The end of February has been whiplash weather, right? One day we’re ice skating wearing every jacket we own; the next day, that pond is a mushy pool of melting water and we’re strolling in a tee-shirt.
Mother Nature and Old Man Winter are in an epic battle and all I can tell you is my skin is as confused as my wardrobe. Are we layering on thick moisture to protect from harsh winds, or are we using a light cream to protect from sun damage?
The problem is...
I think this is how we’re going to have to balance for a while. March has that whole ‘in like a lion, out like a lamb’ thing going on, but we all know it’s never neatly packaged with a cool start and warm finish. It’s day-to-day hot-then-cold, so we better get our skin prepared now because it’s just the beginning.
Is it possible to have a skincare ritual for healthy, clear skin no matter what the weather is throwing at us? Yes! And this is exactly why we created the Winter Seasonal Skincare Box: to provide your skin with gentle cleansing, long-lasting moisture, and soothing protection, from sun or wind. The Winter Box has everything you need to develop a skincare ritual that cares for skin after a day of sweating in the melting snow or skiing through brutal winds, especially when paired with our core products (like we talked about in our past blog!).
Here are some examples of ways you can use the Winter Box products for the beautiful, healthy skin you want (and deserve!) as we transition seasons.
Morning Ritual
Start with the Creamy Cleanser, infused with Chaga oils, whichbalances skin while removing impurities and clearing pores. The cranberry and sheabutter delivers deep hydration to keep skin smooth all day. The botanical extracts soften and soothe skin,boost collagen production, and calm skin, leaving an even tone and glowing,bouncy feel to your skin for a fresh-faced day.
After rinsing, apply Hydration Cream all over face and neck;then apply Lip Polish to your lips. Using your fingers, gently massage lips. Thisaction will remove any dead skin cells and leave lips smooth and soft.
Following the Lip Polish, apply our Winter Exclusive LipBalm, which is packed with Chaga infused oils, shea butter, mango butter, and lanolinto protect and hydrate your lips all day.
Before leaving the house, apply our specially designed winter Chaga and Hyaluronic Acid Hand Cream. This velvety cream melts into skin and the natural ingredients leave a lasting glow while fighting signs of aging and healthier, more supple skin. This is fast absorbing, so you don’t have to wait before grabbing your keys and being on your way!
Evening Ritual
After a long day, our Creamy Cleanser with cranberry enzymes is gentle enough to use for a second time. The foaming lather softly removes makeup while the powerful natural ingredients clear pores, remove impurities. The calming scent relaxes and soothes.
These rituals offer you deep, luxe hydration; our proprietary Chaga-infused oils deliver moisture deep below skin so that your face and lips stay hydrated all day while also providing a layer of protection from sun and wind damage. The fast-absorbing oils and creams sink moisture into skin, so you aren’t left with heavy creams clogging pores for those warm, sunny afternoons where you might unexpectedly break a sweat on your lunch break.
All of these products will keep your skin soft and hydrated for Old Man Winter’s last hurrah while providing your skin with the protection and nourishment you need to transition to short sleeves. We only have a few Winter Seasonal Skincare boxes left, so if you haven’t gotten yours yet, there is still plenty of time to enjoy these luxe products packed with hearty winter ingredients for a radiant glow, no matter what Mother Nature throws your way.
