What skincare routine should you adopt in winter?
Throughout the winter, it’s more important than ever to pay extra attention to your skin by adapting your skincare routine. The cold weather is also the perfect opportunity to indulge yourself and give your skin the care it deserves.
The Cosmetics 27 team shares all their secrets for adopting a winter skincare routine that’s perfectly suited to your skin’s needs and the challenges of the season.
A winter skincare routine focused on hydration
In winter, the skin tends to become dehydrated and drier. Many skin types that are usually combination can become dry, or experience even more tightness and discomfort if they are already dry.
The skin is our largest organ, accounting for 16% of our total body weight. Its surface is covered by what we call the hydrolipidic film, a mixture of water and lipids that protects the skin from external aggressors while helping to retain moisture. In winter, this protective barrier is put to the test, which is why it’s essential to provide the skin with the hydration it needs.
To replenish your skin’s hydration levels in the extracellular matrix and epidermis, apply Essence 27 morning and evening. Use the fluid alone as a daily treatment or as a serum to boost your skin’s hydration. You can also mix Essence 27 with another product from our range to enhance its fluidity and further hydrate the skin.
A winter skincare routine focused on the eye contour
During winter, we all experience varying degrees of fatigue. Lack of sleep takes a toll on our skin, especially around the eyes. Dark circles and signs of fatigue are clear indicators that it's time to give extra attention to this delicate area.
The skin around the eyes is particularly fragile and can show signs of dark circles, puffiness, as well as fine lines and wrinkles. In winter, it’s especially important to intensify your eye care routine by using the Eyes 27 high-penetration fluid daily. Thanks to extracts of black coffee, kombucha, and buckwheat, Eyes 27 targets puffiness and dark circles. Its CICA MA2 complex also helps restructure the skin tissue, leaving the eye contour brighter with reduced puffiness and dark circles.
Essential allies for your beauty routine during the cold season
A rich moisturizer combined with an oil is the best way to care for your skin during winter. This combination helps to lock in moisture beneath the skin and protect it from the harsh winter winds.
To provide optimal protection, it’s essential to choose a rich cream. At Cosmetics 27, we’ve developed nourishing and rich formulas like Baume 27, our flagship product now available in an Advanced Formula for even more intense repair. Baume 27 should be applied morning and evening to a perfectly cleansed face and is ideal for mature, prematurely aging, and dry skin types.
To enhance the effectiveness of your balm, pair it with an oil like Huile 27, which will give your complexion a healthy glow throughout the winter. Don’t hesitate to indulge in a moment of well-being by using Huile 27 with massage tools. With each treatment, your skin will regain its balance, becoming nourished, soft, and supple—ready to face the winter elements.
