February often feels like the heart of winter, with chilly temperatures and dry air taking a toll on your skin. But don’t worry—Simmons Skin Center is here to help you keep your skin radiant and healthy all season long. These five essential tips will ensure your skin stays hydrated, protected, and glowing throughout the winter months.
1. Switch to a Richer Moisturizer
Cold, dry air and indoor heating can leave your skin feeling tight and dehydrated. This February, make sure you’re using a rich moisturizer that provides long-lasting hydration. Look for products containing ceramides, hyaluronic acid, or glycerin—ingredients that help lock in moisture and restore your skin’s barrier function.
Tip: Consider using an overnight moisturizer or facial oil for added hydration while you sleep.
2. Don’t Skip Sunscreen
Even in winter, the sun’s harmful UV rays can damage your skin. Snow and ice reflect up to 80% of UV rays, increasing your exposure even when you’re indoors or bundled up outside. Always apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher sunscreen every morning as part of your skincare routine.
Tip: Look for a moisturizer with built-in SPF to save time and get two skincare benefits in one.
3. Give Your Skin a Boost with Professional Treatments
Winter can leave skin looking dull and tired, but the right professional treatments can help rejuvenate and refresh your complexion. A facial, chemical peel or microneedling session can help remove dead skin cells, stimulate collagen production, and restore a youthful glow.
Tip: Speak with our skincare experts to determine which treatment is best suited to your skin type and goals.
4. Hydrate Inside and Out
Dry skin isn’t just caused by cold, dry air—it’s also a result of dehydration. To maintain healthy, glowing skin, drink plenty of water throughout the day. On top of that, adding hydrating skincare products, like a hydrating serum or face mist, can help lock in moisture.
Tip: Try to carry a reusable water bottle to remind yourself to stay hydrated throughout the day.
