Winter is a stress for the skin: cold, wind, and heating make it dry, sensitive, and prone to irritation. Many habits that work great in summer can harm in winter. We analyze key mistakes and how to fix them to maintain healthy skin glow.
Mistake #1. Summer Care All Year Round
Light gels and fluids are suitable for hot weather, but in winter they do not cope with dehydration.
How to fix it: use thicker creams with ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and nourishing lipids in the morning and evening.
Mistake #2. Washing with Hot Water
Hot water destroys the skin's protective barrier, increases dryness, and causes redness.
How to fix it: wash your face with warm water, gently cleansing without rushing.
Mistake #3. Refusing SPF in Winter
The sun can cause pigmentation even in frost and cloudy weather, and snow enhances its effect.
How to fix it: apply SPF 30–50 every day — it protects against premature aging and spots.
Mistake #4. Aggressive Cleansers
Foams that leave your skin feeling tight strip it of lipids, making it vulnerable.
How to fix it: choose milk, cream-gel, or cleansing oil — gentle and effective.
Mistake #5. Lack of Hydration
In winter, we often drink less, and the skin quickly reacts with dullness and tightness.
How to fix it: drink water more often, herbal teas, and include juicy fruits in your diet — kiwi, citrus fruits, pomegranate.
