Why are face serums more effective in winter?

In winter, cold temperatures can cause the blood vessels to restrict the blood flow resulting in dull and pale skin. To fight this off, face serums penetrate deep into the skin pores because of their texture and consistency and promote radiant and brighter skin. Let’s take a look at which serum type is best for winter for your facial skin.

Vitamin C

An active antioxidant, it helps prevent our skin from free radicals and air pollution, improving the skin texture, and regeneration of cells as well.

Hyaluronic acid

Swiftly taking over the beauty market, it is a humectant that attracts moisture to your skin’s upper layer and prevents it from getting dry.

Niacinamide

Also known as nicotinamide, it is vitamin B3 that creates a protective barrier on the skin and protects it from drying up and from issues of inflammation as well.

Glycerine

Used in every Indian household in winter for the face and body, glycerine is a powerful component that improves the skin’s barrier function, prevents acne and breakout, and provides moisture and hydration to the skin.

Aloe vera oil or water

Aloe vera is a natural substance, wherein the oil or water quickly soothes, nourishes, and moisturises your skin, improving the overall elasticity of your skin.

Snail mucin

Snail mucin works perfectly on dry skin and thoroughly nourishes the pores. It swiftly seeps into your skin and quickly moisturises and hydrates in winter.

Retinol

If used properly retinol can be used in your winter skincare as winter lowers the UV rays which means you’re less likely to experience sun sensitivity while putting on a retinol-based product which is good for antiageing and hydrates the skin if used with a good moisturiser.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E makes the skin supple and soft, with a moisturised end which is much required in winter, whereas it also prevents your skin from wrinkles and fine lines.
