The Impact of Winter on Skin

Cold, dry air can easily irritate your skin during the winter months. The decrease in the important skin protein filaggrin, combined with dry indoor heat and harsh winter winds, can lead to various skin issues. Understanding how winter affects the skin is the first step in maintaining healthy, glowing skin all season long.

Common Winter Skin Issues

Winter brings a unique set of skin challenges. From eczema and psoriasis to rosacea and Raynaud’s disease, several common skin conditions can worsen during the colder months. Staying on top of skin moisture is crucial for managing these winter skin woes.

Eczema

Eczema, a prevalent skin condition affecting over 31 million Americans, is often triggered by the cold, dry weather of winter. Characterized by inflamed, red, and itchy patches, eczema flare-ups can be frustrating during this time of year.

Psoriasis

Psoriasis is a chronic skin disease that causes red, scaly patches. The decreased sunlight and cold weather of winter can exacerbate psoriasis symptoms, leading to more frequent flare-ups.

Rosacea

Rosacea is a common skin condition that causes facial redness and flushing. Cold weather is a well-known trigger for many individuals with rosacea, leading to worsening of their symptoms.

Keratosis Pilaris

Also known as “chicken skin,” keratosis pilaris is a harmless condition that causes rough, bumpy patches on the skin. These bumps often become more pronounced during the dry winter months.

Raynaud’s Disease

Affecting up to 10% of Americans, Raynaud’s disease causes the blood vessels in the fingers and toes to spasm in response to cold, leading to decreased blood flow and a white, numb appearance. This condition can be particularly bothersome during the winter.

10 Dermatologist-Approved Winter Skincare Tips

While your regular skincare routine may not require a complete overhaul, implementing a few key changes can help your skin stay healthy and hydrated throughout the winter. Here are 10 tips from dermatologist Dr. Husienzad to keep your skin glowing all season long.

1. Moisturize Frequently

Opt for thick, creamy moisturizers containing ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and petrolatum to lock in moisture and prevent water loss. CeraVe Moisturizing Cream, Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Hand Cream, and Vaseline are excellent choices.

2. Switch to Hydrating Cleansers

Avoid harsh, drying cleansers during the winter months. Instead, choose gentle, fragrance-free, and hydrating options like CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser, BMD Gentle Cleanse, and La Roche-Posay Toleraine Hydrating Cleanser.

3. Moisturize Acne-Prone Skin

Even if you have oily, acne-prone skin, using hydrating, oil-free, and fragrance-free moisturizers can help combat excess dryness and peeling during the winter. CeraVe Facial Moisturizer, Neutrogena HydroBoost Moisturizer, and BMD Moisture Lux are great options.

4. Limit Hot Showers

While a long, hot shower may be tempting in the winter, it can further strip your skin of its natural oils. Limit showers to 15 minutes and use lukewarm water to avoid irritating your skin.

5. Avoid Harsh Scrubs and Scented Products

Loofahs, bath mitts, and harsh scrubs can irritate dry skin and lead to eczema flare-ups. Opt for gentle, fragrance-free products to avoid further drying out your skin.

6. Humidify Your Environment

Using a humidifier in your home and office can help add moisture back into the dry winter air, preventing your skin from becoming overly dehydrated.

7. Protect Your Skin from the Elements

When venturing outside, be sure to bundle up and protect your skin from the harsh winter wind and cold. Wear gloves, scarves, and other protective clothing to minimize exposure.

8. Don’t Forget Sunscreen

Just because it’s cold outside doesn’t mean you can skip the sunscreen. UV rays can still damage your skin, even in the winter. Choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher.

9. Exfoliate Gently

Sloughing off dead skin cells can help your moisturizers and other products penetrate more effectively. However, be sure to use a gentle, non-irritating exfoliator to avoid further drying out your skin.

10. Supplement with Omega-3s

Omega-3 fatty acids can help reduce inflammation and improve skin barrier function. Consider adding a fish oil or algae-based supplement to your daily routine.

By implementing these 10 dermatologist-approved tips, you can keep your skin healthy, hydrated, and glowing all throughout the winter season.

What Happens to Your Skin in the Winter?

Filaggrin, one of the most important proteins in our skin for maintaining the barrier function and natural moisturizing factors, decreases during the winter. It also decreases with age and hormonal changes. This combined with the dry cold weather, low humidity, and indoor heating that dehydrates our skin leads to dryness and worsening of skin conditions for many people.

5 Common Winter Skin Issues

Getting on top of skin moisture is one of the key components to maintaining skin health during the winter. Between the cold air, harsh winter winds, and dry indoor heat, it is easy for skin conditions to flare up. Here are five common winter skin issues that may worsen during the wintertime.

