ORalmond oil, shea butter and then hyaluronic acid and antioxidant extracts of ingredients such as cranberries: this is it “recipe” for cold creams, face creams very rich and repairing, designed to nourish the skin when temperatures approach 0°. Must have in the city and even more so in the mountains.
Cold Cream, because it is indispensable in winter
Sometimes the classic face cream, however nourishing and hydrating, may not be enough. When temperatures hover around 0°, whether in the city or in the mountains, the skin needs extra protection and nourishment.
The English expression “cold cream” indicates all of those particularly rich and highly nourishing creams that create a real protective shield on the skin. For this reason, the formulations contain more or less all the same ingredients.
Because using such a rich cream is very simple;: low temperatures they affect the hydrolipidic film, that is, that very thin protective layer of the skin composed of sebum and water that retains the latter so that it does not evaporate.
Extra help for the skin barrier
When the skin begins to tighten and dry in winter it is because the hydrolipidic film is compromised: the lipid component that composes it begins to deplete, affecting the hydration reserve function.
To take action, a good cold cream creates a real protective shield on the skin with specific ingredients, primarily ceramides and vegetable butters, repairing and multitasking, i.e. hydrating, soothing, anti-redness.
Cold creams are suitable for everyone, from babies to adults
This type of creams are perfect for the whole family, including babies. Fragile and very sensitive skin is ageless: these formulations with such rich and dense consistencies take care of it all.
Indispensable, therefore, during holidays in the mountains, where temperature they have even more important effects on the skin, especially on the cheeks and cheekbones area, which are the most exposed.
A word of caution though: compared to many winter formulations, the Cold creams do not contain sun protection factor. Then, after having spread them on her face, It is essential to apply a sunscreen with a very high SPFespecially at high altitudes.
