BUSTING WINTER SKIN MYTHS

Exfoliators in soapy water

As the temperatures drop and the air turns crisp, keeping skin healthy, happy, and glowing becomes a bit more challenging.

To help you maintain your radiant complexion all winter long, here are a few common skincare myths that tend to resurface this time of year—along with the truth to set the record straight.

Myth #1: "You only need moisturizer at night."
The truth: Winter air is relentless in its ability to pull moisture from your skin. Hydration isn’t just for nighttime—apply a rich moisturizer, like our dermatologist-approved CREAM, both morning and night to lock in nourishment and counteract winter dryness.

Myth #2: "Exfoliating dries out your skin."
The truth: Gentle exfoliation 1-3 times a week keeps your skin smooth and radiant, even in winter. Our powerhouse exfoliators, the DEEP ENZYME CLEANSE and BAMBOO REFINING POLISH give your skin a super clean slate to better absorb the nutrients in the serums and moisturizers you apply afterward.

Myth #3: "Hot showers beat the winter chill."
The truth: As tempting as a steaming shower may be, hot water strips your skin of its natural oils, leaving it dry and vulnerable. Opt for lukewarm water, and follow up with our NOURISHING OIL or HYDRATING CREAMY BODY OIL to restore comfort and moisture to dry winter skin.

Myth #4: "Facial masks are a summer affair."
The truth: Winter is the perfect season for slowing down and indulging in a spa-grade mask ritual. Our MASKS are cold-weather essentials, drawing out impurities while leaving your skin refreshed, renewed, and glowing.

Myth #5: "Cleansing makes dry winter skin worse."
The truth: Over-cleansing can deplete your skin’s moisture barrier, but skipping cleansing altogether isn’t the answer. A gentle cleanser, like our MOISTURIZING WASH, uses ingredients such as red sea algae and quillaja extract to purify without stripping—preserving your skin’s hydration and balance.

This winter, nurture your skin with care and intention. When you embrace rituals that nourish and protect, even the harshest days can leave you glowing.
