This article is here to help prevent the not-so-nice side effects winter can have on our precious skin. Below are my top 3 product recommendations as well as more information on our limited-edition, brand new Winter Rescue Facial – let’s keep your skin flake-free, healthy, and glowing all season long.
Why does our skin change so much during winter?
Winter is the toughest time of year for our skin and when it needs the most TLC. While I don’t recommend baking in the sun, natural light plays an important role in our overall health – including skin health. During the darker, gloomier months, our bodies miss that light more than we realise.
On top of that, we’re constantly moving between heated homes, cars, and shops, while spending far less time outdoors. This combination of dry heat, cold air, and reduced light can leave skin feeling dehydrated, dull, and more sensitive than usual.
Why are facials so important during the winter?
Facials are beneficial all year round, but they’re especially important during winter. Cold weather and indoor heating can leave skin drier, more reactive, and easily irritated – which makes winter the worst time to skip your treatments.
Regular professional facials help maintain hydration, support the skin barrier, and keep cell turnover on track when the skin is under seasonal stress.
Why shouldn’t we let our skin dry out in winter?
Dry skin is unhealthy skin. It often shows up as sensitivity, tightness, flakiness, or a buildup of dull, dead skin.
In healthy skin, cell turnover – the process of new skin forming from within – takes around 28 days. As we age and face environmental stressors like winter weather, this process slows down, leading to rough texture, dehydration, and lacklustre skin.
What is our exclusive Winter Rescue Facial?
Our limited-edition Winter Rescue Facial combines the brand new Alumier MD HydraRescue Bio-Cellulose sheet mask and specialist hydrating and calming skincare with Dermalux Tri-wave MD LED phototherapy to nourish, calm, and revive winter-stressed skin.
Why did we design the Winter Rescue Facial?
Because it truly ticks all the boxes. The Winter Rescue Facial is designed to exfoliate, hydrate, and repair the skin – without pain or discomfort. It’s deeply relaxing and perfect for this harsh, dull time of year when you and your skin need extra care.
