Seasonal Skincare: How to Adapt Your Routine for Winter

Winter brings a drop in temperature, but it can also bring a host of skincare challenges. Dry air, cold winds, and indoor heating strip your skin of its natural moisture, leading to dryness, flakiness, and irritation. Adapting your skincare routine for the colder months is essential to keep your skin hydrated, healthy, and radiant. With expert advice and premium Ayurvedic skincare products, Koshika Wellness offers holistic solutions to combat winter-related skin issues.

Common Winter Skincare Issues

1. Dry Skin:

   • The lack of humidity in the air causes moisture to evaporate from the skin, leading to dryness and tightness.

2. Chapped Lips:

   • The sensitive skin on your lips is highly susceptible to cracking and peeling during winter.

3. Flakiness:

   • Dead skin cells accumulate on the surface, causing flakiness and a dull appearance.

4. Irritation and Redness:

   • Cold winds and indoor heating can aggravate sensitive skin, leading to irritation and redness.

5. Itchy, Cracked Hands:

   • Constant hand washing combined with cold air can make hands rough and cracked.

   
   

Winter Skincare Tips

1. Hydrate from Within

• Drink plenty of water even if you don’t feel as thirsty in winter. Herbal teas can also be a soothing option to stay hydrated.

2. Use a Gentle Cleanser

• Swap your foaming or gel-based cleanser for a cream-based one to avoid stripping your skin of its natural oils.

3. Switch to a Rich Moisturiser

• Upgrade your moisturiser to one with richer formulations containing ingredients like shea butter, hyaluronic acid, and glycerine. Koshika Wellness' Ayurvedic Moisturising Cream, infused with natural oils, provides deep hydration while nourishing the skin.

4. Exfoliate Wisely

• Exfoliation removes dead skin cells but should be done sparingly in winter. Use a mild exfoliant once a week to keep your skin smooth without over-drying.

5. Don’t Skip Sunscreen

• The winter sun can still damage your skin. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher daily to protect against UV rays.

6. Care for Your Lips

• Keep a lip balm handy. Choose one with natural ingredients like beeswax or coconut oil to soothe chapped lips.

7. Invest in a Humidifier

• Use a humidifier indoors to add moisture to the air, preventing your skin from drying out.

8. Target Specific Areas

• Focus on commonly neglected areas like hands, feet, and elbows. Koshika Wellness' Herbal Body Butters are perfect for nourishing these dry zones.
