Easy Ways to Get Your Skin Ready for Cooler Temperatures

There’s nothing like the onslaught of cooler weather to make your skin feel dry and cracked — especially the thin skin around your lips. But no matter how dry and tight your skin is feeling, you can’t just grab any heavy moisturizer and layer it on thick. The ingredients in your products matter. Luckily, NUDESKIN has skincare for dry skin, as well as skincare for dry, acne-prone skin and all other skin types. Because yes, oily skin needs moisture, too! 

We’re sorry to say, the cold weather is just beginning and chances are, it’s about to get colder where you live. Get your winter skincare routine in check before the weather dries out your face. Below, our top tips for healthy, moisturized skin all season long. 

1. CLEAN

While you want to remove all traces of dirt, oil and makeup from your skin, it’s also important not to overly strip the skin. That’s where GENTLE HYDRA-GEL FACE CLEANSER comes in. The non-foaming, gentle, water-based cleansing gel is formulated for sensitive, dry and blemish-prone skin. It’s also free of harsh surfactants and fragrances that can dry and irritate skin. What it does have are humectants to keep skin hydrated, hyaluronic acid to lock in moisture, mushroom extracts to brighten skin and cicer seed extract to improve skin tone and texture.

2. EXFOLIATE

Exfoliation is key for dry skin as it removes dead skin cells, increasing blood circulation. Skip the harsh exfoliants and try the vegan-powered LEMON-AID DETOX & GLOW MICRO-PEEL. The 3-in-1 solution deep cleans pores, renews cells with apple and pomegranate fruit extracts, and brightens skin with ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate and lemon peel oil. The addition of niacinamide and hyaluronic acid softens fine lines while locking in moisture. 

3. MOISTURIZE

NUDESKIN created the non-greasy, non-comedogenic moisturizer your skin is craving — especially during the fall and winter months. CITRUS-C MASK & DAILY MOISTURIZER contains antioxidant-rich ​​fermented yuzu oil, as well as energizing turmeric and hydrating elastomers. Use lightly as morning moisturizer and makeup primer, or layer as a nightly treatment mask for dehydrated skin. 

Wait — don’t forget your lips! ​​HYDRA-PEPTIDE LIP BUTTER was made just for the thin skin on your lips. It’s formulated with ripe avocado and shea butters that instantly soften lip texture and lock-in moisture for all day hydration. Tripeptides Pal-KMO2K mimic and stimulate natural hyaluronic acid and collagen to maximize lip volume and plumpness with every dose. Lips feel soft and juicy while looking plump! 

4. MASK 

Stronger skin is better protected from the elements. The TIGHT + BRIGHT FACE MASK contains 10 percent niacinamide, a form of vitamin B3 that helps strengthen the lipid barrier, locking in moisture and reducing redness and signs of aging. And that’s not all this mask does. It also contains 2 percent betaine salicylate (a BHA) to gently improve skin texture and tone, as well as skin-soothing aloe barbadensis leaf and cucumber fruit extracts. 

The result is smooth, hydrated skin that’s never dull even in the coldest winter months.
