During the winter period it is best to take care of your skin with a good one facial dull That offers the skin protection against the elements.

Use an exfoliant instead of scrub
In the winter your skin is much more susceptible to pimples or other unevenness. Therefore the importance of the right one Skincare routine. The face ball is an essential part of this. But removing dead skin cells is just as important. Also because of this pimples get a free job.
Then chemical exfoliating is the right approach. In any case, we recommend that you have a good one all year exfoliant to include in your skin care routine, but certainly also to be used in the winter. You can better leave scrub with crystals that physically sand. You only damage the sensitive winter skin with that.
By using the right Exfoliant you can solve the dead skin cells. But you also brush away other irregularities, dark colors and grooves. Do this a maximum of twice a week. If you are going to exfoliate too much, you can dry out the skin and irritation is lurking quickly.
Shave in the evening
It is not handy to shave in the morning in the morning. By shaving, your skin has a lot to endure and during such a shaving session you remove the top layer of your facial skin that offers protection. If you board the cold in the early morning after shaving, your skin is unable to quickly rebuild that protective layer.
The result? You have a pulling skin all day and you suffer from irritations such as redness, gaps and other inconveniences. That is why it is much better to shave before you go to bed. After shaving, spread your skin with the Best Aftershave balm and bring a good one as a finish night cream On. Your skin has been recovered sufficiently during the night so that you have laid the foundation for a new winter day.

In the winter you can wash the face much better with lukewarm water. If you use hot water you will only dry out the skin. Because of the hot water you lose the natural oils in your skin that you desperately need to protect yourself against the cold weather influences. With all irritations and skin damage as a result.
Use mild cleaners
You prefer to clean the skin in the winter with a mild moisturizing facial cleaner. Especially if you suffer from sensitive skin. It is best to use a good cleanser with only natural extracts such as Aloe Vera and Vitamin E.
It cleans your skin and removes the dirt in a cautious way so that the pores do not get clogged and your skin soothes and softens. With this perfect basic facial routine you give a dull complexion and pimples no chance and together with a good face balm for an even skin that can handle a winter bump.
Don't forget SPF
Even though the sun does not have much power in the winter and your head will not suddenly turn into a raisin, the UvA radiation present does have an impact on the health of your skin. That's why we recommend you to be on top of your face ball, a good one sunburn To be applied so that your skin is also resistant to this!
