Sensation of discomfort, desquates and dull complexion, winter is not the most glamorous season for the skin. But why does our skin suffer as much from the cold ? and how to protect it, keep a comfortable skin and a luminous complexion ?
Facing the cold, our body will do everything in order to limit heat loss and maintain body temperature.
For this it will decrease the diameter of the blood vessels of the skin tissue, which will cause a decrease in sebum production and a slowdown in cell activity of the skin. The hydrolipidic film is found unbalanced and no longer ensures its function of protective shield in the face of external aggressions but also against the evaporation of water present in the skin favoring its dehydration, the phenomenon is also accentuated by the dry air of heated interiors.
Skin dryness: The cold and dry air, combined with inner heating, causes skin dehydration. This results in a feeling of tightness, redness and rough skin that can peel.
Atopic dermatitis: People with sensitive or atopic skin can experience eczema thrusts, with itching, red plates and a significant desquamation. Extreme drought makes skin more vulnerable to irritation and infections.
Winter acne: Paradoxically, some people may suffer from an increase in acne in winter. This is due to an overproduction of sebum to compensate for drought, which can obstruct pores.
Lips Gécées: The lips are particularly exposed to cold and can dry out quickly, causing chappers and discomfort.
Rosaceae and erythema : Cold can exacerbate redness and irritation, especially in people with rosacea, making their skin more reactive.
What a treatment routine to adopt in winter ?
Sweet cleaning & richer hydration
The skin being already weakened, it is important to adopt soft cleaners. alcohol -free micellar water or a soap -free cleaner are ideal for daily facial cleaning. Avoid overly aggressive cleaners which would risk altering the already weakened hydrolipid film.
As for the moisturizer, in order to compensate for the reduction in sebum production, it will be necessary to opt for a slightly richer formula that that usually applied. The prior application of a serum is entirely indicated during this period because it allows the skin hydration rate to be restored in addition to the other benefits specific to each serum.

Ce gel douche - exempt de substance nocive ou perturbateur endocrinien (score Yuka excellent de 86/100) - apporte beaucoup de fraîcheur pour le corps et les cheveux. Comme il est très concentré, il n'y a pas besoin d'en mettre beaucoup. Je le trouve particulièrement agréable après le sport.
Merci beaucoup pour votre avis! En effet, nos gels douches sont très denses, donc très économiques à l'utilisation!
Merci pour votre avis! En effet le Sérum a une concentration un peu plus forte en actifs et l'huile d'amande prend un peu le dessus! Il reste cependant tout aussi efficace!
Mielicime convient parfaitement à ma peau qui a tendance à être asséchée par la natation. Elle hydrate rapidement et soulage des tiraillements. Elle est onctueuse, facile à appliquer, et pas trop parfumée.
Téo triathlète.
