5 tips for winter skin
Glow up your winter skin
Winter walks in the fresh, cold air are absolute highlights these days. But the climate takes its toll on our skin. Winter is a thief—a moisture thief. Your skin is stressed by the additional heating air, becoming noticeably dry, and your complexion pale. We'll give you five tips on how you can treat yourself and your skin to little pampering moments.
No. 1: Immune booster for your skin
A pale complexion isn't just due to a lack of sunshine; diet also affects the skin's appearance. After a December of sweet and salty indulgences , January brings back the benefits of healthy nutrients .
You can give your body a classic reboot with a juicing treatment, but specially formulated supplements like the 2-PHASE SKIN SET from YLUMI UND GRETEL also give your skin everything it needs.
No. 2: Rich care
Enrich your daily moisturizer with oils. Or use an oil-based primer like WEGEN instead of a water-based one.
The best way to enrich your daytime moisturizer is to add a few drops of MINNE Rich & Refining Face Oil. MINNE is a versatile product for facial massages, as a finishing touch to your skincare routine, and as an enrichment for your day cream during nighttime care—or when your skin is drier due to the season.
No. 3: Increase humidity
On cold days, there's almost nothing better than making yourself warm and cozy at home. Unfortunately, the dry air from heating systems isn't so good for our winter skin. Warm air is drier and draws moisture from the skin.
The solution: Humidifiers , which you can also use with essential oils to scent your room. No humidifier? Use moistened cloths or bowls of water that you can place on your radiator.
No. 4: Care for brittle winter hands
Nothing is more annoying and painful than cracked and chapped winter hands. What your hands need in winter is not just moisture, but also nourishing ingredients that retain moisture and keep the skin beautifully supple .
Moisturize your hands daily with a hand cream such as the fast-absorbing ARMONIE Hand Lotion .
No. 5: Drink a lot – it’s fun
Drinking plenty of fluids is important for your skin, and not just in summer. To ensure you really enjoy it, we've created an UND GRETEL winter drink: the Gretel Mulled Punch . Brew a fruit tea of your choice. Add cloudy apple juice and ginger juice. A pinch of cinnamon is optional; it gives the punch a more wintery flavor.
A low-calorie drink that you can keep warm on a teapot warmer for a long time. Just give it a try.
Take care of your winter skin.
