If you’ve been looking to learn more about how to nourish your dry skin with clean beauty and skincare, you’re in luck! This blog is here to guide you through the top winter skin care tips and tricks for glowing winter skin - and help you say goodbye to dry for good!

Incorporate Clean, Skin-Loving Ingredients

It’s time to incorporate clean into your daily routine! Clean ingredients in both beauty and skincare are the key to achieving healthy hydration without risking irritation. So the next time you’re on the prowl for skin hydration products, here are a few clean, hydrating ingredients to look out for: 

Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance found throughout the body’s connective tissue. It’s one of the key components of your skin’s structure, responsible for giving your skin that plump and dewy look. When applied to the skin, hyaluronic acid locks in moisture and helps to reduce dermatitis, redness, and wrinkles. 

Adding hyaluronic acid to your skincare routine is a great way to bring your skin that extra boost of moisture. If you’re looking for head-to-toe hyaluronic hydration, try pairing jane iredale’s BeautyPrep™ Hyaluronic Serum with Blossom Essential’s Rosa daily body moisturizer and let your glowing skin speak for itself. 

But don’t stop there, you can also look for beauty products that incorporate hyaluronic acid into their formulas. This is a great way to boost the benefits of hyaluronic acid while still maintaining your regular makeup routine. jane iredale has everything from HydroPure™ Hyaluronic Lip Gloss to Face Primer to Foundation, to meet all of your moisture needs! 

Natural Oils

When it comes to clean hydration, natural oils are another must-have ingredient. For dry skin symptoms like itching, inflammation, and redness try skincare products that incorporate coconut oil or tea tree oil, like Blossom Essential’s Honeybutter hydration salve!

And when searching for powerful and effective natural oils in your beauty products, jojoba oil is the way to go. A natural face oil, jojoba might not be as well known as coconut oil or avocado oil, but powerful moisturizing properties make it the perfect ingredient to add to your beauty regimen. In fact, it’s so good it can even be found in over 20 jane iredale products, including: BeautyPrep Face Moisturizer, Dream Tint Tinted Moisturizer, HandDrink Hand Cream, PureMoist Lipstick and Smooth Affair for Oily Skin Facial Primer. Talk about worth the hype! 

Aloe Vera

Aloe vera is a hydration hero! Its powerful moisturizing properties help to alleviate itching, redness, and so many other dry skin symptoms. If you’re looking to find the right aloe vera products for your dry skin, look no further! Blossom Essentials’ Honeybutter body salve, Rosa daily moisturizer, Lotus scalp oil, and Dandy shower gel all contain aloe vera for its intense moisture and antibacterial properties.

And aloe is not just amazing in skincare products! jane iredale’s Liquid Minerals Foundation also features aloe leaf juice to keep your skin hydrated while still providing long-lasting coverage. 

Say Yes to Supplements

We’re often told that topicals and creams are the key to moisturized skin, but it’s equally important to hydrate your skin from within. Skin supplements, especially ones with the right balance of vitamins and nutrients, can do wonders for your skin. 

When searching for supplements for dry skin, make sure you look for ones with skin-loving vitamins. Blossom Essential’s Lilium hydration supplements are packed with a powerful blend of essential vitamins and nutrients like Vitamin A, Vitamin C, collagen, and zinc, designed to soothe inflammation and hydrate skin at the cell level. These supplements can also enhance your skin’s natural cellular turnover process, helping to regenerate and rejuvenate skin from the inside out. 

Supplements with omega fatty acids are another hydration must-have. jane iredale’s Advanced Nutrition Programme Skin Omegas feature a nourishing blend of omega fatty acids like omega-3 from fish oil, omega-6 from primrose oil, as well as vitamin A, all of which promote internal moisture and a healthy lipid layer. These ingredients are amazing for all skin types, but especially if you’re looking to transform your dry, flaky areas into soft, smooth skin.

Revamp Your Winter Routine

The key to treating and supporting your dry skin is all in the routine. Start your skincare routine for dry skin off strong with a hydrating and softening body cream, like Blossom Essential’s nourishing Rosa moisturizer. If you’re looking to kick it up a notch with an intense hydration spot treatment you can also try Blossom’s top-rated Honeybutter body salve. 

When it comes to makeup, you want to make sure you’re using products that won’t exacerbate your dry skin, and better yet, will help you further treat it. If this seems like a long shot, allow me to introduce you to jane iredale’s entire beauty collection.
