If your skin is to stand a chance against the frigid air of winter, your beauty routine will need a nourishing transformation. With the right products from BIOEFFECT, there’s no reason why your complexion can’t be glowy and hydrated year-round. We’ve curated seven pieces of advice to help you achieve dreamy, dewy skin this cold season.

#1 Sunscreen is Non-negotiable 

A well-protected complexion fosters happy, healthy skin that appears lit from within. We recommend wearing sunscreen throughout the year, even if the sun is in hiding. Make sure you are reapplying your favourite mineral or chemical sunscreen during the day, and don’t forget to take it down your neck and over your hands. 

Between the winter air, indoor heating and flu season, skin can easily become very irritated and inflamed. Stripping your skincare routine back to basics is a great way to calm, soothe and repair your skin so you can replenish that healthy glow. At BIOEFFECT, we pride ourselves on our specialised collection of oil-free, alcohol-free and fragrance-free skincare. All formulated with fewest ingredients possible to minimise skin irritation and maximise amazing results.

Exfoliation reveals your skin’s healthy, natural radiance. Our Volcanic Exfoliator gently buffs away dry, dead skin with micro-crystalized lava and ground apricot seeds to reveal a brighter, clearer complexion. For the best results, use twice a week to maintain a flake-less lustre. 

#4 Hydration is Key 

To keep skin hydrated and comfortable during the colder months, we recommend trying products with a lightweight formulation. Our EGF Day Serum has a gel texture that delivers a fresh, satin-like gleam. It’s a firm favourite with men too as it glides on effortlessly for a smooth finish. 

Dry winter air and indoor heating can draw moisture from your skin, making it feel tight and looking dull. Our OSA Water Mist is ideal to refresh and soothe skin throughout the day - we often refer to it as portable hydration in a tube. With skin-softening pure Icelandic water and Optimized Hyaluronic Acid it replenishes and rebalances your skin’s hydration levels. 

 

A refreshed and hydrated eye area compliments luminous skin. Did you know that the skin around our eyes is 10 times thinner and significantly dryer than that on the rest of the face?

Between dealing with irritated eyes from allergies and dry skin, giving your eye area some extra love and care can make all the difference. Once a week, treat yourself to the EGF Eye Mask Treatment – our top tip is to chill the Imprinting Eye Masks in the fridge before use. It offers a cooling and soothing sensation along the orbital bone whilst revitalising and plumping dry, delicate skin. 

#7 Nourish Your Skin at Night
Hydrated skin produces a radiant complexion. This is why we consistently talk about ways to rehydrate and replenish moisture levels in the skin. Choosing lightweight textures, like our EGF Day Serum, during the day means that at night you can focus on deeper nourishment. We recommend pairing 2-4 splashes of our refreshing EGF Essence with a few drops of our plant-based EGF Serum for nights. This duo will not feel heavy when layered and will deliver firmer-looking, radiant and glowing skin each morning.
