4 key points in seasonal maintenance! Autumn and winter care principles that sensitive skin must know

換季保養 4 重點!敏感肌必知的秋冬保養原則 - LEMOI-PEAU

The temperature difference between day and night has been significant lately, and we're gradually feeling the approach of the changing seasons. During this transitional period, the fluctuating temperatures make it easy to catch a cold, so remember to bring a light jacket when going out. But it's not just the body that gets sick; the skin is also prone to problems! This is especially true for those with sensitive skin, who are more likely to experience discomfort during this season. Today lemoi-peau is here to share some tips on how to keep your skin from acting up during seasonal changes/autumn/winter!

Skincare in spring and summer is very different from skincare in autumn and winter.


In summer, due to the stronger ultraviolet rays, skincare focuses on hydration, sun protection, and avoiding overly heavy skincare products to prevent excessive oil production and clogged pores. In winter, because of the lower temperature and humidity, skin blood vessels constrict less, making it easier to lose moisture. Therefore, skincare focuses on nourishing, locking in essence, and adjusting to moisturizing.

4 Key Points for Autumn/Winter Seasonal Skincare

  1. Avoid washing your face with hot water.
    As the weather gets colder, it's tempting to turn up the water temperature when you turn on the tap. However, excessively hot water can damage the skin and cause sensitivity. Therefore, even in winter, it's important to use water that is about 30 degrees Celsius cooler than body temperature for washing.
  2. Gradual and zoned maintenance
    Summer calls for a refreshing feel, while winter calls for moisturizing. So what should you do when the seasons change? At this time, you can use a light and refreshing skincare product as a base, and then choose areas that are less prone to oiliness to gradually switch to a moisturizing skincare product. For example, avoid the T-zone and start by using it on your cheeks.
  3. Avoid harsh skincare products and excessive cleaning.
    During seasonal transitions, the large temperature differences can cause more noticeable reactions in people with sensitive skin, such as redness and flaking. At this time, it is even more important to focus on gentle skincare, avoiding over-cleansing and ensuring the skin receives sufficient hydration.
  4. Reduce the frequency of exfoliation
    If you have a habit of exfoliating regularly in the summer, you should reduce the frequency when the seasons change to avoid damaging your skin.

Sensitive skin beware! Skin is more prone to irritation during seasonal changes.

Sensitive skin is often affected by external factors such as excessive sun exposure, unstable weather, and air pollution. Therefore, people with sensitive skin should pay more attention to their skin condition during seasonal changes to avoid accidentally causing skin discomfort.

When switching skincare products, remember to do a patch test first to allow your skin to gradually adapt to the new ingredients. Avoid switching all at once. If you encounter ingredients that are not suitable for you, you may need to put in more effort to care for your skin and restore it to a healthy state.

Don't forget about body care! Pay special attention to these areas.
