Ah, winter. The season of soup, snuggly nights in and cosy knits. However, it’s worth remembering that all that hygge happens because the temperature’s dropped and the weather’s taken a turn – which has a huge impact on our skin.
Between nippy winds, biting cold, and the drying effects of indoor heating, our skin often ends up feeling dull, dehydrated, and in need of a little extra TLC. That’s where Sculpted by Aimee’s Winter Skin Saviours come in. Packed with soothing ingredients that cocoon skin and protect it against the elements, each product in this collection delivers intense hydration and nourishment to keep skin soft, glowing, and healthy.
Keep reading to find out more about the formulas behind our must-have winter skincare. Plus, learn what makes the chilly season so hard on your skin and how to curate the ideal winter skincare routine to help you tackle it.
Why is My Skin Dry in Winter?
Winter can be a tough season for your skin. Cold air outside and central heating inside create a constant moisture imbalance, leaving your skin feeling dry, tight, and irritated. Add to that the reduced humidity in the air, and your skin’s natural barrier can struggle to retain moisture. The result? Chapped, stinging lips, patches of flaky dryness, and an all-too-familiar dull complexion that has you reaching for anything to bring back a bit of radiance. Sound familiar? You’re not alone.
While it might be tempting to dip into your makeup bag – a dewy finish foundation or highlighter is sure to help give your skin its glow back, right? – it’s essential that you start with skincare. After all, true radiance comes from healthy, hydrated, well-nourished skin. Laying the groundwork with a skincare routine that locks in moisture and protects your skin barrier ensures you look and feel your best, with or without makeup.
The key is to reach for products that have been formulated with superhero hydrators and skin barrier boosters – think Hyaluronic Acid, Ceramides, Shea Butter, and Niacinamide. Together, these key actives help to draw moisture deep into your skin while repairing and strengthening its natural barrier. Water and nutrients that keep your skin plump, smooth and radiant are locked in while environmental aggressors are locked out. Maintaining this balance is essential to ensuring your skin looks and feels healthy all season long.
The Ultimate Winter Skincare Routine
Building the best winter skincare routine is a little bit like putting the perfect outfit together on a chilly day. The number one rule? Layer up. Always start with a hydrating serum, followed by a barrier-protecting moisturiser. Keep a versatile balm in your bag to help tackle chapped lips and skin on the go, and don’t forget about your body care!
When it comes to getting hydration deep into your skin, using a serum is the way to go. They often contain higher concentrations of those all-important actives and have a lighter texture that really sinks in.
HydraGlo is our skin-quenching, feather-light formula that packs a punch of hydration in every pump. Formulated with Hyaluronic Acid and Niacinamide, HydraGlo helps draw hydration deep into skin and improves overall tone and texture for a healthy, glowing finish.
Simply massage 1-2 pumps onto freshly cleansed skin. Apply before moisturiser for the best results.
Speaking of moisturiser, have you tried our bestselling CloudCream™? Packed with Ceramides and with a rich, whipped texture that’s somehow still light as air – we’re really proud of that – this standout formula is the best moisturiser for winter and the star of our winter skincare lineup.
Alongside Ceramides, which cushion and protect your skin barrier, CloudCream™ is also formulated with Shea Butter and Hyaluronic Acid for lasting moisture and hydration. CloudCream™ promises to deliver all this without feeling too thick or heavy, making it the perfect base for makeup and suitable for all skin types – including oily skin. Trust us when we say it’s the one thing your skin needs this season.
To use, apply a dollop to your skin after your serum has fully absorbed to lock in hydration. Allow it to soak in for a couple of minutes before applying SPF and makeup.
Winter can be especially harsh on your lips, leaving them dry, cracked, and feeling uncomfortable. That’s why we always keep a pot of Lip Treat in our bags during this time of year. Formulated with Shea Butter, Sodium Hyaluronate, and Sea Buckthorn, this rich, buttery balm soothes and hydrates even the driest lips in just one swipe.
We love using Lip Treat as an overnight mask – apply a thick layer before bed, and it will work its magic while you sleep, restoring moisture and nourishment so you wake up with smoother, softer, more supple lips. Alternatively, apply a thin layer throughout the day to keep your lips plump, smooth, and protected from the elements.
Winter skin care isn’t just about your face—your entire body deserves some love, too. That’s where our HydraBody Nourishing Oil comes in. Designed to deliver a full-body glow, this velvety, lightweight formula ensures your skin feels pampered from head to toe.
Formulated with Avocado Oil, this indulgent body treatment deeply nourishes dull, uneven skin, leaving it smoother, softer, and naturally radiant. Plus, HydraBody Nourishing Oil is infused with our signature Sweet Orchid scent, ensuring your skin smells incredible all day long.
Bonus points for its fast-absorbing texture: it sinks in instantly without leaving any greasy residue, making it ideal for daily use – even when you’re on the go. Who says you can’t pamper yourself while staying productive?
To use, apply generously after showering. Massage the oil onto damp skin to lock in hydration and enhance your skin’s natural radiance.
For targeted relief and a little extra TLC where needed, Beauty Balm is what we reach for. It’s the ultimate do-it-all product for skin that’s craving comfort. Whether you’re dealing with dry patches, chapped hands, or flaky skin around your nose and lips, this creamy, colourless melt-away balm delivers instant hydration and repair.
Formulated with Hyaluronic Acid, Shea Butter, and Centella Asiatica, it works to soothe irritation, lock in moisture, and repair the skin’s barrier. Keep it on hand for on-the-go nourishment and use it as needed for a quick rescue wherever your skin needs extra care.
