Winter is harsh on the skin—cold winds and low humidity steal away natural oils, leaving your skin dry and flaky. But what should you use to protect your skin: cold cream or moisturizer lotion? Let’s break it down.
Cold Cream
- Thick and rich in texture.
- Provides intense nourishment and protection.
- Best for very dry or flaky skin.
- Works well as an overnight cream.
Moisturizer Lotion
- Lightweight and quick-absorbing.
- Keeps skin hydrated throughout the day.
- Suitable for daily use, even on normal to oily skin.
- Perfect for morning routines and layering under makeup.
How to Choose Between Them
- Very Dry Skin → Cold Cream at night.
- Normal/Dry Skin → Moisturizer Lotion during the day, Cold Cream at night.
- Oily Skin → Light Moisturizer Lotion only.
Conclusion
Instead of choosing one, use both—cold cream for overnight nourishment and moisturizer lotion for daily hydration. This combo keeps your skin soft and radiant all winter long.
