A lot has already been said about the aggressive effects of sunlight, but even in the cold season, our skin needs special protection. The main task: to choose the right nourishing face cream for the winter.
Perfect composition
Many girls and women have experienced hypersensitivity, peeling and dryness after encountering a frosty wind. Add dehydration and vitamin deficiency to weather conditions - a moisturizer or a light fluid will definitely not be able to cope with such problems.
Nourishing face cream for the winter for 70% consists of oils and fats. Pay attention to the contents of the following components:
- vitamins C, E and A;
- antioxidants;
- panthenol;
- natural oils (cocoa, olive, jojoba, peach, wheat germ, avocado);
- herbal extracts (chamomile, calendula).
“Luxury Food”
Based on the reviews of the fair sex, we have compiled a small rating of the most popular funds.
The L'Oreal brand is in fifth place. If you don't know which creamfaces are better in winter, we advise you to try a budget option - “Luxury Nutrition” cream-oil (cost 500-600 rubles).
In the composition - royal jelly, valuable oils and a unique complex that restores the natural protective function. Luxurious, non-greasy texture and visible results in four weeks are guaranteed by L'Oreal experts.
Customer reviews note the great appearance - a golden jar with a mirror lid. The texture of the cream is very thick, but it is quite easy to apply on the skin. Already after the first application, "Luxury nutrition" relieves the feeling of tightness and peeling, but the effect lasts for several hours.
Flaws:
- "heavy" flavor;
- feeling of the mask on the face until completely absorbed;
- not suitable for oily skin;
- royal jelly can cause allergies.
Shea butter
Protective face creams in winter are in high demand. In fourth place in our rating was a guest from Provence - “Ultra-Nourishing Cream-Comfort Shea” by the French brand l’Occitane.
Special formula with 25% shea butter to nourish and soften skin. Chemical filters protect from the sun's rays, while natural beet and wheat sugars protect against various climatic conditions.
Despite the dense texture, the cream is well absorbed and leaves no shine. Contains no artificial colorsparabens and mineral oils. The product is suitable for pregnant and lactating mothers, does not cause allergies.
Some protective face creams are very difficult for the skin to perceive in winter, but this has nothing to do with the creation of l’Occitane cosmetologists. “Ultra-Nourishing Shea Cream” makes the skin velvety, quickly eliminates dryness and flaking. Easily absorbed and leaves no greasy residue. Economical consumption and neutral smell - the cream is suitable for owners of dry and combination skin.
As for the shortcomings, most often reviews note a high price - a little more than 2500 rubles (50 ml). Customers recommend using a face soap from the Shea series along with the cream.
“Aevit”
Many girls wonder what face cream to use in winter. Recently, Russian cosmetics Librederm has been gaining popularity.
Nourishing cream, presented in the Aevit series, provides comprehensive care: tones, slows down the aging process of cells, refreshes, has a regenerating and antioxidant effect. It contains a combination of vitamins A and E, as well as a blend of raspberry, edelweiss and rosemary extracts.
Customers note the modest design and convenient packaging - a small bottle with a dispenser. It is believed that the best face cream for winter must be dense and hard to spread over the skin. The consistency of "Aevit" pleasantly surprises with its weightlessness. The cream is quickly absorbed and does not leave a “film” on the face, can be used as a base undermakeup. Suitable for all skin types. Price: 180-220 rubles.
Avene
In search of suitable cosmetics, girls and women increasingly prefer “pharmacy” brands. Nourishing face cream for the winter is presented in the collection of the French manufacturer Avene.
Nourishing Compensating Cream is suitable for daily care of sensitive and dry skin. A special combination of trio-lipids prevents dehydration, while Avene thermal water gently soothes and relieves irritation.
The massive jar of cream comes with a small spatula to extract the cream. The product does an excellent job with the feeling of tightness and peeling, does not cause breakouts or clog pores.
Beauticians also recommend using Avene Nourishing Cream after aggressive treatments such as chemical peels. Price: 1500-1800 rubles.
Natural cosmetics lovers avoid Avene products because of the composition, saturated with mineral oils, silicones and preservatives. But the fact is that it is natural ingredients that can cause allergies, so owners of problematic and sensitive skin are more suitable for just such a “chemical” composition.
Nutritic Intense
Fans of the La Roche brand do not have a question which face cream to use in winter. At the top of our ranking is Nutritic Intense, an ultra-nourishing rich cream containing next-generation MP-lipids. This active ingredient restores natural defenses. Besides, inthe composition contains branded thermal water and shea butter.
Clinical studies have proven the efficacy of La Roche Winter Cream.
After the first application, unpleasant sensations of tightness disappear - comfort for the whole day is provided by a “pharmacy” face cream in winter. Reviews of the fair sex recommend using the product at night or in the morning 15-20 minutes before applying makeup.
Flaws:
- uncomfortable tube;
- testing La Roche cosmetics on animals.
Beautician Tips
You should not choose cosmetics, focusing only on customer reviews. It is almost impossible to guess which cream is right for you. The ideal option is to get samples, but sometimes even the quality of the product in large and small format is very different.
In the cold season, the skin needs increased attention, but this applies not only to the purchase of suitable cosmetics, but also to our habits. After returning home, do not rush to go to the hottest room - sudden temperature changes can cause irritation. Once or twice a week, the face should be pampered with peeling or scrub.
Beauticians advise using creams, foams and lotions from the same line - then you will know for sure that the products do not interfere with each other's "work". Hygienic lipstick, foundation and nourishing face cream for the winter are the three main allies in the fight against the frosty wind.
