Winterizing Your Skincare Routine for Different Skin Types
Why Winter Skincare Matters
Colder months bring lower humidity and drier air, which can dehydrate skin and disrupt its natural barrier. Just as we swap sandals for boots, we must adjust our skincare routine to maintain healthy, balanced skin.
The Best Time for Targeted Skin Treatments
Winter is an ideal season for peels and laser treatments, as there’s less sun exposure, reducing the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Cosmelan: A top treatment for hyperpigmentation and melasma.
Fraxel (Fractionated Laser): Targets fine lines, wrinkles, and pigmentation.
Apeele (Medium Depth Chemical Peel): Ideal for acne and overall skin rejuvenation.
Winter Skincare for Different Skin Types
Oily Skin
Oily skin may not feel as dry, but adding a hydrator or serum keeps it balanced.
Recommended serums: iS Clinical Hydracool, gllo Beauty’s HA Serum.
Exfoliation: Continue regular exfoliation with chemical exfoliants like AlumierMD Bright & Clear Solution or Enzymatic Peel to remove dead skin cells and enhance serum absorption.
Normal Skin
Switch from a gel cleanser to an oil or cream-based cleanser.
Maintain active ingredients like retinol but switch to a cream-based moisturizer for barrier support.
Dry Skin
Hydration is key: Emollients (creams and lotions) and occlusives (oils) prevent water loss.
Layering is essential: Apply products from lightest to heaviest (e.g., toner → serum → moisturizer).
Sensitive Skin
Winter skin is fragile and prone to irritation.
Use a calming, hydrating regimen such as AlumierMD Calming Collection.
Professional facials every 3–4 weeks help exfoliate, hydrate, and refresh the skin.
Recommended Winter Facials
Diamond Glow Facial: Uses a real diamond tip for deep exfoliation, pore extraction, and serum infusion.
YOU GLOW GIRL Facial: Features a resurfacing mask and Hyaluronic Acid infusion for ultimate hydration.
Both facials brighten, hydrate, and enhance winter skincare routines, ensuring a radiant glow even in colder months.
