Winter is more damaging to the skin than any other season, as
the dry air outdoors – coupled with fierce indoor heating – wreaks
havoc with your epidermis. In order to combat the harsh elements,
we've selected some choice moisturizers to help you tackle the dry,
bitter, cold Beijing air.
Vichy Aqualia Thermal Rich Cream – (RMB 178/50ml)
This rich cream uses unique thermal spa water to help stimulate
epidermal skin cell renewal and reinforce your skin's natural
protective function. The cream is refreshing, non-greasy, and
easily absorbed by the skin – a moisturizer for everyone,
regardless of age, skin type or condition.
Estee Lauder – Nutritious Restorative Night Creme (RMB 580/50ml)
One of the best ways to care for your skin is to sleep on it.
This restorative night cream provides instant moisture,
replenishing and stimulating natural skin hydration. By building up
overnight reservoirs of moisture, your skin appears much softer and
fresher the next day.
L'Occitane – 24 Hours Ultra Rich Face Cream (RMB 390/50ml)
The main ingredient in this luscious face cream is concentrated
shea butter, which is complemented by chestnut extracts and wheat
protein. These construct a hydrolipidic film in order to restore
the skin's balance, defending it against harsh environmental
conditions. The result is smooth and silky-soft skin.
