Winter morning skincare routine

Winter morning skincare routine

Canada’s winter has come. Due to the covid-19 pandemic, my skincare for this winter has become more streamlined.

Step 1: Use face cleanser


I first clean my face with a low-ph facial cleanser. Since my face is usually dry when I get up in the winter, I don't use a powerful cleanser in the morning which can make the redness or dryness even worse. I usually clean my face in the morning with a mild cleanser(EFFACLAR GEL Gentle, soap-free purifying face gel cleanser). Sometimes I just wash my face with clean water. There is a scientific basis for washing your face with water, especially for people who are dry skin, washing your face with water will not irritate the skin.


Step 2：Serum

This step can actually be omitted, mainly depending on personal needs. If you often use a functional serum at night. And the description of this serum shows that it may be better to use it once in the morning and evening. Then you can add this step in the morning. If you have oily skin or acne-prone skin. Then I do not recommend that you use serum, it may aggravate your acne in some cases. At least I have encountered this situation myself. Therefore, if you are suffering from acne for a long time, it is recommended to ask your dermatologist whether it is appropriate to use serum products. I occasionally use a Moisture essence such as Decorte Moisture Liposome when my skin is in a stable state and I am not currently using any other functional essence.


Step 3: Face Cream

Applying face cream in the morning in winter is an important step. But I don’t recommend applying heavy creams, especially for oily skin. This will make your skin look very oily. If you have used the moisturizing serum in the previous step. Then you can use regular effective moisturizer for this step.If you passed the previous step, then you can choose a cream that is not heavy in texture but has a very good moisturizing effect. Like Peter Thomas Roth Water Drench Hyaluronic Cloud Cream. This cream has a gel texture, but the moisturizing effect is very good. Therefore, it does not mean that only heavy texture moisturizer has a good moisturizing effect.


Step 4: Sunscreen


Wearing sunscreen is an important step, especially before going out. If you are going to be at home for the rest of the day, you may choose to skip this step. But if you need to go out. Then you'd better put on sunscreen. I usually use sunscreen with an SPF between 20 and 50. Sunscreen is an inexpensive skincare product that has some anti-aging benefits (as long as you always wear it before going out). Even in winter, the outdoor UV index is still not lower than in summer. Therefore, it is necessary to remember to apply sunscreen when going out.


Step 5: Lip balm


Canadian winters often cause my lips to be very dry, so I apply lip balm to protect my lips. Especially if I need to put on makeup that day, I will apply lip balm before putting on makeup.

Sephora is about to start its winter sale, which will run from Oct. 30 to Nov. 9. The discount will cover most of Sephora's products. In addition, recent activities of Cosmetics and skincare on Shoppers are also very tempting. On my last Blog I Shared my thoughts on what high-end skincare products are worth buying and what aren't during the winter sales season. In this blog, I will share some of the high-end cosmetics I bought in the past six months and talk about whether it is worth buying these products in the winter discount season. Gucci Rouge à Lèvres Satin Lipstick $55 ： First of all, the packaging of the product is exquisite, and the color matching is very eye-catching. In the product introduction, some colors can be used as blush. I think it is a very suitable lipstick for winter in terms of moisture level. And it is also suitable for use as a blush on the face. However, due to COVID-19, people basically wear masks and use lipstick when they go out. Therefore, whether ...

Winter nighttime skin care routine

Winter  nighttime  skincare routine: Step 1: Face Wash & Cleansers When I do skincare at night, I usually choose between two different facial cleansers. If I go out during the day and put on makeup. I would prefer to use this facial cleanser by Erno Laszlo. It has stronger cleaning. Although it is winter, after using this cleanser, I don't feel my face is dry. If I do not go out during the day or put on makeup, I would consider using La Roche-Posay cleanser. I also use this facial cleanser in the morning, it will be more gentle. Step 2: Toner I will use SK-II Facial Treatment Essence for my toner in the evening. Although it is not considered a toner in the strict sense, its effect is much greater than toner. And this essence is very suitable for people with oily skin. After using it, you won't think this is an unnecessary step. Step 3: Serum This step is not necessary unless your facial skin has anti-aging, dark spots, uneven texture, pores, redness, and other needs. Then ...
