I Love winters in Karachi, I really do. I love the clean, dry atmosphere, The layering of clothes, hot coffee mug in bare hands, mittens and boots, everything...almost. I can't stand cold water or getting wet in anyway in winters, brrrr. This unfortunately makes me a bit of a skin care bum. SIGH :(
In non-wintery circumstances I wash my face at least thrice a day. Morning, after I come back from work and then before going to bed at night. I use a Lighter face wash for night as I had already washed my properly after I get home from work. On a day off I wash my face twice, day and night.
During winters I try my best to wash it thoroughly once and the rest of the time its more of a splash and dash! I was not too proud of myself until I figured out a better Winter Care Regime :)
I decided to THOROUGHLY wash my face, scrub a dub, after I came home from work because that is when my face has been exposed the most to dirt, pollution and what not. The morning and night is a splash my face and dash BUT I also used Wet wipes to get rid of extra dirt, germs and leftover makeup, if any.
The three saviors of my Winter skin care regime have been the following:
L'Oreal Pure Zone Deep Purifying Cleansing Wipes:
- Great alternate for times when you just cant handle the cold water on your face and neck!
- It thoroughly cleans your skin.
- Great for acne prone skin as it contains Salicylic Acid
- Can also be used as a Makeup remover (avoid eyes) and blotting paper
- 25 cleansing wipes which are soft and easy on the skin
- Only for Rs. PKR 225/- (Great Buy)
L'Oreal White Perfect Night repair Cream:
At night after face cleansing I have started using this and so far very satisfied.
- Super moisturizing and Skin feels supple and soft
- Light formula
- Gets rid of Dullness and makes uneven skin tone much better
- I Dont look like a Puffy fish when I wake up next morning. I actually look rested.
- Only Small amount enough for entire face
- Works great in winters
- PKR 850/- (Great Buy)
Garnier BB Cream:
What can I say. This cream has become my best friend. I have one in my bag at all times and one on my dressing table. When I am rushing out this is a great Multipurpose solution which I quickly dab on and ready to get set go!
- Moisturizing
- Skin Clearing
- Light coverage
- SPF 15
. . . and much much more for just PKR 399/- (PKR 449 at Just4girls)

It may be strange, but i read it somewhere that one should not apply anyhting on face at night. At least, let it breath at night since then i do not use anything on my skin before bed. I used BB once it didnt suit me. So, only thing that left is cleansing wipes and i love these :) :)
ReplyDeleteThat's apparently a Myth Nida. A good moisturizer doesn't clog pores :) and your skin breathes fine. Telling you from Experience.
DeleteI love to apply oil of olay natural fluid at night !
ReplyDeletei have to try this garnier bb , heard so many good things about it
ReplyDeleteIts really good :) but if you have super greasy skin dont apply too much and cleanse properly before application :)
DeleteThank you so much for the tips. I am now actually relieved to know that I have been already following these tips for my skin prior to reading this article. Thank you and keep writing such profitable blog posts.

I rarely buy any product specifically for winters as they don't last much here in karachi and I end up having the same bottles for years.
ReplyDeleteI too have combo/oily skin, started using olay beauty fluid as a night time cream and quite happy with it. Do suggest any good face wash, toner, scrub and mask for our skin tone in summers. I have been using body shop's Seaweed facewash and toner but not really happy. Tried the mask from the latest origlow trend here but was quite a let down. Also used body shop's vitamin c exfoliator; found it okayish. May be it's just my skin not responding to anything :/
Looking forward to your suggestions. ☺
Hi, thanks for such an interesting post :-) I have to admit that I am not very fond of winters, mainly because they seem kind of endless in Germany! I do love summers, though. It's not very humid as the temperature rarely goes above 28 degrees Celsius and the only negative is that the season doesn't last long! Anyway, I will definitely check out the night cream you reviewed as I am always on the lookout for products that satisfy the requirements that you mentioned :-) Thanks again, for sharing about it!
ReplyDeleteThank you for commenting, have a nice day!
