Essential care for my skin in winter

Winter brings its share of charms, but this season can also wreak havoc on our skin, leaving behind signs of dryness and discomfort. To face these winter challenges, discover the essential winter treatments designed to nourish, hydrate and protect your skin from the harsh effects of the cold.

1. A cream to nourish and protect your hands

The hands, constantly used in our daily activities, are often neglected in terms of care, which makes them particularly vulnerable to the rigors of winter. Frequent washing and direct exposure to cold can cause intense drying of the skin, which can lead to the formation of painful cracks. The skin of the hands needs additional protection to preserve its elasticity and softness. In order to combat these inconveniences, it is therefore important to always have hand cream in winter!

What are the benefits of hand cream?

Enriched with carefully selected organic ingredients, Comptoir des Huiles Hand Cream offers intense hydration while creating a protective barrier against external aggressions. By using this cream regularly, you protect your hands from the harmful effects of the cold, preserving their natural softness even in freezing weather. To prevent minor dryness, apply a hazelnut-sized amount to your hands daily. The application area can be extended to the forearm.

2. A balm to deeply repair areas damaged by the cold

Prolonged exposure to cold can cause dehydration of the skin, disrupting its natural moisture balance. Low temperatures tend to reduce skin blood circulation, which reduces the production of sebum, our precious lipid barrier. Result: drier, duller skin, prone to tightness and irritation. Applying a balm is essential to repair and intensely nourish the skin and its areas that are very damaged by the cold.

Why apply a balm rather than a cream?

Balms tend to be thicker and richer in oils than creams. They are often used to seal in moisture, making them an ideal choice for dry or very dry skin. Their richer texture helps soothe and intensely nourish the skin.
The secret of Baume Comptoir des Huiles lies in its richness in Baobab oil, a natural ingredient with exceptional moisturizing/nourishing properties. This balm instantly soothes dry areas, restoring your skin's radiance and suppleness despite the rigors of the cold season.

3. A day cream to moisturize your skin daily

The delicate skin of the face is often the most exposed to external aggressions. Rosy cheeks are often a sign that the skin is struggling to maintain moisture. Additionally, exposure to cold wind can aggravate pre-existing skin conditions, such as rosacea or eczema, leading to increased irritation. In winter, it is important to moisturize the skin on your face daily in order to offer it protection against external aggressions.

Why apply a day cream?

Hydration is essential for healthy skin because it helps prevent dryness, tightness and fine lines. A day cream provides a protective layer that can help maintain skin health. The light, non-greasy texture of Comptoir des Huiles Day Cream makes it an ideal choice for daily use, leaving skin soft, supple and ready to face the winter cold. Your skin will be optimally hydrated for immediate comfort. The fatty acids and vitamin E contained in the Day Cream fight against all forms of aggression responsible for premature aging of the skin!

You understand, in winter don't forget to adopt the essential care for your skin: a Hand Cream, a Balm for very dry areas and a Day Cream for your face. You'll give your skin the protection it needs to stay radiant and glowing, even when the temperature drops. Choose natural for beauty that lasts all seasons.
