Arm yourself with these moisturizers for winter

Maintaining skin hydration is a major concern in winter. The dry and cold weather sucks the moisture out of our skin and unless we are careful, our skin could end up wrinkly, sallow, and rough.

Skin Moisturizers for Winter at Skin & Vein Institute in Encinitas CA Area

A quality moisturizer helps keep the skin hydrated and supple. SkinCeuticals Triple Lipid is great for dry to normal skin. The anti-aging cream contains the optimal ratio of ceramides, cholesterol, and fatty acids to nourish and repair the skin. The lightweight, fast-absorbing product is dye- and paraben-free and improves the skin’s texture, fullness, radiance, and pore appearance.

Those with normal to dry skin could also benefit from Restorsea PRO Rebalancing Lotion which hydrates the skin while reducing redness and flakiness. It is especially great for those of us that use a retinoid like Altreno, tretinoin, or Retin-A as the active ingredient Aquabeautine XL works to reduce that dryness the retinoids can cause. It also has squalane to prevent moisture loss, restore suppleness and flexibility, and Shea Butter to moisturize and soothe the skin.

Those of us that are extra busy or just do not like putting on lotions or creams will love Restorsea PRO All Day Everyday Lotion 3x. This is used to hydrate and repair. It has all the benefits of the rebalancing lotion plus a higher concentration of the Aquabeautine XL so it helps lighten brown spots, and of course improve redness, and flakiness.

If you want basic, but effective protection without the extras, why not consider CeraVe? It comes in lotion form for oily to normal skin and as a cream for dry to normal skin. The lightweight, oil-free, and non-comedogenic moisturizer contains ceramides and hyaluronic acid which hydrate and plump the skin cells so you look less withered and wrinkly.
