Here are some effects that Toronto’s particular climate may have on your skin.

If you live in Toronto, there’s a good chance that you deal with dry skin for the majority of the year. You know how it feels when your face feels tightened after cleansing, your moisturizer doesn’t keep your face hydrated all day, and by the time you go to bed at night, your skin is even drier than it was in the morning? And if you have an oily skin type, does your T-zone become shinier throughout the day? Toronto’s climate is typically much drier than many other regions, which may be the main factor.

It’s also crucial to remember that Toronto’s water is harder than that of other cities, making it even more crucial to thoroughly hydrate and balance your skin. With our suggested routine guide, continue reading to learn more about it.

Why and how?

Dry air is particularly harmful because it dehydrates your skin. This results in increased redness, small cracks, and visible signs of dryness (especially on your hands and face). Dry air increases the risk of contracting all “contact” infections, local skin inflammation, minor wounds, and early skin aging when exposed repeatedly.

Simple ways to avoid dryness and regain balance:

You’ll feel much more balanced and comfortable with your skin if you adhere to these straightforward guidelines!

• Increase your water consumption

For your overall skin, hair, nails, and health, this is one of the most obvious and important pieces of advice—but it’s fairly typical to forget about it occasionally! Start by keeping track of your drinking patterns for a few days. You’ll likely become aware that you are not drinking enough water. Make it a habit to carry a reusable water bottle with you wherever you go. You should be consuming at least 2-3 liters of water each day to improve both your overall health and the glowiness of your skin.

• Get a humidifier

A tool that supports sustaining the ideal humidity level for the health of our skin? Sweet! If you have a tendency to lose moisture from your skin, the mucous membranes will also dry out, causing “clogging” in the eyes, excessive dryness in the mouth, and cracked lips. Adding a humidifier will solve the problem quickly.

• Apply a nourishing facial oil.

You can believe us when we say that facial oils don’t have to be gummy or messy. Natural face oils, like our I.Myss Aqua Marine Cleansing Oil, don’t leave a greasy film on your face; instead, they are easily absorbed and don’t leave any residue. Apply a few drops as a finishing touch before makeup to keep your skin moisturized all day, or use it before bed for a restful night’s sleep. Look for what suits you the best!

• Add facial masks to your skincare regimen.

The secret is to use deeply nourishing hydrating masks like La Verne Lumiere Hydrating Sheet Mask 2-3 times per week to enhance the glow of the skin! It’s not a quick fix — these natural ingredients are doing wonders for your skin’s health. Put on your favorite routine music, give your skin some much-needed nutrition, and take a moment to unwind.

• Make wise cleaner selections

Let’s face it, the majority of cleansers contain ingredients that aren’t ideal for dry skin. In fact, a lot of ingredients actually make your skin even drier by removing its natural oils. Dehydrated skin is also much more prone to breakouts. Always go with a cleanser that emphasizes natural ingredients, like our wildly popular all-natural Shiseido Senka Acne Care Cleanser which is Perfect for the dry Toronto climate, this water-based cleanser contains premium ingredients that work to balance and hydrate your skin.
