switch your routine with these WINTER SKINCARE TIPS BY DR. GEETIKA MITTAL GUPTA

The winter season can be a good change for some of us, but can take a toll on your skin. Cold weather and low humidity levels result in dry air, which then steals moisture away from the skin every second of every day. Without immediate care, dry skin can lead to cracking and bleeding, and harsh winter wind makes the problem worse. It’s important to remember, just because a specific product was your holy grail in summer doesn’t mean that it is what’s best for your skin in winter. 

Winter Skincare Tips By Dr. Geetika Mittal Gupta, ISAAC Luxe

• As a first step, you need to continue with your CTM routine but if your skin feels dry and itchy it’s time to switch to more hydrating CTM products. It may make sense to switch to a milky cleanser or soap-free formula that won’t disrupt your skin’s protective lipid barrier.
• Also, avoid washing your face excessively(twice a day is enough). Reduce the number of times you apply toner after cleansing and use toners with no or low alcohol levels.
• To combat the dryness moisturize at least twice daily. Preferably in the morning and before bed. And our moisturizer should match the season, use thicker creams/hydrating moisturizers. Hydrating serums/face oil would really help your skin in the season.
• Add moisture to the inside air by turning on a humidifier. If you don’t have one, place a pan of water near a radiator or heat source.
• Try to take shorter, warmer showers and baths since it strips away body oils. Try to give yourself a quick body massage with coconut or almond oil.
• Add moisture to your body by using emollient-based soaps, lotions, and creams.
• Make sure you don’t skip suncreen for that winter sun!

korean beauty facial for extra hydration: water shine glow

So, if you’ve always craved for that dewy skin without using any makeup, you should try Water Shine Glow. An exclusive treatment @isaacluxe, Water Shine Glow is all about giving your skin an extra dose of hydration and gets one step closer to glowing skin. We gently inject hyaluronic acid to your face with the help of a mesogun that has microneedles that help infuse hydrating elements to your skin. Hyaluronic acid is naturally found in our bodies but as we get older, our body gets depleted of it. Injecting hyaluronic acid helps plump your skin and lock moisture between skin layers and also avoid signs of aging.

Since this helps retains moisture, the Water Shine Glow treatment is suitable for anyone that wants to enjoy a natural glow and shine without using any makeup. Since it’s more superficial than a filler, it can be done as often as twice a month. Short on time and high on results, the Water Shine Glow gives you immediate results in the first sitting. After your face is cleansed and prepped, your doc will use a mesogun, a handheld device with tiny needles to infuse hyaluronic acid on parts of your face. You may feel a little prick but you will not feel pain nonetheless. The treatment will end with a face mask to soothe and calm your skin.
