A skincare guru has shared the best way to look after your skin in winter, including five things not to do. Jamie Nicole, who boasts over 600,000 followers on TikTok, has dished out her top five winter skincare tips that she wishes she'd known earlier.
In a candid clip, Jamie reveals the essential things everyone "need to know about winter skincare before it's too late," and it could have a huge impact on your routine. She emphasises that everything from your skin type to the products you use can impact your skin during the chilly season, as weather and environmental conditions shift dramatically. Being prepared is key, according to Jamie. Her number one piece of advice is to "pay attention to your skin type" and be ready to "change your routine".
Jamie explains: "Your skin type can literally change based on weather and environment. In the summer, my skin is very normal and doesn't require much maintenance but when it's the winter time, I have severely dry skin.". She urges followers to be aware that their skincare routine may need significant adjustments with the onset of winter. Another nugget of wisdom she shares relates to hydration; she suggests that you might not need thicker face creams if you're drinking enough water.
Jamie warns: "I think the biggest mistake that we make is that our skin is drying out and we need to hydrate it, and then we end up clogging our pores.". Jamie advised switching up your skincare routine for better results, dispelling the idea that heavy creams are always the answer. "This has happened to me and instead of getting a very heavy moisturiser, try relying more on serums like hyaluronic acid, and looking for lightweight moisturisers".
