WHY CHANGE YOUR SKINCARE ROUTINE?

As we transition from the warm embrace of autumn to winter, your skin will start signalling the need for a change in your skincare routine. The colder months bring challenges such as dry air and harsh winds, which can sap moisture from your skin, leaving it dry, irritated, and dull.

  1. Moisture Retention: Winter air, both indoors and outdoors, tends to be drier. This environment pulls moisture from the skin, leading to dehydration, flaking, and cracking.
  2. Barrier Protection: Cold winds and dropping temperatures can strip the skin’s natural protective barrier, making it essential to reinforce it with richer, more nourishing products.
  3. Sensitivity and Redness: Lower temperatures can increase skin sensitivity, redness, and irritation, necessitating more gentle and protective skincare formulations.

THE COSMETIC CLINIC BRINGS THE WINTER SKINCARE ESSENTIALS

HYDRATING CLEANSER:

Swap out foaming cleansers, which can strip the skin, for hydrating ones that nourish while they cleanse. Try our Balense Daily Cleanser or Aesthetics RX Anti-pollution Cleanser

RICH MOISTURISERS:

Upgrade your lightweight lotion to a heavier cream or balm that provides more substantial moisture and creates a protective layer against harsh winter elements. Try our Aesthetics RX Hydrating Moisturiser or our H2O Hydrating balm on targeted areas

SERUMS: 

Incorporate a potent serum that can deliver concentrated active ingredients deeper into the skin. A perfect pick for winter is the Aesthetics RX Total Repair DNA Serum. This powerful serum is designed to not only hydrate but also repair environmental damage, thanks to its advanced formulation that supports the skin’s natural DNA repair process. With active ingredients aimed at reducing the signs of aging and protecting against the dry, harsh winter, it’s an ideal addition to your winter skincare arsenal.

SUNSCREEN:

Yes, even in winter! The sun’s UV rays can still cause significant damage. Continue using a broad-spectrum SPF to protect your skin. Try Our Aesthetics RX Tinted Sunscreen or our Balense UV Defiance

LIP AND EYE CARE:

These delicate areas are often the first to show signs of dryness and irritation, so don’t forget to apply a nourishing lip balm and an eye cream. Try our Vital eye cream and lip perfecter

As for treatments, our Hydrate RX facial is a great facial for all skin types to keep hydrated and includes a lymphatic drainage massage which is ideal for detoxifying and boosting the immune system.
