Dry winter skin: a routine adapted to Quebec's climate

Tightness, redness, chapped lips: how to adapt your skincare routine when the cold sets in.

A Quebec winter puts the skin barrier to the test. Moving from dry cold to overheated indoor air several times a day dehydrates even oily skin.

Replace your foaming cleanser

Choose a cleansing milk, oil or balm that does not strip the skin. Rinse with lukewarm water, never hot.

Layer textures

Apply a hyaluronic acid serum on damp skin, then a richer cream than in summer, with ceramides or shea butter.

Don't forget SPF

Snow reflects a large share of UV rays. SPF 30 sunscreen remains essential, especially outdoors and on the slopes.

  • A humidifier in the bedroom
  • Lip balm before going out
  • A hydrating facial at the start of the season
