Why this worksChanging weather can impact your skin's hydration and barrier function. In warmer months, the skin may produce more oil, while colder months can lead to dryness. Adjusting your routine helps maintain balance and keeps your skin looking its best all year round.

The ritual, step by step

  1. Start with a Gentle Cleanser Use a mild cleanser that won’t strip your skin of moisture. Look for something hydrating, especially as temperatures drop.
  2. Incorporate a Hydrating Serum Choose a serum rich in hydration boosters like hyaluronic acid. This helps lock in moisture and plumps the skin, making it ideal for transitioning weather.
  3. Moisturise Wisely Select a moisturiser that suits your skin type. In colder months, a thicker cream can help seal in moisture, while a lighter lotion may be perfect for warmer weather.
  4. Don’t Forget Sunscreen Even on cloudy days, UV rays can affect your skin. Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen every morning to protect against environmental damage.

Where people go wrong

Many people forget to adjust their moisturiser as the seasons change, leading to dryness or breakouts. Others may skip sunscreen on cloudy days, thinking it’s unnecessary. Always remember to patch-test new products to avoid irritation.

The pro moveConsider adding a facial oil to your routine for extra nourishment, especially in dry weather.