1. Eczema

Eczema is a common skin condition affecting over 31 million Americans. Characterized by inflamed, red, itchy patches of skin, eczema is caused by a combination of immune system activation, environmental triggers, and stress. Cold dry weather can trigger eczema flares in winter.

2. Psoriasis

Psoriasis is a long-term disease that causes red, itchy scaly patches on the skin, which flare up for a few weeks or months before subsiding or going into remission. The most common sites for psoriasis are your knees, elbows, trunk, and scalp. While there is no cure for psoriasis, your dermatologist can devise a treatment plan to help you manage your condition. Cold weather and decreased sunlight can cause worsening psoriasis in the winter.

3. Rosacea

Rosacea is a common skin condition causing blushing or flushing in your face and eyes. Rosacea may flare up for weeks or months before subsiding or going into remission. If left untreated, rosacea can lead to permanent damage to the skin and eyes. Cold weather is a common trigger for many.

4. Keratosis Pilaris (‘Chicken Skin’)

Keratosis Pilaris, also known as “Chicken Skin,” is a common, harmless skin condition that causes dry, rough patches and tiny bumps on the skin. These skin-colored or reddish bumps can appear on your arms, legs, or buttocks. These are often more pronounced when the skin is dry, such as during wintertime.

5. Raynaud’s Disease

Affecting up to 5 to 10% of Americans, Raynaud’s disease occurs when blood vessels in your fingers and toes spasm in response to cold, stress, or emotional upset. This leads to decreased blood flow, causing your fingers or toes to turn, cold, white, and numb, and can be a bothersome issue during the winter.

Importance of Winter Skin Care

You do not need a major overhaul of your skin care regimen during the colder months. You should, however, focus on more hydrating varieties of your products, and reduce irritating products to combat the dryness that winter inevitably brings.

10 Winter Skincare Tips from Dr. Husienzad

1. Moisturize Frequently

Thick moisturizers containing Ceramides, Hyaluronic Acid, and Petrolatum will help retain and seal moisture within your skin. Choose thicker creams over lighter lotions — the thicker the moisturizer, the better. A few favorites are CeraVe Moisturizing Cream, Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Hand Cream, and good old-fashioned Vaseline.

2. Switch to Hydrating Cleansers

During the winter months, avoid harsh cleansers on the face. As a rule of thumb, any cleanser that leaves you ‘squeaky clean,’ is stripping the skin of natural moisture. Use gentle, hydrating, fragrance-free cleansers for daily cleansing and to remove makeup. CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser, BMD Gentle Cleanse, and LaRoche Posay Toleraine Hydrating Cleanser are great options to keep skin hydrated yet clean.

3. Even Acne Prone Skin May Need TLC During the Winter

Use hydrating, oil-free, fragrance-free moisturizers daily and on top of your topical acne medications to help combat excess dryness and peeling. CeraVe Facial Moisturizer, Neutrogena HydroBoost Moisturizer, and BMD Moisture Lux moisturizer are great options for acne-prone skin.

4. Limit Hot Showers

Winter weather brings the desire for long hot showers, but hot water will further dry out your skin. Limit showers to 15 minutes and use lukewarm water to avoid irritating your skin.

5. Avoid Harsh Scrubs and Scented Products

Loofahs, bath mitts, and scrubs can irritate dry skin and lead to eczema flares. Avoid these if you have a history of eczema or dry skin. Use unscented soaps and body washes such as Dove Unscented Bar Soap, Cetaphil Cleanser, or Aveeno Body Wash.

6. Exfoliate for Smooth, Supple Skin

Dry skin will stay dry without light exfoliation. Avoid harsh scrubs and opt for moisturizers with lactic acid such as AmLactin or CeraVe SA, which acts as an exfoliant and a humectant, sloughing off dead skin and drawing moisture into skin simultaneously.

7. You Still Need Sunscreen!

Even though the sun’s UVB rays are not as strong in the winter, UVA rays are still present and can age you. Not to mention, the reflection of the sun’s rays through the clouds and off the snow during shoveling or skiing can cause you to get serious sunburn even if it’s not sunny outside. Remember to wear SPF 30+ every morning and reapply if doing any outdoor winter activities. Use a daily moisturizer with built-in sunscreen every morning such as EltaMD UV Daily Broad-Spectrum Sunscreen, LaRoche Posay Mineral Sunscreen Fluid, CeraVe AM Moisturizer with sunscreen, or Neutrogena Daily Defense Moisturizer with SPF.

8.

Limit Alcohol Intake and Hydrate Well

Alcohol during the holidays can dehydrate you. Make sure to limit these beverages and hydrate well with water throughout the day. Humidifiers at night can help regulate the moisture levels in your home and further combat dryness, promoting a dewy complexion.

