Top Winter Skincare Swaps for your Anti-Ageing Regime

As the weather transitions, it's important to adjust your skincare routine to meet the changing needs of your skin. Winter brings colder temperatures and lower humidity, which can lead to dryness, flakiness, and other signs of ageing. Here are 5 skincare tips to maintain a youthful and radiant complexion during the winter months:

1. Switch to a Moisturising Cleanser

As the air gets drier, your skin may also become dehydrated. Switch to a moisturising cleanser that can remove impurities without stripping away natural oils. Our Pick? Dragon’s Blood 3-in-1 Treatment Cleanser, the oil foaming formula gently exfoliates with a blend of natural aha fruit extracts while honey and meadowfoam seed oil keep skin soft & moisturised.

2. Add a Hydrating Serum

To combat the dryness that comes with winter, add a hydrating serum to your skincare routine. Look for serums that contain hyaluronic acid to help boost hydration levels. The POLYGLUTAMIC+ Intensive Hydration Serum is our top pick this winter.

3. Incorporate a Retinoid

Retinoids are a powerhouse ingredient when it comes to anti-ageing. They can help to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and age spots, and can also improve skin texture and tone. As the days get shorter and the sun's UV rays become less intense, winter is the perfect time to incorporate a retinoid into your skincare routine. The Dragon’s Blood Retinol Sleep Serum is a potent, low irritation option.

4. Don't Forget the Eye Cream

The delicate skin around the eyes is one of the first areas to show signs of ageing. Keep this area looking youthful by using an eye cream that contains antioxidants, peptides, and/or caffeine. These ingredients can help to reduce puffiness, dark circles, and fine lines. Try the CAFFEINE+ Multi-Benefit Eye Serum, alternatively, the Advance SUPERLIFT Eye Contouring Serum is a nourishing 360-degree option for delicate maturing skin.

5. Incorporate a Mask to Boost Hydration

incorporating a hydrating mask into your weekly regimen can provide an extra boost of moisture to combat dry winter air. Look for masks with ingredients that help replenish the skin's moisture barrier like the Dragon’s Blood Hydration Maximiser Soothing Gel Mask, The Advance Superlift Deep Hydration Liftings Masks,or the Oxygen-C Ultra Hydrating Velvet Mask.

Make these winter skincare swaps to ensure your anti-ageing regime remains effective throughout the colder months. By adjusting your routine to address the specific needs of your skin during winter, you can maintain a youthful, radiant complexion all season long.
