Skincare For Ski Trips And Snowy Adventures: Protecting Your Skin In Winter Wonderland

Ski trips and snowy adventures are exhilarating ways to embrace winter, but they can be harsh on your skin. Cold winds, UV rays at high altitudes, and dry air combine to create a challenging environment for maintaining healthy, hydrated skin. Here’s how to protect your skin from windburn, dryness, and sun damage while enjoying your time on the slopes.
Defend Against Windburn and Cold
Windburn can leave your skin feeling raw, red, and irritated after a day on the slopes. To shield your skin, we recommend layering with a rich moisturiser like our Supreme Hyaluronic Acid Anti-oxidising DUO Moisturiser. It works to create a barrier against harsh winds, protecting delicate areas while hydrating deeply.
Use a Balm for Extra Protection! Apply a protective balm on your lips to prevent chapping. Our Hyalu Replenish Lip Balm doubles as a barrier and treatment, ensuring your lips stay smooth and hydrated.
Protect Against UV Rays
Many people underestimate UV exposure in snowy conditions, but high altitudes and reflective snow make sun protection crucial. Use a lightweight SPF moisturiser like our Multi-Defense Ceramides Protecting Veil Broad-Spectrum SPF 50 to protect your skin from harmful UVA and UVB rays without clogging pores.
Soothe Post-Ski Skin
After a day in the elements, treat your skin to a soothing routine. A sheet mask infused with nourishing ingredients, like our Centifolia Rose Radiance Capturing Mask, will restore hydration and leave your skin feeling soft and rejuvenated.
Don’t forget a rich hand cream and a soothing body lotion, as other areas apart from your face that aren’t in direct contact with the cold winds can crack and dry out quickly in cold weather.
Hydrate Overnight to Combat Dry Air
High altitudes and cold temperatures suck moisture from your skin, leaving it parched and tight. After a long day outdoors, a product like the 8-Hour Radiance Renewal Sleeping Mask or our bestselling Deluxe Hyaluronic Acid Vivifying Face & Eye Night Cream will replenish moisture and soothe skin overnight.
By incorporating these tips and our carefully crafted products into your routine, you’ll ensure your skin stays healthy, hydrated, and radiant throughout your snowy adventures. Whether you’re conquering slopes or building snowmen, your skin will thank you!
