Elevate Your Skin This Winter

As Game of Thrones once said: winter is coming! The cool autumn breeze will soon be replaced by falling snow and blustering winds, and it’s never too early to prepare for winter skin care. The drop in humidity and moisture in the air can lead to dry, flaky skin, but we have solutions to stop dryness before it starts. Recover from your time in the summer sun and get a jump start on keeping your skin healthy and hydrated this winter!

Step 1: Reverse Sun Damage

Pool parties, beach trips, and days spent relaxing in the sun are some of summer’s best moments! We love sunbathing just as much as you do, don’t get us wrong—but all that exposure to UV rays can take a toll on your skin. Luckily, we’ve got services perfectly suited to repair sun damage and leave your skin feeling refreshed and ready to take on the cold weather.

Our VI Chemical Peel is designed to clear away a variety of blemishes, including sun damage. No matter your skin type, our expert aestheticians will ensure that this medical-grade treatment is safe and effective in clearing up freckles or dark spots caused by prolonged time in the sun. We also offer sunspot removal services to directly target and heal leftover marks from summer fun. Sunspot removal has its benefits which includes smoothing wrinkles, minimizing the appearance of scars and textural blemishes, and overall, achieving firmer and clearer skin.

Step 2: Keep Your Skin Clean

Scalding hot showers and baths may seem ideal after a day spent in the snow, but be careful! Using high water temperatures on your skin for more than 5-10 minutes can actually cause dryness and irritation, especially on your hands. As you clean up, opt for a body wash rather than bar soap, and look for washes that are fragrance-free and labeled ‘gentle’ or ‘for sensitive skin,’ as those contain more moisturizing ingredients such as oats and shea butter.

Step 3: Moisturize, Moisturize, Moisturize

Keeping your skin hydrated is just as important as keeping it clean! Without the help of natural humidity, skin can dry out even faster in the winter without proper maintenance. We recommend moisturizing your body several times a day, especially immediately after showers and before bed. While your face and hands are key focus areas, as they will be the most regularly exposed to the cold, don’t forget to use moisturizer on all parts of your body. Look for products containing hyaluronic acid for the most moisture-absorbing bang for your buck!

Step 4: Bundle Up

If you ask us, relaxing beside a warm fire with a mug of hot chocolate is the best place to be when the days get shorter and the snow starts to fall. But if you enjoy spending time outdoors during the winter, make sure to always wear gloves and a scarf to protect your face, neck, and hands from exposure to cold temperatures and prevent them from becoming dry.
