Due to extreme weather, pollution, and UV radiation exposure, the skin faces immense challenges in harsh climates worldwide.
As skincare expert Dr. Natalia Derkach explains, a properly formulated hydrophilic oil from INSTYTUTUM, protects the skin against these environmental threats.
The Skin Threats Posed by Harsh Climates
Many regions around the world have aggressive climates that have a serious impact on skin health:
- Dehydration – temperature and humidity changes disrupt the skin’s water balance, reducing its natural hydration. The skin dries out, affecting the protective lipid barrier.
- Premature aging – UV rays and pollution generate free radicals that break down collagen and elastin over time. This damage causes sagging, wrinkles, and a dull tone.
- Irritation and sensitivity – heat, wind, cold, and irritants trigger inflammation, redness, and sensitivity reactions as the skin’s immunity falters.
- Nutrient deficiency – harsh conditions impact the skin’s reserves of lipids, ceramides, and other nutrients that maintain a youthful glow and health.
These threats leave the skin exposed to the harmful effects of the environment. Enhancing moisturization, barrier function and nutritional balance from the inside helps prevent external attacks.
The Protective Properties of Hydrophilic Oils
Specially engineered hydrophilic oils reinforce skin against harsh climate threats. These oils:
- Boost hydration and reinforce the lipid barrier.
- Neutralize free radicals with antioxidant complexes to prevent UV rays and pollution damage.
- Soothes irritation and inflammation while boosting the immune function.
- Contains essential fatty acids, ceramides, and nutrients that nourish the skin to heal damage and maintain skin elasticity.
By fortifying the skin’s natural defenses, hydrophilic oils allow the skin to stay healthy despite environmental assault.
A Holistic Regimen with Hydrophilic Oils
Alongside hydrophilic oils, Dr. Derkach advises:
- Vigilant sun protection – apply broad-spectrum Sunscription Dark Spot Defence SPF50 every day, reapplying every 2 hours. Seek shade during peak UV times. Wear wide-brimmed hats and tightly woven fabrics.
- Double cleansing – use an oil-based X-Strength Retinol Serum at night to dissolve pollution particles, followed by a gentle water-based cleanser.
- Hydrating toners – frequently moisturize skin with hydrating and antioxidant-rich toners like Flawless Hydra Mist to restore moisture, calm irritation, and protect against pollutants.
- Soothing masks — 1–7 times per week, apply a nourishing mask with colloidal oatmeal, aloe, and ceramides to hydrate and repair the skin’s barrier.
- Anti-inflammatory creams – creams with colloidal sulfur, willow bark extract, and phospholipids reduce inflammation.
- Consistency – maintain your regimen daily to fortify your skin from harmful climate impacts.
Using these products and practices on top of the hydrophilic oil gives skin its best chance of staying healthy and youthful despite harsh climates.
Conclusion
Harsh climates pose multiple threats: UV exposure, weather extremes, pollution, and irritants. Hydrophilic oils reinforce the skin to handle these challenges.
Alongside sun protection, gentle cleansing, masks, anti-inflammatory creams, and consistency, hydrophilic oils keep the skin healthy and renewed.
You need to remember the most essential things to keep your skin healthy. Use additional products to maximize the benefits of hydrophilic oil.
Protect your skin in advance, and its beauty will glow even in the harshest conditions.
