5 Reasons Why Your Dry Skin Needs Facial Oils This Winter

Slay All Day Facial Oil by HotChi

1. Facial Oils Provide Deep Hydration

During winter, the skin’s natural moisture levels drop due to harsh weather conditions. Facial oils penetrate deeply into your skin, replenishing lost moisture and creating a protective barrier to prevent water loss. Ingredients like macadamia and avocado oils, found in HotChi’s facial oils, are especially effective for locking in hydration and soothing dryness.

2. They Repair and Strengthen Your Skin Barrier

Cold weather can weaken your skin barrier, making it more prone to irritation, redness, and flakiness. Facial oils restore essential lipids, helping to repair your barrier and protect your skin from environmental stressors like wind and pollution. HotChi’s Slay All Day Facial Oil is packed with macadamia oil to strengthen your skin barrier and lavender oil to soothe irritation.

3. They Combat Winter Redness and Irritation

Dry skin often becomes more reactive in winter, leading to redness and irritation. The soothing properties of facial oils, such as pomegranate and lavender, calm inflammation and reduce redness, making your skin look and feel more comfortable. HotChi’s Bring Your Fire Facial Oil is ideal for calming winter skin woes.

4. Facial Oils Boost Radiance

Winter often leaves the skin looking dull and lifeless. Facial oils are rich in antioxidants and vitamins that revive your complexion and restore a healthy glow. Ingredients like avocado and pomegranate oils, found in HotChi’s Shake It Up Facial Oil, nourish your skin while enhancing its natural radiance.

5. They Protect Against Harsh Winter Conditions

Facial oils form a protective layer on your skin, shielding it from the harsh winter elements. This added layer not only locks in moisture but also protects your skin from environmental aggressors like cold wind and dry indoor air. By incorporating HotChi’s facial oils into your routine, you can ensure your skin stays resilient throughout the season.

How to Use Facial Oils for Dry Skin This Winter

1. Cleanse Gently

Start with a hydrating cleanser to remove impurities without stripping your skin of its natural oils.

2. Prep Your Skin

Apply a hydrating toner or serum to provide a base layer of moisture.

3. Breathe and Massage

Warm 2-3 drops of your chosen HotChi facial oil between your palms. Hold your hands close to your face, inhale deeply to relax, and gently massage the oil into your skin using upward motions.
