After panic-ordering a bulk supply of leggings and tights during a particularly chilly 13-degree day in London this week, it seems pretty evident to me that winter is well on its way. And while we might have a couple of months until the official start of the season (FYI, winter begins December 22 here in the UK), I’ve already started making some product swaps for the season ahead.
Yes, that’s right: Winter isn’t just about embracing the chicest dress-and-boot-combos and prepping for party dressing—it’s about switching up your usual skincare routine to season-proof it for the time of year. Turns out, though, most of us stick with the same skincare products no matter the weather or time of year. And according to cosmetic dermatology GP Nyla Raja, MD, that might just be where we’re all going wrong with our autumn/winter skincare.
