Winter in Australia, is the season when your skin craves a little extra TLC. As temperatures drop and heaters crank up, the air becomes drier, leading to dehydrated, flaky, and sensitive skin. Cold air, low humidity, and indoor heating can strip your skin of its natural moisture, leading to dryness, redness, and irritation. The skin's barrier function weakens, making it more susceptible to environmental stressors. We’ve curated your perfect winter skincare essentials to keep your complexion radiant, no matter the weather!
During winter, many notice the appearance of fine lines, especially around the forehead and mouth. If you're in your 20s or early 30s, these lines are often not true wrinkles but dehydration lines, a sign that your skin is craving moisture. Before considering treatments like Botox, it's essential to focus on rehydrating your skin.
Incorporating hydrating serums and nourishing moisturisers into your daily routine can make a significant difference! Start your skincare routine with our gentle hydration hero cleanser, the Dr. Spiller Aloe Sensitive Cleansing Milk formulated with Aloe Vera and Arginine. This cleanser gently removes impurities while calming reactive and irritated skin. Its milk-based texture ensures that your skin's pH balance remains intact, leaving it soft and supple.
Give your skin a nightly boost with the Bottao Evening Serum, formulated with encapsulated Vitamins A, B3 (Niacinamide), C, and E. These powerhouse ingredients target uneven tone, dehydration, and fine lines while you sleep. Pair it with the Bottao Morning Serum, and you have over 26% active ingredients working in harmony to deliver everything your skin needs as the temperature drops.
Combat winter-induced skin sagging with a collagen-rich cream. Collagen helps maintain skin elasticity and hydration, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Regular use can lead to firmer, plumper skin, making it an essential in your winter skincare routine.
Extra TLC: Want to take things a step further? Treatments like hydrating facials, RF Needling, and Skin Needling. These stimulate cell turnover, remove dull surface layers, and boost serum absorption leaving your skin refreshed, renewed, and deeply nourished.
