Winter can be tough on your skin. The cold, harsh winds outside and drying central heating inside can leave your skin feeling parched, tight, and lacklustre. For many of us, the season can intensify concerns about aging skin, emphasizing fine lines and dullness. But fear not – with the right care, your skin can remain soft, hydrated, and radiant all winter long.

At Surya Luna Naturals, we’re all about helping you nourish your skin with eco-friendly, vegan solutions. Here are our top tips for keeping your skin hydrated and healthy during the cold months, plus how our luxurious products can make winter self-care a joy.
1. Hydrate From the Inside Out
Cold weather can dehydrate your body, which reflects on your skin. Keep your hydration levels up by drinking plenty of water throughout the day. Herbal teas are a wonderful warming alternative to plain water. For an extra boost, add a slice of lemon or ginger for their skin-loving antioxidants.

2. Moisturize Immediately After Showering
When you step out of a warm shower, your skin loses moisture quickly. Lock it in by applying a rich body butter immediately while your skin is still damp. Surya Luna Naturals’ Body Butters are made with nourishing ingredients like shea butter and cocoa butter to deeply hydrate and protect your skin against the elements.
3. Protect Your Lips
Your lips are one of the first areas to suffer in cold weather. They’re thinner and more prone to cracking and dryness. Keep them soft and kissable by applying a hydrating lip balm throughout the day. Surya Luna Naturals’ Lip Balms are packed with natural oils and butters, creating a protective barrier that soothes and repairs chapped lips.

4. Use a Gentle Cleanser
Harsh cleansers can strip your skin of its natural oils, leaving it dry and irritated. Switch to a gentle, hydrating cleanser during the winter months. Look for one that’s free of synthetic fragrances and packed with soothing ingredients to avoid further dryness.
5. Exfoliate With Care
Exfoliation is key to removing dead skin cells and allowing your moisturizer to penetrate deeply. However, over-exfoliation can exacerbate dryness. Stick to a gentle exfoliator once or twice a week to reveal fresh, glowing skin. Our Organic Adzuki Bean Exfoliator is super gentle and when teamed up with your favourite facial oil, it will leaving your skin moisturised and luminous.
6. Boost Your Night Routine
Night time is when your skin repairs itself, so it’s the perfect opportunity to give it extra love. Apply a deeply nourishing facial oil or cream before bed to help your skin recover from the day. Pair this with a humidifier in your bedroom to keep the air moist and combat the drying effects of central heating.
7. Pay Special Attention to Your Hands and Feet
Your hands and feet often get neglected but are just as susceptible to winter dryness. Treat them to a weekly mini-spa session. Soak your hands and feet in warm water, gently exfoliate, and massage in a thick layer of Surya Luna Naturals Foot Balm before slipping on cotton gloves or socks to lock in the moisture overnight.
