Does your skincare routine need to change in winter?
Short answer: yes… and in this episode, we explain exactly why.
Consultant Dermatologists Dr Emma Craythorne and Dr Ellie Rashid share expert, practical advice on how cold weather affects your skin and how to adapt your routine to keep it hydrated, calm, and healthy all winter long.
Winter brings a perfect storm for skin problems: cold air, wind, low humidity, central heating, heavier clothing, and disrupted routines. Together, these can weaken the skin barrier, increase moisture loss, and trigger dryness, sensitivity, acne, rosacea, and eczema flare-ups.
In this video, we cover:
– What happens to your skin barrier in winter
– Why cold air and central heating dry out your skin
– The best winter skincare routine for healthy skin
– When to reduce exfoliating acids and active ingredients
– How to layer hyaluronic acid, moisturisers, and SPF correctly
– Why peptide moisturisers are ideal for winter skin
– Common winter skincare mistakes (and how to avoid them)
– Dermatologist tips for skiing, scarves, and cold-weather activities
– How diet, hydration, sleep, alcohol, and supplements affect your skin
This episode is ideal if you’re looking for dermatologist-approved winter skincare tips, want to improve dry or sensitive skin, or want a routine that actually works in cold weather.
