Winter Skincare Tips for WNY: Hydrate, Protect, Glow

ashley9277

Winter in Western New York can be magical, but the cold temperatures, dry air, and harsh winds are no friends to our skin. The key to maintaining a radiant, healthy complexion during the colder months is all about hydration, protection, and a little extra TLC. Here are our top winter skincare tips to help you hydrate, protect, and glow all season long.

1. Hydrate Inside and Out

The winter air tends to zap moisture from your skin, leaving it feeling tight, dry, and sometimes flaky. To combat this:

  • Drink More Water: Even though you might not feel as thirsty in the winter, your skin still needs hydration from the inside. Aim for 8 glasses of water daily.

  • Use a Hydrating Cleanser: Replace foaming cleansers with a cream-based cleanser like Skinscript’s Pomegranate Antioxidant Cleanser. It’s packed with antioxidants and hydrating ingredients that cleanse without stripping your skin.

  • Layer on a Moisturizer: Opt for richer creams to lock in moisture. The Skinscript Acai Berry Moisturizer is a winter must-have, offering deep hydration while calming dry, irritated skin.

2. Protect Your Skin Barrier

Your skin’s barrier is its first line of defense against the elements. Keep it strong and healthy with these tips:

  • Don’t Skip SPF: Just because it’s cold doesn’t mean UV rays are taking a break. Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily, like Skinscript’s Sheer Protection SPF 30.

  • Gentle Exfoliation: Over-exfoliating can weaken your skin barrier. Instead, use gentle options like the Skinscript Raspberry Refining Scrub once or twice a week to remove dead skin without irritation.

  • Invest in Barrier-Boosting Treatments: Winter is the perfect time to indulge in professional skincare treatments that repair and protect your skin.

3. Glow with Professional Care

Winter is an ideal season to pamper your skin with professional facials tailored to combat dryness and dullness. Our Chocolate Covered Strawberry Facial is a sweet treat for your skin, featuring:

  • Cocoa Enzyme: This gentle anti-inflammatory enzyme contains natural antioxidants and a sweet cocoa aroma designed to nourish, protect and boost healing for any skin type.

  • Super Berry Antioxidant Mask: A unique combination of exotic berries from the Australian Outback, partnered with the exfoliating properties of Lactic and Mandelic acids, is designed to nourish, moisturize, and brighten skin for a healthy and radiant appearance.

As an added bonus, when you book this facial during January or February, you’ll receive a FREE Skinscript Ageless Lip Treatment to keep your lips soft and hydrated through the winter months.




4. Focus on Your Lips and Hands

Lips and hands are often overlooked but can be the first to show signs of winter stress.

  • Hydrate Your Lips: Use a nourishing lip balm like Skinscript’s Ageless Lip Treatment daily to prevent cracking and dryness.

  • Treat Your Hands: Apply a thick hand cream after washing and before bed. For extra care, wear cotton gloves overnight after applying the cream.

5. Make Your Home Skin-Friendly

The dry indoor air from heating systems can dehydrate your skin quickly. Combat this by:

  • Using a Humidifier: This adds moisture back into the air, helping your skin stay hydrated.

  • Lowering Shower Temperatures: Hot showers feel great but can strip your skin of natural oils. Stick to lukewarm water and follow up with a moisturizer immediately.


Stay Radiant This Winter

Winter skincare doesn’t have to be complicated, but it does require some extra care. By focusing on hydration, protection, and indulging in a little pampering, you can keep your skin glowing all season long. Don’t forget to book your Chocolate Covered Strawberry Facial today to treat yourself and your skin!
