Changeable weather and central heating giving you dry, chapped, unhappy skin? Our seasonal skincare tips and products from Gatineau will save the day!
Our seasonal skincare tips will see you through from the end of winter to early spring.TIP 1 Deep moisturise, day and night - use a lighter day cream for underneath makeup and a deep, nourishing night balm to repair and soothe. At the very least, make sure skin is fully moisturised every morning to avoid that tight, painful feeling that leads to premature lines and excess oil production.We LOVE Gatineau Regenerating Cream for Dry Skin 50ml
TIP 2 Step away from the soap! Unless it’s a facial soap never ever ever use soap on your face. Soap strips the skin of natural oils and changes its natural PH. Whilst it’s ok for body skin you really don’t want to dry out the face at this time of year. Cleansing milk is especially good as it offers more powerful hydration.WE LOVE Gatineau Gentle Silk Cleanser 200ml
TIP 3 Have a clear out - everyone can suffer from blemishes at this time of year. Excess sugar, alcohol and late nights all affect the body’s balance, whilst dry skin can lead to excess oil production and blocked pores. Take time to assess your skin: weekly exfoliation and drinking more water may be all you need, but for more congested skin turn to an expert product to strip away dead skin and remove impurities fast.WE LOVE Gatineau Microdermabrasion Exfoliating Cream 75ml
Serums are incredibly results-driven and can work a lot deeper in the skin than a moisturiser can. Encapsulated with a much higher grade of active ingredients, a serum can really boost the skin’s natural moisture levels whilst offering powerful anti-ageing benefits.” - Gatineau
TIP 4 Indulge - this is the time of year when you can really pamper skin with face masks, oils and nourishing serums so give your skin some ‘me’ time. Don’t forget the body, especially the neck and decollétage. Turn down the shower temperature (just a little!) to protect body skin and apply a thick body butter or oil over wet skin to lock in the moisture.WE LOVE Gatineau Face Renew 7 Detox Serum 15ml
TIP 5 LIPS! - if there was ever a time when you needed lip care, this is it. Lips have only 6 layers of skin compared to 16 on the rest of the body (for more info, see our winter lip care guide). But there's no reason you can't combine softness with volume.WE LOVE Gatineau Perfect Design Volumising Lip Care 10ml
