Skin Dramas Solved

Falling temperatures can play some nasty tricks on our skin. Find out how to deal with these common change of season skin dramas.

 Drama

  Reason

     Solution

Try

Dry skin

The cold air dehydrates your skin.

Help retain moisture with a cream cleanser and treat excessive dry spots with a thick, ultra hydrating moisturiser.

            Cetaphil
Cetaphil Daily Advance Ultra Hydrating Lotion $17.99

Redness

Cold tempratures and wind make your skin irritated and inflamed.

Try using products developed for sensitive skin. To get rid of the red bits, try a product with caffeine to tighten blood vessels.

                  Garnier Caffeine Roll-On
Garnier Nutritionist Caffeine Eye Roll-on $16.99 (it’s made for your eyes but try it on a red nose!)

Flaky makeup

Winter weather makes oily spots oiler and dry spots drier - grr!

Balance skin with a double duty moisturising and matiffying product. It will help your makeup go on smoothly and prevent flaking.

Clean Start Welcome Matte, $49.20

My brother uses Cetaphil products and it actually is really good at hydrating skin. Willing to try out the Cetaphil Daily Advance Ultra Hydrating Lotion, with the NZ weather becoming more colder each day!
