Three cosmetics to better withstand the effects of the cold

BarcelonaThe changing seasons arrive inexorably, leaving behind the mild temperatures of autumn and making way for winter. The lower temperatures of this approaching season also mean changes in our beauty routines, as our skin, in accordance with the climate, also requires different care. This affects the skin on our face, but also the skin on our body and hair. To prevent winter from taking its toll, these cosmetics can be a great help:

Body Butter

When the cold weather arrives, a moisturizer may not be enough. For this reason, Moroccanoil, the brand specializing in argan oil, has created a rich, fast-absorbing moisturizer to intensely hydrate and soften dry skin without leaving any greasy residue. The formula of this body butter It contains a combination of argan oil, shea butter, and cocoa, designed to provide the skin with abundant nourishment and long-lasting hydration. It also contains hyaluronic acid to attract and retain moisture and improve skin texture. Beyond its formula, this fragrance is also distinguished by its unmistakable scent: a combination of spicy amber and sweet floral notes.

'Flash' effect

A good option for nourished and hydrated, yet non-sticky, facial skin is to use serums instead of creams. If the serum in question is enriched with next-generation peptides and exosomes, the results will be amplified. This is the reasoning behind Veralab's formulation of their Exopeptide serum, which has a dual action. First, it smooths the skin's surface, leaving it velvety and boosting its radiance. Then, in the medium term, it activates the synthesis of the 20 types of collagen that make up the skin's structural ecosystem. One of its active ingredients is... hyaluronic-hybrid-peptideThis patented hybrid chemically and physically fuses two collagen-boosting peptides with low-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid. It also contains peptide-rich exosomes and resveratrol. It's formulated to be worn as a makeup base. For those long days of winter when your skin needs a little boost to finish the season strong, this could be a great product.

Powerful (but gentle) cleaner

Spending all day applying creams because our skin is so dry from the cold, or wearing makeup to conceal the redness caused by the cold weather, means that at some point during the day we'll need to thoroughly cleanse our face. This is especially true if we're over fifty. For this specific purpose, the Japanese brand Tatcha has launched The Rice Wash, a gentle yet effective cleanser that leaves skin clean without irritating it. The goal of this cleanser is to leave skin visibly revitalized and radiant thanks to a product that doesn't lather as much as usual, but provides greater comfort. They are convinced that "overly clean" skin is not synonymous with health, but often with dehydration. Mature skin needs moisturizing and lipid-repairing agents, and this product achieves this by avoiding harsh sulfates and incorporating ingredients such as Okinawan algae, hyaluronic acid, and rice extracts.
