This winter, make hydration the hero of your skincare routine

When it comes to glowing and healthy skin, hydration is foremost. No matter your skin type or routine, moisture is what keeps one's complexion resilient, and radiant. This is true on hot summer days, humid monsoon months and especially during the dry winter season. With transitioning seasons and pollution stripping away the skin’s natural barrier, maintaining its hydration levels isn’t always easy. The good news? A few well-chosen products followed through a consistent ritual can transform the way one's skin looks and feels.

One of the most effective ways to reset and replenish your skin is through multi-functional products that do more than just moisturise. French pharmacy favourite Embryolisse has long been a backstage secret among makeup artists, models, and dermatologists for its simple yet powerful approach to hydration. This winter, it should make its way to your vanity table too.

Now it introduces Filaderme; a deeply nourishing emulsion, to take skin nourishment to the next level. Formulated with 99% natural-origin ingredients; including shea butter, aloe vera, and beeswax, Filaderme is designed to restore dry and sensitive skin by replenishing lipids and reinforcing the skin barrier. Its velvety texture and delicate almond scent makes it as indulgent to use as it is effective, helping you say goodbye to dryness and flakiness through the season.

For those who prefer a lighter touch that multitasks, the brand’s cult favourite Lait-Crème Concentré — often called the 24-Hour Miracle Cream — continues to be a beauty essential. This creamy lotion triples as a moisturiser, primer, and makeup remover, giving the skin a supple finish. It is loved by makeup artists for the way it preps the skin for base makeup while keeping it hydrated all day.

To complete the routine, the Eau de Beauté Rosamelis Face Toner brings a refreshing lift. Blending rose, orange blossom, witch hazel, and cornflower, it can be used as a toner, a mist, or even to set makeup. Its alcohol-free formula softens, and revives dull skin, leaving a delicate rosy freshness behind.

From intense nourishment to lightweight freshness, these essentials make hydration effortless. Whether your skin needs repair, prep, or protection, embracing moisture-rich skincare isn’t just about the glow; it’s about keeping your skin resilient, balanced, and happy during the chilly months.
