Winter is the time of year when the skin needs special protection. Skiing trips or long walks on cold days are just some of the activities that expose the skin to external factors such as wind and frost. They make the skin dry, irritated and require strengthening the protective barrier. It is worth taking care of winter skin care, basing it on nourishing and regenerating creams. Such products not only intensively moisturize, but also provide the skin with nourishing and protective substances. Their composition often includes mineral and vegetable oils (sunflower oil, sweet almond oil or jojoba oil), butter (shea butter), waxes (beeswax) and ceramides. There are different types of winter creams on the market, both those with UV filters that provide additional protection against the harmful effects of sunlight, as well as those without filters.
