Caring for your skin in winter

In winter the skin loses moisture on two fronts: the cold wind outside and the dry, heated air indoors. Here is what to change in your routine.

A gentler cleanser

Swap the foaming gel for a cleansing milk or cream and wash your face with lukewarm, not hot, water.

A richer cream

A light summer fluid is often not enough. Use a richer cream in the evening and one with SPF in the morning — winter sun leaves its mark too, especially in the mountains.

A facial at the salon

Once every month or two, a hydrating facial at the salon brings back freshness and prepares the skin for your home care. The beautician will tell you which products to use at home.
