Winter Skincare 101: How to Take Care of Your Skin During the Winter

Frosty weather, indoor heating, and lower humidity levels all mean one thing: it’s time to stock up on winter skincare essentials! Those rosy cheeks don’t always just mean it’s time for a cup of hot cocoa. Winter is notorious for causing dry skin and inflammation and, in some cases, causing existing skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, and rosacea to flare up.

While some of your skincare staples should be perfectly fine for weathering the weather, you may need to update your usual regimen with products that combat the harshness of the season. Follow this guide to winter skincare to keep your skin supple, hydrated, and glowing while Jack Frost nips at your nose!

Switch to a Gentle Hydrating Cleanser

As the humidity drops, your skin is more susceptible to dehydration. Your facial cleanser is the first step in your skincare routine, setting the stage for the products that follow. Harsh cleansers may leave your skin feeling squeaky clean, but it’s stripping your skin of its natural moisture—a big no-no during wintertime!

Instead, use a hydrating cleanser that’s gentle yet still efficacious. The goal is to remove impurities while leaving your skin’s natural protective layers and moisturizer intact and ideally providing deep hydration at the same time.

Winter Skincare Recommendation: 

Lea Black Beauty® Skin Revitalizing Daily Face Wash

Moisturize (More Than Usual)

Moisturizers should top your list of winter skincare essentials. Combating dry, brittle, inflamed, and red skin requires deeply hydrating moisturizers that lock moisture in, provide a protective barrier that keeps harsh environmental damage at bay, and help restore and renew damaged skin. CBD, ceramides, glycerin, and hyaluronic acid are all ingredients to seek out.

You don’t need to stop using your favorite moisturizer. If you love it, by all means, keep using it! That said, you might need something with a little more oomph for those especially harsh winter days and nights.

Winter Skincare Recommendations:

Lea Black Beauty® CBD Daily Face Moisturizer

Lea Black Beauty® Sudden Youth® 500mg CBD Intensive Moisture Renewal Cream

Exfoliate to Remove Dead Skin Cells

As frigid temperatures, frosty winds, and toasty indoor heat pull moisture from the skin, skin cells die faster than usual. Those expired skin cells can build up quickly, leaving a layer that causes dullness. That layer can also prevent much-needed moisture from getting in when you use oils and serums and other nourishing products.

All too often, exfoliating is viewed as something you do once in a while, as a special treat. However, it should be a regular part of your year-round and winter skincare routines. Exfoliators buff away skin debris to leave your complexion glowing. They also unclog pores, remove dry patches, and stimulate collagen production to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Winter Skincare Essential:

Lea Black Beauty® Moisturizing Skin Renewal Exfoliant

Don’t Overlook Your Lips, Eyes, and Body

Winter weather takes a toll on all of your skin. It’s easy to be so focused on your T-zone and cheeks that you forget to take care of other common winter struggles, such as chapped lips, irritated eye areas, and inflamed skin throughout the rest of your body. Make sure you’re armed with lip balm, eye care, and body lotion.

Winter Skincare Recommendations:

Lea Black Beauty® CBD Lip Balm Treatment

Lea Black Beauty® Hyaluronic Hydra-Gel Eye Patches

Lea Black Beauty® Premium Hemp Soothing Eye Cream

Lea Black Beauty® Natural Youth® 200mg CBD Hand & Body Lotion

Be Mindful of Sun Damage

Of course, your summertime skincare routine includes sun protection, but did you know that UV damage occurs all year round? In fact, the sun can be especially dangerous during wintertime because it hides behind clouds. Yes, UV rays are still out and about, even on those gray, dreary winter days. Wear sunscreen daily, and pamper UV-damaged skin with a soothing gel.

Winter Skincare Recommendation:

Lea Black Beauty® 100mg CBD After Sun & Shave Soothing Skin Treatment