9. Carry Lip Balm

Keep dry lips from getting chapped and sunburned during winter fun by using a hydrating lip balm with SPF every morning and throughout the day to seal in moisture. Vaseline Lip Therapy, Elta MD Lip Balm with SPF, or Coola Liplux Lip Balm with SPF are great options.

10. Be Aware of Irritating Skincare Products

Be aware of potentially irritating ingredients such as retinoids, exfoliating acids, and vitamin C. You may need to dial back on the potency of these topicals to be able to use them consistently through winter without causing excess irritation. Visit us at Bryn Mawr Dermatology to adjust the strength of your topical regimen as the winter nears to avoid over-drying the skin while still reaping the benefits of these potent anti-aging ingredients.

7 rules for skin care in winter. Advice from a dermatologist

Margarita Gecht,
Leading Dermatologist of the Butterfly Children Foundation

In the cold season, skin cells exfoliate more slowly, making the skin texture uneven. This leads to a delay on the skin of sebum (sebum), an increase in the number of bacteria and, as a result, inflammation on the face.

Advertising on RBC www.adv.rbc.ru

Dryness and roughness of the skin in winter is caused by a violation of its water balance due to temperature changes – being in a room with central heating, traveling in transport.

That’s why in every season, including the cold season, you need to adjust your skin care just like you change your wardrobe every few months. Like clothing, skin care products must be chosen thoughtfully, with an understanding of the purpose and system of their use.

There are seven main rules for winter skin care.

1. Use mild exfoliators

It’s reasonable to assume that exfoliating your skin in winter can make your skin feel even drier. There is indeed such a risk, but this does not mean that you should stop using exfoliants during the cold season. Exfoliating the skin is important to carry out all year round – it helps speed up skin regeneration and improves absorbency. In winter, you just need to use less harsh means. This will avoid irritation.

So, instead of a scrub with abrasive particles, use a gommage with spherical synthetic particles or an exfoliating cream containing low concentrations of AHA and BHA acids.

Frequency of use of exfoliants depends on skin type:

  • for dry skin, once a week;
  • for combination and oily skin – twice a week.

2.

Use vitamin C creams and serums

Vitamin C helps keep skin radiant during the colder months. It brightens and firms the skin, stimulates collagen production (which helps skin retain moisture) and helps protect it from external aggressors.

Moreover, it also helps repair damage. For example, during the summer months, the skin is exposed to harmful UV rays, which lead to photodamage and premature aging. Using vitamin C can help reverse this damage, maintain an even skin tone and texture, and enhance its natural radiance.

When choosing products containing vitamin C, pay attention to the Ascorbic acid component in the first ten positions of the composition. Its presence guarantees a concentration of vitamin C that will not irritate the skin (5-10%).

3. Keep your skin constantly moisturized

In winter, add a serum containing high and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid, azulene and centella asiatica extract to your usual moisturizer. These components will not only be able to penetrate into the deep layers of the epidermis and saturate it with moisture, but also restore damaged skin areas.

When choosing a moisturizer, pay attention to the texture. Fluids and emulsions are not suitable for winter, these light moisturizers are ideal for most skin types in summer. At low air temperatures and running central heating, you need to switch to cream. A denser texture will seal moisture in and act as a winter coat for the skin.

4. Change the texture of your facial cleanser

cream or oil formula.

In winter, the skin produces less sebum, which protects the upper layers of the epidermis from drying out. Therefore, gentle cleansing with milder products will help prevent excessive removal of sebum and preserve the hydro-lipid protective mantle.

Creams, oils, balms and micellar water can still be used for make-up removal during the colder months. These products effectively remove makeup and deeply cleanse pores without disturbing the hydro-lipid oil balance.

What primers, mists, tonics, lotions and micellar water are for

5.

Adjust your care for problem skin

For oily and acne-prone skin, reduce the amount of cleansing and mattifying clay-based masks in winter. Try applying moisturizing masks two to three times a week.

No-rinse moisturizing masks can be used for extra hydration at night. For acne-prone skin, pay attention to the composition – it should not contain paraffin, mineral oil and shea butter.

6. Use SPF even when it’s cloudy

It’s important that SPF is an integral part of winter skin care, as UV rays are active at this time of the year. In addition, solar radiation can enter through windows. Sunscreen should be applied daily to the face and other exposed skin areas such as the neck, ears, and hands.

7. Rethink your skin care for lips, hands and body

Body

In cold, uncomfortable weather, you want to take a hot shower. However, hot water quickly dries out the skin, and if it is not moisturized immediately, it may develop flaking and cracks. Patients with chronic skin conditions, such as eczema or atopic dermatitis, are at risk for their problems to flare up.

Take warm showers with cleansers that are oily or thick creamy and do not foam too much. After a shower, apply a moisturizer with hyaluronic acid, ceramides, wheat germ, vitamin A, urea, ceramides. This will maintain a moisture barrier and prevent dryness.

