My dry skin fam, we know the struggle is real. That is the most elegant way in which I can express my distaste for my dry, flaky, tight, irritated, hyper sensitive skin at this point. The winter does a number to my skin & I know there are many who can relate. With all the trial & error, I am going to share all the skincare tips that will help you protect, hydrate and nourish your skin(thank me later!)
#1 Avoid drying cleansers
During the winter it’s essential that you use a cleanser that DOES NOT DRY YOUR SKIN! As a matter of fact you should never use a drying cleanser. Cleansers that strip your skin of it’s natural oils will cause instant dryness, damage to the moisture barrier and a tight uncomfortable feeling. When shopping for a cleanser look for a cleanser without drying properties such as sulphates(SLS/SLES), parabens and alcohol.
Detox Facial Cleanser is what your skin craves this winter, it has none of the harmful ingredients aforementioned & won’t strip your skin of it’s natural oils(you most definitely need!) Detox helps remove impurities and pollutants that can cause premature aging. Formulated with incredibly nourishing, anti-aging ingredients such as Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids, Inca Inchi, Grapeseed Extract(antioxidant). Detox will not only remove your makeup, deep cleanse but it will leave your skin buttery soft.
Use: Morning & Night
#2 Buff away dead skin cells
The combination of the cold air to the warm heat indoors can lead to dryness causing more than usual dead skin. Exfoliation is key to replenishing your skin, not only will your skin appear brighter & smoother, it will also ensure your moisturizer actually absorbs into your skin as opposed to sitting on top of dead skin!

#3 Add an oil to your skincare
Oil’s are an excellent addition to your skincare, they are nourishing, hydrating and absorb immediately into your skin.
