Winter can be especially hard on the skin. With temperature drops, it’s common for skin to lose moisture and become dry and more sensitive. To help keep your skin hydrated, supple, and resilient, Irene has designed a winter skin facial routine you can follow at home 1-2 times per week. Inspired by our spa heritage, this routine brings deeper nourishment and protection to your skin, giving it the spa treatment it deserves – no appointments required.
Step 1: Cleanse with Almond Cleansing Milk
Start your winter facial with a clean canvas. Our Almond Cleansing Milk is a gentle, sulfate-free cream cleanser that hydrates and soothes without stripping the skin. Use gentle, circular motions to cleanse, then rinse with lukewarm water.
Step 2: Tone with Helichrysum Toner
Next, mist on the Helichrysum Toner to hydrate and plump. Packed with Hyaluronic Acid, this toner preps your skin to absorb the following steps more effectively.
Step 3: Exfoliate & Mask with Almond Face Scrub
Winter skin benefits from gentle exfoliation, and our Almond Face Scrub does just that. This multi-tasking scrub-mask, enriched with Hyaluronic Acid, smooths away dullness while maintaining hydration. Leave on for five minutes as a mask, before gently scrubbing need areas of the skin and rinsing off.
Step 4: Massage with Pistachio Face Oil
Increase blood flow, boost microcirculation, and sculpt the face with this Phytomelatonin-enriched face oil. Massage 1 – 2 pumps of oil onto the face, neck and décolleté with deep circular movements and other facial massage techniques.
Step 5: Apply Hibiscus Serum
Drawing its power from Myoxinol™, a neuropeptide extracted from Hibiscus Seeds, this multifaceted facial serum is clinically proven to visibly smooth wrinkles, delivering a more youthful-looking complexion. Combined with Green Pea Polypeptides and Tetrapeptide, it supports collagen and elastin, while Multi-Molecular Hyaluronic Acid hydrates and an Olive Oil and Tetra-Ceramide Complex nourishes the skin’s barrier. Apply 1-2 pumps of serum onto the face, neck and décolleté with circular upward motions.
Step 6: Apply Olive Eye Cream
After serum application, apply Olive Eye Cream with gentle taps and lightly massage excess product with circular motions around the eye area. This lightweight cream hydrates, reduces dark circles, and minimises puffiness with Hyaluronic Acid, a Phyto-Complex, a B-Vitamin Complex, and antioxidant-rich upcycled Olive Seed Oil.
Step 7: Finish with Hibiscus Night Cream
Smooth a generous layer of Hibiscus Night Cream over the face, neck, and décolleté. Powered by neuropeptide Myoxinol™, this rich, age-defying cream targets wrinkles and locks in moisture overnight with Hyaluronic Acid and an Omega-Rich Complex for a rejuvenated morning glow.
Irene’s Tip: Hibiscus Night Cream may also be used in the day by those with very dry, dehydrated, or mature skin who prefer a very rich texture. It is also excellent for use on any particularly dry areas of the face or body, such as the elbows.
Why This Winter Routine Works
Winter skincare should be all about moisture and barrier support. Ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid and Omega-rich oils work by attracting, retaining, and sealing in hydration. They help keep skin plump, smooth, and protected from dryness, irritation, and inflammation caused by cold weather.
