Cold Weather, Glowing Skin: My Winter Skincare Essentials
These are my go-to products when the weather starts to cool down and my skin is in need of some extra TLC! My skin type is combination and acne-prone, which means winter can be tricky. The cold air dries me out, but I still deal with congestion and the occasional breakout — so balance is everything. Around this time of year, I focus on keeping my moisture barrier happy while still making sure my pores stay clear. I swap out any harsh actives for gentle exfoliants, reach for calming toners that soothe irritation, and stick with lightweight moisturizers that hydrate without feeling heavy or greasy. It’s all about layering hydration, protecting my barrier, and giving my skin that healthy glow even when the weather says otherwise.
