Glowing Skin for Every Season With E45’s New Face Care Product Range

Posted on by

Our skin is constantly reacting to the changing seasons, which means our skincare routines should adapt accordingly. By tuning into how your skin feels and looks, you can make small changes that make a big difference. Let’s dive into some easy ways to adjust your routine for winter and summer, and discover how E45’s new face care range is tailored to meet your skin’s needs all year round.

Winter Skincare

Winter weather can be brutal on your skin. Cold temperatures, indoor heating, and harsh winds can strip away moisture, leaving your skin feeling dry and tight. To combat this, switch to a hydrating serum, reduce the frequency of exfoliation, and keep applying sunscreen—even when it’s cloudy. Look for rich, moisturizing products that contain nourishing oils and emollients to lock in hydration and protect your skin barrier.

Summer Skincare

When summer rolls around, high humidity levels can mess with your skin’s pH balance, causing clogged pores and even dehydration. To keep your skin fresh and clear, use a gentle foaming cleanser to remove excess oil. Sunscreen remains a must during the day to shield against UV damage, and a good night cream will help keep your skin hydrated without feeling heavy. Products with antioxidants like vitamin E are great for this season, as they protect your skin from environmental damage while keeping pores unclogged.
