Current Winter Skin Care Routine
Hello Everyone,
I will be sharing with you
my current skin care routine. Though in Mumbai you do not experience harsh cold
but this time the temperature has really gone down to around 10-11 degrees. My skin type is normal with some dryness around
my chin, nose and cheeks. So in winters, it is essential for me to exfoliate
and moisturize well to avoid dry patches and flaky skin. Currently my
skin is on the dryer side and blending a foundation to get that perfect base
has become a task. I am sure all of you with similar skin type can relate to my
situation. People with oily and combination skin type has options as brands
have launched matte finish foundations recently but for dry skin people options
are less.
Coming to my skin care
regime, I will tell you about products I am loving lately and is working well
for my skin.

| Current Winter Skin Care Routine Products |
Makeup
Remover: I do not prefer oil-free makeup removers as they are
irritating and drying for my skin. I have been using baby oil for removing my
makeup as it completely wipes off the makeup especially mascara without much
effort. Also I carry Johnson &
Johnson Baby Wipes in my bag as I generally do not prefer scented facial
wipes.
Face
Cleanser: I love cleansers which do not produce foam. I am
currently using Olay Total Effects
7-in-One Foaming Cleanser which is very creamy and doesn’t dry out my skin.
Toner: I love
spring water sprays instead of drugstore toners. I have used Avene thermal Spring Water for a long
time and currently I am using my third bottle of Vichy Thermal Spa Water.
Serum: One
year back, serums were not a part of my skin care as I always thought that they
are too light for my skin. When I started reading about then I came to know that
they penetrate deep within the skin more than any other moisturizer so I added
them in my routine. Currently I am using The
Body Shop Vitamin E Moisture Serum which has helped a lot to even out my
skin tone.
Moisturizer: I
am loving Olay Total Effects 7-in-One
Day Cream and it has become my favorite forever. This is one product which
I can use it in any season as it is very balanced in terms of providing
moisture as well as keeping my skin oil free even during humid weather.
Night Cream: Because Olay products really worked well for me, I was very keen to try its 7-in-One Night Cream but it was unavailable at that time and Olay Natural White 7-in-One Night Nourishing Repair Cream caught my attention because of its description "repairs skin overnight". I am currently using it as a night cream and will share my experience in the posts ahead.
Shower
Gel:
I am currently using two of them alternatively; The Body Shop Fuji Green Tea Shower Gel which is very mild and Nivea Crème Coconut which is smooth on
skin and smells heavenly.
Body
Lotion: Since my skin is dry, Nivea Nourishing Lotion Body Milk for Very Dry Skin has done a
really good job for me this winter
All these products have been
my favorites this season and people who can relate to my skin type should
surely give them a try. I will soon review these products and let you know my experience in detail. You all can share your current skin care favorites which are
worth trying.
Have a good week ahead!
