So How Does Winter Affect Your Skin?

Moisturiser : These are non-negotiable! Look for one with ingredients like:
- Hyaluronic acid: Keeps your skin hydrated.
- Ceramides: Helps lock in natural oils.
Sunscreen : I know the sun feels cute in winter, but science doesn’t take a vacation! Sun rays can still harm your skin, so better to be safe than sun-sorry
Lip Balm: For those Chapped lips, No excuses, just grab a good lip balm and keep your pout protected.
Warm (Not Hot) Water : This one sucks because i know Long hot baths are tempting, but hot water doesn’t just strip stress, it strips oils from your skin too. Stick to lukewarm water for a smarter choice.
