As the air turns crisp and the holiday season approaches, November is the perfect time to focus on your skin’s health. National Healthy Skin Month is a reminder that glowing, radiant skin starts with consistent care, especially during colder months when dryness, sensitivity, and dullness often appear.
At Coastal Dermatology + Aesthetics, we’re here to help you protect, nourish, and refresh your skin so you can step into the holidays with confidence.
Why Winter Skin Health Matters
While cooler temperatures can feel refreshing, they often strip the skin of its natural moisture. Combined with indoor heating, this can weaken the skin barrier, leading to dryness, redness, and irritation. Proper hydration and barrier support are essential to keeping your skin balanced, smooth, and resilient.
Here are three key ways to support your skin through the season:
- Hydrate and protect: Use a gentle cleanser and follow with a moisturizer that locks in hydration. Look for ingredients like hyaluronic acid, ceramides, and antioxidants.
- Don’t skip SPF: UV rays can cause premature aging and sun damage even in cloudy or cooler weather. Daily sunscreen use remains one of the best ways to protect your skin year-round.
- Support your barrier: Consider incorporating barrier-repair creams or treatments that strengthen your skin’s defenses against harsh environmental changes.
Expert Skincare Tips for a Winter Glow
- Upgrade your routine: Swap lightweight summer products for richer, more nourishing formulas to combat seasonal dryness.
- Add gentle exfoliation: Regular exfoliation helps remove dull, flaky skin and allows serums and moisturizers to absorb more effectively.
- Stay hydrated: Drinking enough water and using a humidifier can help maintain your skin’s moisture balance from the inside out.
- Book a professional treatment: Aesthetic treatments such as facials, chemical peels, or laser resurfacing can help refresh your complexion and enhance product absorption for glowing results.
