Milk has been used as a skin treatment for centuries now. Legend has it that even Cleopatra would take regular milk baths to improve her skin. Today, while we appreciate the goodness of milk in skincare, few have the time or patience to incorporate this super-ingredient in their routines. Milk in skincare isn’t just a trend – it’s tradition with a scientific backing. Milk-infused skincare harnesses the gentle yet nourishing properties of the ingredient. Rich in vitamins and minerals, milk-based products provide deep hydration, soothing comfort, and an unmatched natural glow.
But now, the only thing standing in your way to glowing skin is the season. Winter is harsh on the skin and tends to dry it out, leaving it more damaged than you can imagine. Thankfully, there are conscious changes you can make to ensure that harsh weather is easier on the skin. There’s no better time to indulge in a few comfy scarves, coats, and winter skincare products that give your skin a little extra protection this season.
Neude Skin, a holistic brand I recently discovered, brings comfort to skincare. Powered by the science of milk, their unique products utilise the hydrating, nourishing, soothing, and elevating properties of milk in various forms, along with modern skincare actives. They’re a no-brainer when it comes to picking the right winter skincare products. Here are four of their must-have skincare products for all skin types that will change your skincare game this season!
Face Mask
FaceTime! – The 15 Minute Face Mask For An Instant Glow.
A deliciously smooth texture and star ingredient is yogurt supercharged with orange oil and bergamot oil.
The FaceTime Instant Facial is a wash-off facial that’s infused with a variety of luscious ingredients that give your skin a lasting, healthy Hi-Glaze glow in just 15 minutes. The yogurt filtrate tightens the skin and shrinks the pores while effectively de-tanning the skin. Orange Oil reduces excess oil and significantly brightens the skin while Bergamot oil helps with acne due to its antiseptic properties. Furthermore, the addition of sunflower seed oil and kojic acid in this face mask helps reduce age spots and effectively protects your skin from progressive signs of ageing, making it the perfect skincare product for all skin types.
The overall texture of the mask is smooth, and carefully formulated to stay soft on the skin.
Recommended Usage:
Since it’s a wash-off mask, you can use it before bed in the morning or at night. We recommend using it at least 2-3 times a week to see results.
Face Serum
SkinGenesis – The All-in-one Face Super Serum For Hi-Glaze Skin
In this fast-paced world, who has the time for a multi-step routine? I know I don’t and that’s where the SkinGenesis comes in. It’s not just a serum, but a promise of radiance and rejuvenation without a multitude of products cluttering your vanity!
Formulated with the powerhouse of serums: lactic acid, niacinamide, and hyaluronic acid, this serum works triple time to deliver an even skin tone, repair, and hydrate your skin. The lactic acid lightens dark spots and pigmentation, niacinamide evens out skin tone and protects and repairs the skin barrier, while hyaluronic acid ensures optimum hydration for your skin. What’s more? Instead of confusing yourself with multiple serums, here’s a single product that takes care of it all. All these ingredients make it the perfect skincare product for dry skin.
The texture is lightweight yet super hydrating, smooth, and transparent. It’s the type of serum that’s absorbed in seconds and leaves your skin feeling irresistibly plump and bouncy to the touch. Trust me, this is the multitasking miracle your skin has been waiting for!
Recommended Usage:
This serum can be used as a part of your AM/PM routine, daily. Use consistently for 2-3 months for best results.
Face Moisturiser
Butter Mousse – A Non-Greasy Ghee Moisturiser For Winter Dry Skin
If you deal with insanely dry skin in the winter, an essential in your vanity is the luxurious Butter Mousse. It’s a delightfully indulgent, yet completely lightweight hydrator, that’s more than just a moisturiser.
This weightless formulation brings together three powerful lipids: Ghee softens and hydrates, kokum butter regenerates the skin, and vitamin E from the organic almond oil acts as a natural antioxidant that protects the skin from free radicals and pollution. This holistic moisturiser further works to soften the skin while the rose water refreshes and gives your skin that coveted ultra-hydrated feel. Together they deeply nourish, restore elasticity and suppleness, and reverse obvious signs of ageing making it perfect to target dry skin.
Furthermore, the texture of the whipped ghee is unlike any other moisturiser you might have used before. Airlight and weightless yet offering skin-deep hydration without the expected greasiness!
Recommended Usage:
Since it’s a moisturiser, you can use it as a part of your AM/PM routine, daily.
Sun Care
Sunstoppable SPF45 – A Milk Based, Broad Spectrum Everyday Mineral Sunscreen
Last on the list we have the perfect shield for your skin. This isn’t just any sunscreen, it’s your next favourite one thanks to the presence of skin-loving ingredients.
The Sunstoppable SPF45 is infused with the goodness of supercharged milk skincare. Avocado oil is an organic sun protection agent that is full of antioxidants which ensures the sunscreen protects against pollution as well as free radicals. Almond oil helps hydrate and nourish the skin and zinc oxide provides broad-spectrum sun protection. However, the unique addition of milk helps reduce inflammation as lactic acid works to reduce dark spots and repairs tan as well as UV damage. What we love about this product is that it spreads like a moisturiser on the skin and keeps the skin hydrated. What could be a better winter skincare product than a sunscreen that moisturises, protects, and repairs skin?
The overall texture of the sunscreen is unique: light, creamy, and devoid of that pesky white cast, making it the perfect skincare product for oily skin too!
Recommended Usage:
Since it’s a sunscreen, you can use it as a part of your daily morning skincare routine. Apply after cleansing and moisturising your skin. Re-apply throughout the day as required!
Embracing winter with the right skincare is crucial, and Neude Skin’s milk-infused range is a game-changer. These products are the epitome of nature and science, ensuring your skin stays nourished, protected, and radiant throughout the chilly season.
