As winter months approach, many people experience dry, flaky skin due to cold, dry air. Understanding how skin gets dry in the winter and the importance of hydration is crucial to maintaining healthy skin during this season.
Why does skin get dry in the winter?
During the winter, humidity levels drop significantly, leading to a lack of moisture in the air. Low humidity, combined with cold temperatures and harsh winds, can strip the skin of its natural oils, leaving it dry and dehydrated. Additionally, indoor heating further contributes to dry skin by reducing the moisture in the air.
How can you protect your skin with hydration?
Hydration is key to combating dry skin in winter months. Using products that provide intense moisture and lock it in can help replenish the skin's barrier and prevent moisture loss. Products like LILY + MIEL's HYDRA, B5 Vitamin serum, and our SLEEP overnight mask are specifically formulated to hydrate and nourish skin.
HYDRA - hyaluronic acid serum is a lightweight serum that deeply hydrates, attracting and retaining up to 1000 times its weight in water. This helps plump and hydrate skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Our B5 Vitamin serum is enriched with vitamin B5, also known as panthenol, which helps to improve the skin's natural barrier function and lock in moisture. This serum is perfect for replenishing dry, dehydrated skin and restoring a healthy glow.
