Winter Skin Care Essentials 

As we approach the height of winter, you may notice dry, itchy skin and a lack of radiance - these are common winter skin concerns but with a few essentials you can change this

The constant mix of cold weather and toasty central heating can wreak havoc on your skin this time of year. 

Making a few simple tweaks to your routine can help to lock in hydration, reduce inflammation and redness and keep your skin protected. 

LOCK IN MOISTURE

When you have your morning shower (or bath) make sure the temperature isn’t too hot as this can dry out your skin and contribute to the yo-yo temperature changing we just mentioned. 

Make sure you apply your moisturiser whilst your skin is damp, this helps to lock in the moisture and If you’re plagued by various dryness during the cold winter months, then the concept of “locking in moisture” is especially essential for preventing cracking, scaliness, and irritation.

GO FOR RICH TEXTURES

Marine Miracle is our super rich, luxurious wonder cream that can be used day and night for an intense, revitalised effect. 

USE MARINE INGREDIENTS

​​Sea salt is an exfoliant with a healing and detoxifying effect on the skin. It absorbs dirt, impurities and toxins to deeply cleanse. Sea salt is extracted from seawater to provide an ingredient high in minerals, such as; magnesium, calcium and potassium. Another added benefit, especially in winter, is It also helps improve the texture of skin and its hydration.
