Winter cold puts a strain on our skin even causing unsightly skin problems.
In this season, in fact, the lowering of the temperature causes dehydration in the skin that, if not compensated adequately, can lead to an excessive production of sebum. This self-protective mechanism automatically triggers, however it occludes the pores, causing the appearance of feared imperfections.
That’s why having a specific beauty routine for each season is essential to have a healthy and radiant skin 💚
Where to start? The SKIN IV team has compiled for you a list of 3 useful tips to have perfect skincare habits ✨
1. CLEANSING AND TONIC
The choice of detergent is crucial: it must clean the face in depth but without drying the skin too much, already stressed by the cold to which it is subjected daily. In this season it is therefore better to prefer an oily detergent, rather than foamy, as more delicate and match a soothing tonic to restore the natural pH of the skin.
2. THE SCRUB
To avoid occlusion of the pores, it is good to proceed with a gentle scrub of the face that will gently eliminate any possible residue of "dirt".This step is essential especially in this period when you often wear the surgical mask: the mask in fact creates a sort of microclimate in the affected area that does not allow the skin to breathe, leading to blockage of pores and the appearance of blemishes (acne and blackheads).This phenomenon is also known as maskne.
3. MULTI-MASKING
The use of the multi masking technique is ideal for this time of year. It is a beauty technique that consists in applying several masks immediately after each other according to the needs of the skin.
The ideal would always be to combine with a mask that helps to keep the skin clean and protected, one that hydrates and nourishes it in depth, calming the redness.
SKIN IV in this choice meets you with its wide range of Korean cosmetic masks that will surely meet your needs. Below are three multi-masking options to take care of your entire body:
A. DETOXIFY AND SOOTHE
A phenomenon not to be underestimated is air pollution that not only grazes the skin but favors the accumulation of residues and dirt.
For a targeted protection from toxins, and a combined moisturizing and soothing action, we recommend the following sequence of masks:
- Blue Mask with Blue Flowers and Centella Asiatica: protects the skin of the face from external factors, giving a radiant and bright appearance.
- Lotus Flower Mask: moisturizes the skin in depth, calming redness and restoring the normal balance of the skin.
B. NOURISH AND ENLIGHTEN
Two areas that are very cold are the lips and the eye area. Both quickly lose hydration, chapping easily.
To find the right balance we recommend:
- Lip patches with Extracts of Coconut and Volufiline: in addition to nourishing the lips in depth, this mask also has a volumizing action.
- Eye Patch Gold Dust: the special hydrogel tissue of the mask, highly hydrophilic, moisturizes the area in depth. In addition, the anti-age and illuminating functions of the mask will restore light to your look, also attenuating the lines of expression.
C. TAKE CARE OF CRACKING
Don’t forget to take care of your hands and feet. These areas dry up quickly and are often prone to cracking and thickening.
To conclude in total relaxation your skincare, SKIN IV recommends you:
- Cosmetic gloves with Aloe: ideal to return to soft and revitalized hands. In addition, thanks to touch technology, you can continue to use your favorite digital devices during the application!
- Cosmetic socks with Jojoba oil: feet soft again, velvety and light!
