Why does skin dry out faster in cold weather?
The skin normally protects itself with a natural barrier of lipids and moisture. At low temperatures, blood vessels constrict, sebum production decreases, and the skin is less able to produce protective oils. At the same time, humidity is significantly lower in winter—both outdoors and in heated indoor spaces.
Dermatological studies show that cold air increases natural transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and slows down the regeneration of the skin barrier. As a result, the skin loses moisture more quickly, becomes brittle, and is more prone to irritation. Shaved areas of skin, bald heads, and the sensitive skin under beards suffer particularly from this.
Here you can find out which of our products are particularly suitable for skin care in winter!
1. Light Winter Care!
BEARD OIL provides essential moisturization. Its combination of natural oils mimics the skin's natural lipids, helping to rebuild the skin barrier and prevent moisture loss. This provides optimal protection for the skin under the beard, but other dry areas of skin also benefit from its nourishing effect.
BEARD OIL is quickly absorbed without leaving a greasy residue and leaves the skin feeling pleasant, especially when spending long periods of time in heated rooms.
Highly effective: organic almond oil, organic jojoba oil
2. Protecting Winter Care!
Whether freshly shaved or not: POST SHAVE BALM locks moisture into the skin and immediately supplies it with regenerating substances from effective plant extracts. At the same time, it supports the development of a more stable skin barrier and prevents redness and tightness.
POST SHAVE BALM is a protective lotion that is non-greasy and quickly absorbed - ideal for sensitive skin areas that are often more exposed to the elements.
Highly effective: organic aloe vera gel, glycerin, organic sunflower oil
3. Intensive Winter Care!
BEARD BALM offers intensive protection against wind, cold, and dehydration! Its rich composition not only cares for your beard, but also strengthens and protects your skin during the cold season!
The ingredients in BEARD BALM bind moisture deep into the skin, nourish the underlying skin layer, and form a protective, moisture-retaining film. This prevents dry, itchy skin and ensures that the beard hair remains supple.
Highly effective: organic shea butter, beeswax, castor oil
