My self-care and beauty recommendations for dry winter months ❄️
11
items A list of products that I recommend for cold weather and the winter time. For reference, I have dry/combo skin, but I believe that these products will work for most skin types (I will mention in the details if it might be a bit rich for oily skin).

Products that I have used for a long time and I genuinely swear by. All are suitable for all skin types apart from the Orien moisturiser which I think could be on the richer side for oily skin.
One of the gentle cleansers I've ever used- this is especially suitable for sensitive and dry skin. ✅ It leaves your skin feeling super soft and not stripped at all. ‼️ However it doesn't leather as much as many other cleanses so for oily skin girls ...
haruharu wonder - Black Rice Moisture 5.5 Soft Cleansing Gel
✅ Best milky essence on the market in my opinion. I'm on my second bottle, it lasts a long time because you don't need a lot. It makes my skin feel so soft the morning after I use it. ‼️ Only thing I would say is that the bottle dispenses very few dr...
haruharu wonder - Black Rice Probiotics Barrier Essence
Beta glucan holds much more moisture than hyaluronic acid so if your skin is really dry or it's winter this is perfect! ✅ It has a goopier texture which is more hydrating. ‼️ but I will say that the dropper isn't that great- I have to dip in multiple...
iUNIK - Beta-Glucan Power Moisture Serum
✅ this bottle is huge and has lasted me ages, it's one of my favourite hyaluronic acid serums and my face feels really soft in the morning. ✅ the brand also donates towards polar bears which is a plus. Nothing bad to say about this product!
mixsoon - Glacier Water Hyaluronic Acid Serum Jumbo
✅ I was actually gifted this cream at first but I loved it so much! It reminds me of the QV moisturising cream which is one of my favourite simple moisturisers for dry skin! Not greasy, sticky or heavy on the skin but deeply moisturising. ✅ it also has other added ingredien...
Orien - Mugwort Zero Film Moisturizer
Other face care
These are some other products which aren't part of my daily skincare routine, but I reach for a lot when my skin is extra dry. Apart from just your face, also make sure to take care of the rest of your body!
I never go to sleep without putting a lip balm or lip mask on. This one from round lab has no scent and it comes with a silicon applicator.
ROUND LAB - Birch Juice Moisturizing Lip Balm Set | YesStyle
Super underrated brand - I've liked all of the products I've tried from them. ✅ These masks are super hydrating and good for the skin barrier, I always use it when I've broken out. ✅ It has a medicinal scent which is actually quite calming before bed... I actually like the smell.
BIOHYALUX - Barrier Conditioning Mask Set
AN EMOLLIENT that is great when your skin is super super dry, to use on top of your moisturiser ✅. I usually apply on top of my moisturiser because by itself it is not that hydrating (it's an emollient). ✅ Also helps with the appearance of sebaceous ...
Cicaplast B5+ Moisturiser for Dry Skin - La Roche-Posay Australia
Body + hair care
Apart from just your face, also make sure to take care of the rest of your body!
Favourite thing about this body lotion is how lightweight it is which makes it really suitable for all seasons ✅, because it doesn't make you feel sticky before bed! ‼️However, it is not moisturising enough if your skin is very cracked and needs inte...
APLB - Glutathione Niacinamide Body Lotion
This shea butter heel patch is good if your heels are a bit dry or cracked. When I use them, I wear them overnight, or for a whole day under my socks in order to get the maximum benefit. Make sure that your feet are thoroughly dry before you put them...
baren - Shea Butter Sleeping Heel Patch 10 pcs
This hair mask smells so good and leads your hair feeling super super soft!! it is great when your hair is feeling frizzy or dry.
