1. Cleanse Gently
When cleansing your skin of makeup and dirt, make sure to do so gently without stripping it of its natural oils. Cleansing milk is a great choice to cleanse with as it is nourishing and not overly drying.
Swirlster Says: Get the Organic Harvest Cleansing which balances sebum secretion in dry as well as oily skin. It is available for Rs 436 from Rs 545. Shop here.
2. Treat While You Sleep
Swap your night serum for a night cream during winter. It is thicker in consistency and richer to nourish even the driest skin through the night.
Swirlster Says: Get the Oriflame Royal Velvet Repairing Night Cream which repairs and improves skin firmness. It is available for Rs 645 from Rs 1,499. Shop here.
3. Slather Up
Body lotion may have done you good all summer but your body now needs something a bit stronger. Body butter is of a thicker consistency for a deeper level of nourishment to treat winter skin.
Swirlster Says: Get the Kama Ayurveda Kokum & Almond Body Butter which increases elasticity and relieves dryness. It is available for Rs 1,495. Shop here.
4. Get Handsy
During the cold season, skin on the hands peeling, cracking and flaking is a common problem which a rich hand cream can treat easily.
Swirlster Says: Get the Dot & Key Hand Cream which sanitises and moisturises dry hands at the same time. It is available for Rs 335 from Rs 395. Shop here.
5. Exfoliate Lightly
Instead of choosing scrubbing mitts and grainy exfoliators, use chemical exfoliants this season. They peel off dead cells and dull skin with the help of chemical compounds within the formula.
Swirlster Says: Get The Body Shop Vitamin C Liquid Peel which reveals glowing skin with its vitamin rich formula. It is available for Rs 2,225 from Rs 2,450. Shop here.
