As the temperature drops, the skin becomes drier and more sensitive, so extra care is essential! But with so many active ingredients and different products available, which is ideal?
After all, some active ingredients can cause the opposite effect and sensitize our skin even more. With that in mind, we’ve selected the five best active ingredients for your ideal winter skincare!
Hydration is your best friend
Since the beginning of the season we have been emphasizing hydration . It may seem cliché, but it is really essential for skin health, both day and night.
Therefore, investing in moisturizing active ingredients is the best act of self-care at the moment. We have separated five active ingredients that fulfill the function of hydrating and also provide more benefits.
Hyaluronic acid
Hyaluronic acid is a classic when we talk about moisturizing active ingredients, a favorite. This happens because during its action, it retains water inside the skin for longer.
Another benefit is that hyaluronic acid can be used at any time of year, but especially in winter.
Centella asiatica
Centella asiatica or cica is also an excellent option for the winter. Among its benefits are its moisturizing, anti-inflammatory and healing action.
Truly an indispensable asset, right? You can find it in toners, serums or creams. In addition to its combination with other assets.
Aloe vera
Who doesn't know the famous aloe vera? This plant is a true treasure spread throughout grandmothers’ backyards and gardens! When we need hydration without weighing down the skin, aloe vera is the ideal asset.
Its action helps to moisturize the skin, remove impurities and control oil. Ideal for hydrating oily skin!
It is also perfect for combining and enhancing other active ingredients, such as salicylic acid, for example.
Vitamin C
Vitamin C is an essential option for the whole year, but especially for winter. It is one of the most powerful antioxidants, in addition to providing hydration and radiance to the skin.
The active ingredient also helps treat blemishes, imperfections and anti-aging, and can also be used during the day.
Retinol
Retinol is a versatile active ingredient, both in terms of benefits and for combining other active ingredients and products. For example, its action combined with hyaluronic acid or niacinamide is excellent and provides a lot of hydration.
This much-loved active ingredient reduces blemishes, stimulates collagen production, evens out the skin and acts on cell renewal. Phew… there are many benefits for one asset!
It also provides more luminosity and firmness to the skin, being excellent for premature aging.
