How to get through winter safely

with your sensitive, dry or atopic skin?

Why does the skin dry out during winter? Why is it more sensitive and less comfortable? But above all, what can you do everyday to limit the impact of cold on your skin, whether it is atopic, reactive or simply reactive?

IN THE COLD

When temperature drops, our body reacts to protect us and our behavior changes. What are the impacts on our skin?

Our skin: the first barrier against heat loss

Our skin has to change the way it operates when it gets cold, creating a barrier against low temperatures. In particular, the sebaceous glands produce less sebum when temperature drops, with 2 main consequences:

• Our skin dries out

• Our body becomes more vulnerable to exterior aggressions, like pollution, allergies, or metals, sebum having an antibacterial action and acting as a “cement” between our skin cells

Cold weather changes our lifestyle

During winter, we spend more time indoors, in heated environments, where the air is drier: our skin gets dehydrated.

Tip #1

Moisturize, Moisturize, Moisturize!

As we have seen, the cold amplifies the dehydration of the epidermis while decreasing the natural production of skin lipids. Therefore, during winter it is important to:

Moisturize your skin daily, especially your face, which is more exposed to cold

Restore lipid levels by applying essential fatty acids

Tip #2

ENHANCE THE NATURAL PROTECTION FROM YOUR SKIN

Cold temperatures affect the "barrier" role of the skin

When temperatures get cold, production of sebum is reduced and so is the "barrier" function of he skin; this makes your skin more sensitive to external factors such as irritants and allergens. It is therefore advised to strengthen the skin and its barrier, using a lotion that brings both moisturising and protection, especially from allergens and pollution.
