WINTER SKINCARE REQUIREMENTS TO COMBAT DEHYDRATION AND DRYNESS

Winter is finally here, which means cosy knits, hefty boots, and a nail and makeup colour scheme of berries and burgundies. However, the change to cooler weather can wreak havoc on our complexions when it comes to taking care of our skin. Once winter arrives, our skin may appear dry, sensitive, and missing in that coveted dewy look.

What can we do, then, to help our skin regain?

The ever-beautiful Komal Rizvi, a celebrity with flawless skin, was the one we hooked up with to learn exactly what products we should all be using in our winter skincare routines to maintain healthy, happy skin throughout the season. She's got you covered with her go-to formulas and the ingredients we should all be looking for.

1. AVOID USING SOAPS:

Chemicals in harsh soaps irritate and dry up the skin. Body wash  with mild components should be used to prevent dryness.   One daily wash of the hands, feet, and face is adequate because repeated washings can damage the skin's protective moisture barrier. Inorder to keep skin moisturised and clean, try using TrulyKomal Jasmine Body wash for that squeaky clean yet nourished skin with a refreshing scent that lasts all day long. 

2. CREAMY CLEANSERS:

The goal of winter skincare is nourishing, and according to Komal, this process begins with your cleanser. She suggests that everyone should "cut back on stripping skincare routines and avoid double-cleansing and phthalates and paraben -based foamy cleansers" throughout the winter. She suggests using soft milky cream formulations that are rich in Aloe vera which can deeply moisturise your skin.

Komal recommends using TrulyKomal Gentle cleansing milk which is free from paraben and phthalates and is packed with the goodness of Aloe vera. It removes makeup, dirt and impurities from the skin leaving it clean and nourished.

3. ADD HYALURONIC ACID TO YOUR SKIN CARE:

As a result of its widespread appeal, hyaluronic acid is one of those compounds that skin specialists suggest year-round. You should look for it as an ingredient in your winter serums and moisturisers since skin experts refer to it as the "ideal moisturising molecule that maintains skin plumped and hydrated." One hyaluronic acid molecule can hold up to 1000 times its weight in water, so it's excellent at preventing dehydration and the dullness that comes with it. It works by aiding your skin to retain moisture. Pro tip:  Using slightly wet skin when applying hyaluronic acid products will increase its effectiveness.

Deep Hydration hyaluronic acid serum from TrulyKomal is abundant in hyaluronic acid, it is a lightweight serum, which provides intense hydration for parched skin, leaving your skin supple and hydrated.

4. SUN PROTECT YOUR SKIN:

Winters may bring shorter days, but the skin can still be harmed by the sun's harmful UV radiation, which can still pass through clouds. As a result, you should apply sunscreen with an SPF of at least 50 before going outside. UV light exposure increases the risk of cancer, photoaging, and skin damage.

5. PROTECT YOUR LIPS:

The lips need to be shielded from the elements like the skin does. To comfort your lips and stop them from drying out and cracking during the winter, choose a lip balm or moisturiser with SPF 30 or higher. A petroleum-based lip balm might be a suitable choice.

6. DAY AND NIGHT, MOISTURISE:

Be careful not to neglect your morning and evening skincare routine because cold weather can dehydrate skin. Not only facial skin, you body needs hydration too. Use TrulyKomal Brightening body lotion or Jasmine Body Lotion and apply it daily twice a day on your body to keep your skin deeply nourished.

7. USE GOOD QUALITY FACIAL OIL:

Oil-based products are usually avoided in the summer, but they are quite beneficial for your skin in the winter. Utilize a face oil that promotes radiance three times per week to ward against dullness and rehydrate the skin. For this it is recommended to use TrulyKomal MultiVitamin Face Infusion Oil.
