It’s suddenly the time for snuggles, soft winterwears and those extra cups of tea as the winter approaches but for many of us the breeze may carry worry too. So if you’re someone who doesn’t like how winters make your skin dull, dry and flaky, we got your back. We visited Dr. Anshul Jain, our most credible and time tested dermatologist to help us navigate effectively through the winter skincare with our array of questions!
Do I really need to change my skincare routine for winters?
Absolutely yes. It is always suggested to be conscious and mindful of the products (natural or cosmetic) we apply on our skin as the requirements of your skin changes with the environment. The winters are naturally dry and lower temperatures intend higher damage and need to be addressed specifically.
Is moisturizer enough for skincare, and can I apply it even if I have oily skin?
Moisturizers are essential. Even in winters. And it largely depends on your skin type. Whether your skin needs moisture infusing products or the one that helps you retain your natural moisture. And it’s definitely not, thicker the moisturizer better the result approach that will work, rather winter calls for you to visit your dermatologist once and assess exactly what your skin might need for the season.
What type of serums should one adopt in winters?
A moisture enriching serum assists in treating a few of the skin concerns thus making your skin repair and glow naturally. Hence using a serum might be a good idea unless you have undergone any treatment previously, which might need objective assessment. Otherwise serums like hyaluronic acid, vitamin E etc are great to be added in your skin care essentials.
As a dermatologist what are the cosmetic procedures you would suggest for the ones who wish to get sustained glowing skin this season?
Although there are many advanced processes for one to choose, I will vouch for the highly effective Blue Toning Laser,if you’re intending to combat blemishes, uneven skill or even dull skin. And my second bet is with Hydrating Hydrafacial, as it not only deep cleanse & exfoliate but also intensely moisturizes your skin. Making these two your perfect winter skin care investments for healthy glowing skin.
