My skin becomes especially sensitive in the winter. Washing my face in the morning makes it feel tight, and when I put on makeup, it gets flaky and my skin looks flaky. So, even though I apply layers of moisturizer, I still feel my skin getting flaky in the afternoon.

Today, I'll share with you the reasons why your skin condition deteriorates in the winter, the skin problems that can arise, home skin care methods, and even helpful dermatological procedures!

1. Why skin condition deteriorates in winter

Skin condition can deteriorate rapidly, especially in winter, and it is said that this is not simply due to the cold, but rather a combination of several factors.

 

1) Frequent use of heating

In winter, we often use heating indoors, which can easily cause our skin to become dry and sensitive.

 

2) Indoor and outdoor temperature difference

Additionally, the difference in indoor and outdoor temperatures can worsen skin conditions. The skin's surface temperature rapidly drops due to cold wind, then rises again when you return indoors, repeatedly causing persistent stress on the skin.

 

3) Dry atmosphere

Additionally, because the humidity in the air is low, this can cause the skin to dry out and weaken the skin barrier function, leading to skin problems such as moisture loss and loss of elasticity.

2. Skin problems that can occur in winter

As explained above, if your skin condition deteriorates due to various reasons, you may experience the following skin problems.

 

1) Fine wrinkles

2) Rough skin texture

3) Loss of skin elasticity

4) Redness and fever

5) Weakening of the skin barrier

6) Facial tightness and puffiness

3. Winter Skin Care (Home Care)

Minimizing skin irritation is crucial for winter skin care. I'll share some winter skin care tips you can practice at home.

 

1) Proper face washing habits

It's important to avoid washing your face with hot water. Instead, use lukewarm water, and gently wash your face with a mild, slightly acidic cleanser to help maintain healthy skin.

2) Skin moisturizing care

It's also said that strengthening your basic moisturizing routine is crucial for winter skin care. It focuses on providing sufficient hydration and soothing skin. It's especially important to balance oil and moisture levels according to your skin type. Moisturizers should be applied within three minutes of washing your face.

3) Avoid excessive exfoliation

In particular, there are cases where people try to exfoliate excessively because they have dead skin cells, but it is recommended to refrain from doing so because strong exfoliation and skin friction can worsen the skin barrier.

 

4) Maintaining appropriate indoor humidity

For winter skin care, indoor humidity should be maintained at 40-60%, and it is important to maintain appropriate humidity by using a humidifier or wet towels.

4. Winter Skin Care (Dermatological Treatment)

If you're experiencing a decline in your overall skin condition, seeking help from a dermatologist may be an option. Here are some dermatological procedures that can help with winter skin care!
