Seasonal Skincare: Adjusting Your Routine for Summer, Winter, and Everything in Between

When it comes to transeasonal skincare, we have two keywords: hydration and balance. As winter is approaching, let’s talk about what we can do to keep our skin stable and healthy through the seasonal changes.

These include dry skin, skin irritation, inflammation and allergic reactions. Before you feel worried about your skin and try to do something to it, remember two things:

1. Listen to your skin;
2. Always adjust your skincare routines and products based on your skin needs through the seasonal changes.

In general, when it comes to winter, most people will feel their skin becoming ‘tightened’ or more sensitive – This is because your natural skin barrier is weakened due to the cooler weather conditions with less moisture and more dryness. Therefore, your skin will be giving you signals that it needs hydration via signs of dry skin or irritated skin.

Whereas in summer, your skin might feel ‘heavier’ due to the higher temperature and humid conditions, as a result, it shows signs of getting oily easily, or having breakouts. Your skin is telling you that it needs a break from heavy skincare products.

Don’t worry, these are all common skin issues. We just need to listen to our skin and get the balance that it needs. Read on to know how you can adjust your skincare routine.

When your skin is having a reaction, such as irritation or inflammation, you should always go easy on the products you use. Avoid over nourishing your skin with heavy chemicals (That’s why we love natural ingredients!). Use a gentle cleanser and reduce the products you use. Limit it to just a toner and an easily-absorbed moisturiser, or a lightweight serum, whatever that makes your skin feel hydrated without getting too heavy. Start with 1-2 products only to make your skin recover and reset from the seasonal reaction, then gradually add more products to hydrate your skin further if needed.

When your skin feels dry, or even starts peeling – Start masking! Make sure you use masks that include hydration-restoring ingredients such as hyaluronic acid. Feed your skin with moisture until it feels plump, however, we suggest 1-2 masks per week only otherwise your skin might get ‘overfed’. You should also consider switching to a more nourishing moisturiser in your daily skincare routine.

Explore and find out what suits you. We recommend having a lightweight serum for summer, and a nourishing serum for winter. If your skin gets oily easily, consider using a lighter moisturiser in the morning, and only use a more nourishing moisturiser during nighttime.

Our Hydrating Moisturiser contains marine collagen and hyaluronic acid, which are perfect for your day-to-day hydration and making your skin feel plump. Our research result has shown that our unique formula in the moisturiser can nourish skin with a non-greasy texture and can be used everyday to achieve a long-term nourishing effect. Combine it with our Day Serum and Night Serum for your skin to combat external skin pollutants through the day and repair and regenerate through the night.
