We put these 5 winter skincare tips together to help your skin make it through the Winter. As we all know, Sonoma County has beautiful weather during Spring, Summer, and Fall but there’s no denying that during winter, things tend to get a little “dry”. Along with the Winter dryness, windy days don’t help our skin much either.

5 Winter Skincare Tips

  1. Moisturize
    Keep skin moisturized, apply day & night! Not only does moisturizer feel good and keep skin hydrated, it also creates a barrier between skin & environment to prevent wind burn & chapped skin. Always check that it’s the correct moisturizer for your skin type (dry, combo, oily). Yes even oily skin needs moisture and protection.
  2. Turn Down the Heater
    Dry air + dry skin, eyes & nose = uncomfortable.
  3. Drink Water
    Your skin reflects what you put into your body. If you aren’t getting enough water daily, your skin will feel tight & dry. Find out how much water you should be in-taking daily here.
  4. Exfoliate
    Exfoliate with a manual scrub 2x per week. That way you are getting rid of the dead skin cells on the surface with out over scrubbing & sensitizing skin. Dead skin cells may be blocking your moisturizer from penetrating deep into the skin to keep it hydrated.
  5. Book your Seasonal Facial
    In a perfect world, estheticians recommend facials every 4-6 weeks. However, not all of us have the time, which is understandable. At the very least, book your facials when the seasons change (Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall). This guarantees a deep cleaning, any new skincare concerns can be addressed and your at-home regimen can be adjusted. On a time crunch? Click here to learn about our Glow & Go Skincare Treatments.
