Cold air outside, dry heating inside — Warsaw winters put your skin through a lot. The drop in humidity strips moisture from the skin, leaving it tight, flaky, dull and sometimes red or irritated.
With a few seasonal adjustments and the right professional treatments, you can keep your skin hydrated and glowing all winter. Here's how our skin therapists recommend adapting your routine.
Switch to a richer moisturiser
Your lightweight summer moisturiser may not be enough in winter. A richer cream helps lock in hydration and protect the skin barrier against cold, dry air.
Don't skip hydrating facials
Regular hydrating facials — or a HydraFacial — replenish moisture deeper than home care alone, keeping winter skin plump and radiant rather than dry and dull.
Be gentle with exfoliation
Over-exfoliating in winter can damage an already stressed barrier. Cut back to gentle exfoliation once or twice a week to keep skin smooth without irritation.
Keep wearing SPF
UV damage doesn't stop in winter, especially with snow reflecting light. Daily SPF remains essential for protecting your skin and preventing pigmentation.
Hydrate from within
Indoor heating is dehydrating. Drinking enough water and using a humidifier at home both help your skin hold onto moisture.
