I have never shared my regular skin routine with you guys or any skincare really but I have dry skin, so dry it’s impossible to get acne. My winter skin care routine is not that different from my regular routine, except I have to consistently perform my winter skincare routine or suffer!
For my Face
- I wash with a gentle cleanser like Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser at the beginning of the day or Garnier SkinActive Micellar Foaming Face Wash at the end of the day to remove makeup.
- Then I use Peter Thomas Roth Water Drench (this does wonders for me)
- *When using makeup I add Burt’s Bees Complete Nourishment Facial Oil to my foundation and proceed as normal.
For my Skin
- I don’t shower with hot water ever, lukewarm and pretty much closer to cold. I use a moisturizing body wash or soap such as dove. I do keep my showers short because the itching gets intense afterward. However long warm baths with oils do wonders for me.
- I have been back and forth with this and it’s a constant experiment my skin acts differently each year, to be honest. I have been applying vitamin e oil after showering. I generally don’t always like dealing with the oil, especially with certain clothing items because it leaves an oil stain. I do plan on trying out body butter and products from the body shop and I’ll update you guys on that.
- For my hands that also get incredibly dry, I use No-Crack Super Hand Cream (Purchased at Duluth Trading Co.)
