As the nights get darker and the weather gets colder, it's officially time to stick on the heat. While the cosy winter nights are a dream, the cold wintery weather makes life a little bit harder. Hats, scarves, gloves and massive coats, dealing with broken umbrellas and dodging rain showers.
With the cold weather back with a bang, results in central heating becoming a huge part of our lives for the next few months. Central heating, mixed with cold weather, has an effect on our skin, as it begins to change and adapt to protect us. The harsh winters experienced in Ireland can break down our skin barriers, causing dehydration and sensitivity.
When our skin experiences dehydration, it automatically becomes increasingly sensitive, removing that strong barrier we have to protect our body. Rosacea, eczema and psoriasis are all common results of that skin barrier being broken down. As the most important organ in the body, it is so important we look after it as best we can. To help, we’ve listed our top products to help protect our skin during the winter months below.
