Skin-saving tips for healthy, glowing winter skin

It’s true, we have a love-hate relationship with our cool friend, winter. We love the excuse to stay in and binge watch our favourite Netflix shows but we dislike that it plays havoc on our skin. Harsh winds, dry air, and chilly temps have arrived and the battle for healthy, glowing skin officially begins.

If there’s one season taking the crown for its ability to insanely reduce hydration levels, it’s winter. But, with the right products, you can keep the drying effect at bay with your glow still intact. Ready to glow for it? We’ve got all of the skin-saving tips and products you’ll need!

Harmony’s 5 top tips

1. Use a heavy-duty HYDRATOR: Sub-zero temperatures certainly call for a rich moisturiser

Moisturisers like the O Cosmedics Comfort Cream or a treatment serum such as their Youth Activating Oil Balm. Both products help to repair the skin barrier, keeping it nourished, hydrated and plumped. Tick! O COSMEDICS

Australia’s number one Cosmedical active skincare range, O Cosmedics is formulated with the highest respect for the skin and designed to fight the causes of ageing, correct serious skin conditions, and ultimately result in skin health, youth, and confidence.

2. Try using an OIL: Restore the skin’s natural oil balance

Is your tried-and-true cleanser leaving you a little dry? The Ginger&ME Nutri Luxe Cleanser, is a gentle and nutrient-rich oil cleanser made with Grape Seed and Avocado Oil. It gently removes all traces of makeup, dirt and pollutants whilst restoring the skin’s natural oil balance.

3. Bring on the RADIANCE: Restore skin vitality and radiance

Ever notice how your complexion can look a little dull after a few weeks of bearing the elements? You'll sleep easy this winter benefiting from a deep, invigorating exfoliant like the O Cosmedics Exfoliating Cleanser or the Ginger&ME Power Exfoliant, each work to restore skin vitality and radiance when used once a week.

4. Reveal with a PEEL: Your secret weapon to maintaining a light-catching surface

As the temperature dips, your skin responds by slowing cell turnover, which dials down skin radiance. The power couple punch of an exfoliating peel followed by a facial oil.

The peel sloughs away dullness caused by dead cells, then boosts the penetration of any hydrator. Plus, because oils are emollient, they both protect the skin and soothe irritation. Reach for the O Cosmedics Corrective Cleanser & Peel matched with their Vitamin C Hemp Seed Oil - liquid gold!

5. Reach for RETINOL: Powerful skin ingredient

Your skin also needs "strengthening and glow-building" help now more than ever! By speeding up skin cell turnover, this powerful skin ingredient has the ability to unclog pores, fade pigmentation and minimise the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Reduce the initial irritation by choosing a moisture-filled formula like Retinal Active by Dp Dermaceuticals and your complexion will thank you come spring.