Hands

The skin on the hands has fewer sebaceous glands than the skin on any other part of the body. This is why moisture is quickly removed from the skin of the hands, increasing the risk of cracking and itching. In winter, 30 minutes before leaving the house, be sure to apply a moisturizer on your hands, and don’t forget to wear gloves when you go outside.

Feet

For moisturizing and retaining moisture in the skin of the feet, choose creams based on glycerin and petroleum jelly. Also, exfoliate the skin around your feet from time to time. This will allow her to easily absorb the moisturizer.

Lips

The skin on the lips is thinner than the rest of the face, making it more susceptible to the damaging effects of cold and wind. To replenish hydration and protect your skin, wear lip balm not only during the day, but also at night, when high room temperatures and even breathing through your mouth can exacerbate dryness.

Winter skincare

Protecting the skin from ultraviolet radiation has become a good habit for many. Cold is often not a concern. Protecting ourselves from frost, we put on outerwear, but leave the skin of the face “as is”. Meanwhile, on every square centimeter of the epidermis there are 20 receptors susceptible to cold! Compare: there are only 3 heat receptors in the same area. This means that in winter our skin needs protection no less than in summer. And even more! During this period, additional funds should appear in your care. Let’s talk about how to pick them up.

Hydration from within, with lipids and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid

What and how affects the skin in winter

Our skin in winter is affected by:

  • Low temperatures, especially frost. Vessels constrict, the upper layer of the epidermis is less supplied with blood, the exchange slows down, the skin becomes dull, the cells exfoliate more slowly. In response to low temperatures, the skin begins to “defend itself” – it produces cytokines – signal molecules that provoke a number of changes in the epidermis. The skin becomes thicker, rougher, takes on a grayish tint, and the sebaceous glands produce less sebum, which leads to dehydration.
  • Humidity reduction. In winter, air humidity is reduced, which provokes overdrying of the skin.
  • Temperature changes. Temperature fluctuations put a serious strain on the blood vessels, which either narrow in the cold or expand in the heat, which often causes a vascular network to appear on the face. The ability of cells to produce hyaluronic acid, collagen and elastin decreases, plus overdrying and – “hello wrinkles”.
  • Central heating. Central heating dries out the air in the room. And even if you have a powerful humidifier at home, in the office your skin suffers from dryness and dust.
  • Snow and wind. Cold wind speeds up moisture loss, and ice microcrystals injure the skin, making it vulnerable to bacteria and infections. In winter, irritation often appears on the skin, especially on dry skin.
  • Changing the drinking regimen. In cold weather, our natural need for fluid intake decreases, which negatively affects the moisture reserves in the epidermis.

So, one of the key skin problems in winter is dehydration. Almost each of the above factors affects the level of moisture in the epidermis. Therefore, the main task is hydration. The second problem is the depletion of the protective barrier and the vulnerability of the skin to adverse external factors. Therefore, the second task is to protect the skin from cold and precipitation.

It is important to remember that due to the decrease in moisture levels in winter, the skin produces less sebum, so oily skin becomes closer to normal, normal to dry, and dry to hypersensitive. Based on this, it is necessary to select care.

Purification

Cleansing in winter should be gentle. Use only mild enzymatic peels or products with a low percentage of AHA acids without scrubbing particles. Frequency of use: for dry and normal skin – once a week; for oily and combination – twice a week.

Winter lip care

The skin on the lips is thinner than on the face. It is prone to overdrying, and frequent contact with moisture (saliva, wet breath) provokes the appearance of wrinkles and even painful cracks in winter. Apply a protective lip balm not only before leaving the house, but also at night for enhanced skin nutrition. If you use decorative cosmetics, use a balm as a primer or change your usual lipstick for a nourishing product with color pigments. If there are no cracks and inflammations on the lips, use a special lip peel once a week to exfoliate dead cells and enhance skin regeneration.

Hand care

The skin of the hands has fewer sebaceous glands compared to other parts of the body. In winter, it often suffers from dehydration, cracks, itches and becomes covered with a fine network of wrinkles. Apply sunscreen and gloves half an hour before leaving the house. In the evening, add dense nourishing creams. Use a light moisturizer after every hand wash.

In winter weather, the temptation is great to bask in a hot shower, but it is undesirable to do so. Water above 37°C dries the skin. In the cold season, it can crack, especially around the elbows, knees, and feet. It is better to take a shower or bath with water no higher than 35 ° C. Use detergents with oils in the composition, which do not form abundant foam. So you will avoid overdrying of the skin and violation of its hydrolipidic barrier. After showering, apply creams and/or lotion to lock in moisture and nourish the skin. Scrub with nutrients once a week will help increase blood circulation and cell regeneration.
