Do you ever feel like no matter how much moisturiser you apply, your skin still feels dry, tight, and uncomfortable? You’re not alone. Managing dry skin, especially during colder months or in harsh climates, requires more than just your average skincare routine. Sometimes, it’s the tools and small lifestyle changes that make all the difference.
If you’ve been struggling to keep your skin hydrated and glowing, we’ve put together a list of four must-have items to add to your dry skin routine. These additions are all about nurturing your skin, locking in hydration, and providing that much-needed comfort during those extra dry days. Let’s dive in!
1. A Silk Pillowcase: Beauty Sleep Redefined
Switching to a silk pillowcase is one of the easiest yet most impactful changes you can make for your skin. Unlike cotton, which can absorb moisture from your skin while you sleep, silk helps retain that precious hydration. Plus, the smooth texture minimizes friction, reducing irritation and preventing unnecessary tugging on dry or sensitive skin.
Pro Tip: Pair your silk pillowcase with your favorite nighttime moisturiser to wake up with softer, hydrated skin.
2. A Facial Steamer: Hydration Boost at Home
A facial steamer is like a spa day in a box. By gently opening up your pores, it helps your skincare products penetrate deeper, making your hydrating serums and moisturisers work even better. The warm mist not only hydrates your skin but also helps loosen dead skin cells, leaving your face feeling fresh and supple.
Pro Tip: Use a steamer for 5–10 minutes before applying our Cleansing Balm to help it melt away impurities while nourishing your skin.
3. A Humidifier: Combat Winter Dryness
If you live in a colder climate, you already know how brutal winter air can be on your skin. Indoor heating often zaps the moisture from the air, leaving your skin feeling drier than ever. Enter the humidifier! Adding one to your bedroom or living space restores moisture to the air, creating a more skin-friendly environment.
Pro Tip: Run your humidifier overnight and wake up with skin that feels less parched and more balanced, your morning routine will thank you!
4. Our New Cleansing Balm: Nourish as You Cleanse
Say goodbye to harsh cleansers that strip your skin and hello to our nourishing Cleansing Balm a true game-changer for dry skin. Packed with hydrating and soothing ingredients, it gently removes makeup, dirt, and impurities while leaving your skin soft and moisturised. Unlike traditional cleansers, our balm works with your skin’s natural oils rather than against them, making it a perfect addition to your dry skin routine.
Pro Tip: Use it as the first step in your double cleansing routine, or as a standalone cleanser for an ultra-soothing cleanse.
