Winter season is always tough on the skin as the air loses moisture, thereby impacting your skin and overall health. Moreover, the combination of icy winds and drying indoor heat can make it worse. Our skin often asks for help during winter with visible signs of dryness, dullness, clogged pores, loss of elasticity and many other unique skin concerns.

While the beauty world is brimming with products that claim to transform your skin with instant visible results, these synthetic formulations often only provide instant gratification and short term benefits. The questions that arise are that if not these products, what should one trust to use? What are the products, and most importantly, the ingredients that one should include in their skincare regime to reap maximum benefits and achieve the much coveted winter glow?

We have the answers to all your questions! Read on as we suggest some of the most essential ingredients that you should definitely include for deeply nourished and healthy winter skin.

Shea Butter – Emollient and softening:

With a high concentration of fatty acids and vitamins, Shea Butter is renowned for numerous beauty benefits for the skin. This naturally emollient butter is rich in antioxidants and has age delaying properties. We suggest you explore the Shea Butter infused Forest Essentials’ Velvet Silk Body Creams that stimulate regeneration of skin cells to nourish and repair the skin. The rich blend of Ayurvedic herbs and anti-oxidants, lightly scent the skin and leave it feeling buttery soft and supple. These creams are available in fragrant floral and fruity variants that are intensely nourishing to treat the dry and sensitive skin.
