Winter Skincare: How to Choose the Right Moisturiser for Your Skin Type
As the temperature dips and winter settles in, so does the shift in how our skin behaves. You may notice more tightness, sensitivity, or dry patches. That’s your skin barrier waving a little white flag asking for extra support. Winter is the perfect time to reset your routine and reassess whether your current moisturiser is giving your skin what it truly needs.
But with so many options out there, how do you know which moisturiser is best suited for your skin type?
At Bare Beauty Studio, we believe in personalised skincare that works with your skin and not against it. Whether you’re battling dryness, feeling extra sensitive, or just want to maintain your healthy glow, here’s a breakdown of our go-to winter moisturisers for every skin type and situation.
Dermaviduals DMS® Base Cream Classic
A staple in any barrier-supporting routine. This cream mimics the skin’s natural structure, making it an ideal daily moisturiser for those with balanced to slightly dry skin. Lightweight but effective, it nourishes without clogging pores.
Dermaviduals DMS Base Cream High Classic
Need a little more from your moisturiser? The High Classic version is a richer formula that offers deeper hydration for dry or lipid-dry skin. Ideal for colder days or post-treatment recovery.
Dermaviduals DMS Base Cream High Classic Plus
Think of this one as your winter coat in a jar. Intensely nourishing and restorative, it’s perfect for compromised skin, extreme climates, or when your barrier needs some serious TLC.
Medik8 Advanced Day Ultimate Protect
Looking for powerful sun protection and anti-ageing support in one? This moisturiser offers advanced DNA repair enzymes, blue light defence, pollution shield technology and broad-spectrum SPF 50+. Ideal for those wanting a deeply protective day cream without compromising on hydration.
Medik8 Advanced Night Restore
Night-time is when the skin regenerates, and this advanced night cream supports that process with ceramides and peptides. It’s great for mature, stressed, or dry skin that needs overnight repair.
Medik8 Daily Radiance Vitamin C
This dual-action moisturiser gives hydration and antioxidant protection. Enriched with stabilised Vitamin C and SPF 30, it’s perfect for daytime wear—shielding your skin from environmental stress while boosting radiance.
Medik8 Ultimate Recovery Intense
If your skin is feeling reactive, flaky, or sensitive after treatments (or from the cold), this ultra-soothing cream helps calm inflammation and support barrier repair.
