From indulging in a luxurious bath to seeking out a specialized dry-skin moisturizer, there are several ways to address dry skin in cold weather. Short showers using lukewarm water, exfoliating once a week, opting for gentle cleansers instead of bar soaps, and applying appropriate ointments or creams right after bathing are all gentle ways to address dry and chapped skin. Sometimes, our skin needs a little additional TLC, especially after braving the freezing temperatures day after day.

In this blog we will provide you with the best skincare products on the market that will act as your little helpers throughout the long, cold months of winter. Make dry, rough skin a distant memory with these incredible skincare formulas.

1. Balancing Exfoliators

When you are looking to completely recondition your skin, there are no better products than those created by Biologique Recherche. Their Lotion P50 line acts as a multifunctional product that exfoliates, cleanses, and purifies the layers of the skin. When the skin is purified and cleared of all the dead skin cells that build up over time, it is finally able to maintain its ideal pH balance. 

The two main formulas in Biologique Recherche’s Lotion P50 line consist of products with phenol and products without phenol. The Lotion P50V 1970 product contains a compound called phenol. Phenols are naturally occurring compounds found in certain plants that offer a number of biological benefits for the human biome. Studies have shown that when humans ingest or apply products containing phenols on their skin, they can alleviate symptoms and inhibit the development of various skin disorders. They have been proven effective in eliminating the causes and effects of skin aging, skin diseases, and even damage to the skin, like wounds and burns.

2. Hydrating Creams

When it comes to treating dry, cracked skin in the winter months, the best, go-to solution is and will always be, the utilization of ultra-hydrating creams. There is no better product line available on the market today, other than the hydrating creams created by Biologique Recherche. Two of our favorite Biologique Recherche products to heal dry skin are the Creme Hydravit and the Creme Masque Vernix.

Once you try Biologique Recherche’s Creme Hydravit’s, you will never want to use another moisturizer again. By utilizing only the best ingredients available in the skincare industry, it deeply penetrates every layer of the skin creating hydration that is felt instantly and is long-lasting.

If you’re looking for a product that can offer a similar experience to having a professional cosmetic treatment done, Biologique Recherche’s Creme Masque Vernix will be your new favorite product. With the word vernix in its name (the protective coating surrounding a baby in the uterus) after using this product, your skin will be left feeling like a newborn’s. This revitalizing, regenerating and protective formula that can be used as a mask or a daily moisturizer, is created with antioxidants, proteins and lipids. 

3. Vitamin and Antioxidant Rich Serums

We all know the importance of antioxidants in helping the body reduce the harmful effects of free radicals. Research has shown that free radicals have a significant influence on the aging process and that antioxidants and other nutrients are the first line of defense against these harmful elements.

During the winter months, it can be difficult to get the antioxidants and vitamins you need to keep your skin and body healthy. With Environ Skincare’s line of Youth EssentiA products, your skin will receive the nutrients necessary to create healthy, youthful skin. 

If you’re looking for a product that will reduce the visible signs of aging while preventing the effects of free radical damage, Environ’s Antioxidant Defence Cream will answer all your prayers. The formula is rich in vitamins and antioxidants, including Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and Rosemary Leaf Extract which protects the skin against harmful UV rays which are still around in the winter months.
