Winter can be especially tricky for those with acne-prone, oily skin. While the colder months bring drier air, your skin might still be overproducing sebum in response to dehydration and sensitivity, leading to breakouts or worsening existing ones. Balancing hydration while keeping oiliness in check is key to maintaining a healthy complexion during this season. Here are three essential tips, and the perfect products to make them happen.
Start with a Gentle, Balancing Cleanser
Harsh cleansers that strip the skin of its natural oils can actually worsen oiliness by causing your skin to overcompensate. Instead, look for a gentle cleanser that effectively removes excess sebum and impurities while respecting your skin’s moisture barrier. Regular cleansing also helps prevent clogged pores, a common issue when oil and dryness mix.
For a cleanser that checks all these boxes, Lait S.R. is a perfect choice. Its lightweight formula purifies, clears excess oil, and leaves the skin feeling fresh without disrupting its balance.
Recover with Targeted Treatments
Winter dryness and environmental stress can make acne-prone skin more sensitive, resulting in inflammation, redness, and difficulty healing post-breakout marks. To soothe irritation and encourage skin repair, incorporate treatments rich in healing and calming ingredients. These products should focus on reducing redness and promoting cell renewal.
Serum ISO-Placenta fits seamlessly into this routine with its biomimetic placenta ingredient, which helps regenerate skin and restore its natural glow.
Hydrate and Protect
Even oily skin needs hydration, especially during winter when cold winds and indoor heating can strip your skin of essential moisture. Choose a lightweight, mattifying moisturizer that nourishes without clogging pores or leaving a greasy finish. Moisturizers with calming and purifying properties can also help prevent blemishes while providing the hydration your skin needs to stay healthy.
Crème Dermopurifiante offers the perfect balance, delivering moisture while purifying and soothing the skin to keep it matte and clear.
Don’t let the dry air fool you into skipping these essential steps! By tweaking your skincare routine to address the specific challenges of winter, you can keep your oily, acne-prone skin balanced and thriving. Hydration and gentle care through the season can help keep your skin free of irritation and worsening breakouts.
