When it comes to skincare, it's easy to get lost in the plethora of products that are available and it can be overwhelming to figure out what works best for your skin. However, in the winter months, it's important to simplify your routine and focus on using minimal skincare products that offer multiple benefits.
Winter can be especially harsh on the skin, causing it to become dry, flaky, and even itchy. This is due to the cold, dry air outside and the hot, dry air inside from heating systems.
“Using too many skincare products can strip the skin of its natural oils and exacerbate these issues. By using minimal products, each with multiple benefits, you can help to nourish and protect your skin without overwhelming it,” explains Clere Gly-Co-Oil brand manager Themba Ndlovu.
Ndlovu explains how you can pare back on your skincare products without compromising on efficacy:
One of the best products to use in the winter months is a moisturiser that contains a humectant ingredient. Humectants like glycerine help to draw moisture to the skin. Look for a moisturiser that contains this ingredient to help hydrate and protect your skin.
Using an oil-based product can be very helpful in winter. Oil can provide intense hydration and nourishment to the skin, helping to combat dryness and flakiness. Clere’s Gly-Co-Oil provides a concentrated combination of moisturising Glycerine and nourishing Tissue Oil and has been specifically formulated to reduce the appearance of stretch marks and revitalise dehydrated skin. When used together, tissue oil and glycerine can create a powerful one-two punch for combating dry winter skin. Tissue oil helps to nourish and protect the skin, while glycerine helps to hydrate and plump it up. The product is non-greasy and absorbs quickly, making it a great option for people who don't want to feel weighed down by heavy skincare products. Incorporating Gly-Co-Oil into your winter skincare routine can help you achieve healthy, hydrated, and glowing skin all season long.
By using minimal skincare products that each possess multiple benefits, you can simplify your routine and still provide your skin with the nourishment and protection it needs in the winter months.
