients like glycerine. It attracts the moisture and locks it into the skin. The idea is to have cleansers that clean the skin without leaving any drying effect. This prevents dehydration from the very first step of skin care.

Add LightenUp Smooth Radiance Clarifying Day Cream to  your routine

LightenUp Smooth Radiance Clarifying Day Cream is known for the rich antioxidant properties that your skin needs during the winter. The ingredient like Peony protects the skin from environmental stressors which work roughly on the skin during the winter months. Let’s explore how Peony works on the winter dryness:

  • Anti-oxidant guard- It is tons of antioxidants properties that freeze the harmful free radicals of the skin. These radicals are harmful for the skin cells and make it dull with uneven complexion. Protection from these radicals is important. It protects the winter skin which is exposed to cold and windy conditions.
  • Boost natural skin defense- Peony activates the skin’s defense mechanisms which makes it stronger and more resilient. With regular use, Peony helps the skin and make it more equipped to fight the environmental aggressors like pollution and UV radiation.
  • Hydrates and soothes- Peony naturally soothes the skin and makes it perfect for sensitive or irritated winter skin. It also reduces the redness and keeps the skin calm around dry areas.

Alpha Arbutin for Pigmentation

Winter is the best time to work on the skin for the unwanted pigmentation or uneven skin tone. Alpha Arbutin, another vital ingredient in our cream, has all the essential skin-brightening essentials.It will be best to use to target dark spots and pigmentation problems in winters. Let’s explore the process:

  • Lower the pressure of Melanin Activity: Alpha Arbutin looks at inhibiting tyrosinase and works on it. This is an enzyme involved in melanin production. It slows the pressure of melanin activity and reduces dark spots which is exacerbated by sun exposure and environment.
  • Gentle and effective: Alpha Arbutin is gentle on skin even during winter when skin is more prone to sensitivity. It fades pigmentation gradually without any irritation and leaves even complexion.
  • Brightens skin tone: Regular usage of Alpha Arbutin gives skin a natural brightness. It helps in countering the dullness that comes during the winter dryness.

Lock in the moisture

One of the most difficult and most practiced tasks during the winter is skincare routine. It has to be good to reach, hydrate and moisture locking. Always consider the products that have basic ingredients like ceramides, shea butter and squalane. It helps in long-lasting hydration and supports the skin from natural barrier function. Follow the step as mentioned:

  • Apply moisturizer when skin is damp- To use most of the moisturizer, apply it when it is slightly damp after cleansing or applying a serum. This traps the water on the skin and allows the moisturizer to better penetrate and hydrate.
  • Use a night cream- Night cream is thicker and richer than daytime moisturizer. It has intense hydration that fluffs and repairs the skin during sleep time. Add a nourishing night cream into the winter skincare routine that retains the moisture to better hydrate and penetrate.

Stay hydrated inside and out

Hydration doesn’t come only with the products you put on the skin. It is also about staying hydrated from within. Drink plenty of water throughout the day and consider a humidifier to the living space. Use  LightenUp Smooth Radiance Clarifying Day Cream  and utlise the benefits of  ingredients like peony and Alpha Arbutin that  work best in moisturising your skin.
