SOS Winter: The Shield Your Skin Needs

SOS Winter: The Shield Your Skin Needs

 

Soft, smooth skin — even in winter,

Winter can be just as harsh on your skin as strong summer sun. Cold air, icy wind, indoor
heating, and hot showers all work together to strip moisture from your skin. The result? Dryness, irritation, and skin that feels tight and uncomfortable.

Let’s explain what really happens to your skin in winter — and how to protect it.

Can winter damage your skin?

Yes. Winter weather is one of the main causes of dry, damaged skin.

1. Dryness and flaking

Cold air holds less moisture, and indoor heaters dry the air even more. This pulls water from your skin, leaving it:

  • Dry
  • Rough
  • Dull
  • Flaky

This is why skin often looks tired and uneven during winter months.

2. Damage to the skin barrier

Your skin has a natural protective layer made of oils (lipids). Hot showers and long baths — very common in winter — wash away this barrier.

When this happens, you may notice:

  • Itching
  • Redness
  • Irritation
  • Increased sensitivity

Without this barrier, your skin loses moisture faster and becomes more vulnerable.

3. Cracks and painful dry spots

When skin loses elasticity, it can crack — especially on:

  • Hands
  • Elbows
  • Knees
  • Lips

These cracks can be uncomfortable and sometimes painful.

4. Skin conditions can get worse

Cold, dry weather can trigger flare-ups of common skin conditions such as:

  • Eczema (atopic dermatitis)
  • Psoriasis                                                                                                                       
  • Rosacea

This makes gentle care and hydration even more important in winter.

5. Increased skin sensitivity

Cold temperatures cause blood vessels to narrow. When you move into warm environments, they expand again. This can lead to:

  • Redness
  • Blotchy skin
  • Increased sensitivity

How to protect your skin in winter?

One of the most important winter skincare steps is gentle exfoliation.

Exfoliating removes dead, dry skin so your moisturizers can actually work.

How Glow n’ Go Body Polish helps your skin

The Glow n’ Go Body Polish by Brazi Bronze works as a regenerating winter treatment.

Gently exfoliates dry skin by removing dead skin cells, your skin can:

  • Breathe
  • Renew itself
  • Absorb hydration more effectively

Helps restore the skin barrier

Winter strips away natural oils. This scrub helps replenish them with sweet almond oil, known for nourishing and softening dry skin.

Deep hydration after cold exposure

Ingredients like cocoa butter and coconut oil help:

  • Hydrate deeply
  • Restore elasticity
  • Soothe cracked and rough areas

Your skin feels softer, smoother, and more comfortable after every use.

Supports skin renewal

Regular exfoliation encourages healthy skin turnover, helping your skin look brighter and feel stronger throughout winter.

The takeaway

Winter skin care is about protection and repair.

When you:

  • Exfoliate gently
  • Restore moisture
  • Support your skin barrier

You help your skin stay soft, healthy, and glowing — even in extreme cold.

✨ Think of Glow n’ Go as your winter shield for silky skin all season long.
