The past few weeks have been hectic with all the festive fervour. Additionally, we had a lot going on at our end, so it’s been a stressful yet fun time.
As November sets in, winds have become chilly in the morning and evenings even in Mumbai. One would say Mumbai doesn’t have winters yes as it’s not very chilly compared to many places. But that’s winter for us. Trust me one thing that is common across, irrespective, is our skin bears the brunt of all seasonal changes.
Winter is harsh on my skin as it causes it to become extremely dry and dull. This could be the case with many of us, I am sure. This year is different for me though. My skin with Perfectil usage has been much better. It’s been a few months since I started using this product and I am feeling the difference in my skin and hair.
How does winter impact our skin?
- During summers or when the temperatures rise high, the skin produces more oil. When the temperatures touch down it’s the opposite reaction. Drop in temperatures results in dryness of the skin and hair.
- There is less humidity in the hair and more usage of heating stuff which further aggravates the situation.
- Dry winds and temperature variations irritate our skin barrier further resulting in dry, flaky, and itchy skin.
- To maintain our body temperatures, we layer on clothes and consume less water which results in skin dehydration. The layers of clothes increase the friction with our skin affecting the acid mantle or hydrolipid barrier. This layer is made of naturally occurring oils and lipids which protect our skin. Any damage to this barrier makes our skin more susceptible to external stressors.
- Usage of hot water on our skin can’t be completely avoided in very chilly places, this again has an impact on the skin. Our skin loses moisture and dehydration increases dryness.
Every season calls for special care for our skin however, the winter season does require extra effort on many fronts.
Some tips and tricks to follow in winter:
- It’s time to use mild and gentle products on the skin. Strong chemical-laden products can aggravate dryness.
- Use organic skincare products or products with mild surfactants which will not damage your acid mantle.
- Even for your hair use mild products that help maintain your natural oils. There are chances of winter dandruff which can be frustrating as it becomes very itchy on occasion so the use of products should be well thought of.
- Moisturise, moisturise, and moisturise only that can get your skin through tough weather conditions. Use products that will keep your skin hydrated. Do it more often throughout the day.
- You could use a humidifier to counteract the air dryness caused by heating equipment. This will make the environment more bearable.
- Take lukewarm showers instead of hot ones.
- Apply sunscreen. Winter is no excuse for not applying it. Sun damage is equally possible in winter.
- Lip and nail care are one of our most avoided areas by us. We need to keep them hydrated as well by frequent moisturisation.
- As much as your body needs good products on the outside, what goes in matters too!
My skin with Perfectil usage has been quite different, unlike previous winters in a positive way.
My experience on my skin with Perfectil –
Personally, my skin becomes so dry that I used to get cuts on my fingers and wrist in winter. Yes, that’s how harsh winters are for my skin even in Mumbai. I emptied bottles of moisturisers. My skin demanded a lot of attention. My lips turn extremely dry with cuts if I miss out on my lip balms even for a day.
Itchy dry skin was a big concern for me. If I miss out on my body lotions, you could see white dry patches on my legs.
I started using Perfectil and my skin with Perfectil has really shown an overall improvement. You may take 3 steps test to find your customized vitamin recommendations.
As the mercury started dropping, I did add my regular winter products to my grocery shopping however, my skin behaves and feels differently unlike previous winters. My skin with Perfectil usage has been nourished from the inside. The dryness is less, and the skin feels more hydrated. My skin elasticity is much better which is reflected in less pain when I stretch my skin. Every morning when I wake up my facial skin feels hydrated and soft and not dull.
Overall, there is less skin roughness, I feel less itchy, and there are no cuts on my fingers and wrist which is a big relief!
I intend to continue the usage of this product as it has really helped me. This is a triple-active beauty multivitamin. I was going through the product details and found out about their clinical trial that states Perfectil helps to:
· Maintain skin relief
· Maintain skin elasticity
· Prevent skin roughness
These results indicate that the skin is prone to seasonal changes during winter. The data also indicates that Perfectil is a safe treatment with no side effects & prevents or even eliminates the negative effects of winter on the skin. This French Clinical Trial proves that even in the Alpine severe winter; the skin does not age with Perfectil.
This is exactly how I feel from the inside out about my skin with Perfectil. Have you tried this beauty vitamin yet?

Although winter is my fav season, I really wish it didn’t come with all the dryness cuz like you Mahek, my skin gets very very very dry… my hands, lips, face, back, legs, feet everything. However, I’m not too sure of consuming vitamins but since you are vouching for it n if it can help extreme dryness… there’s nothing like it… I feel like giving it a try.
Dryness is my biggest concern too. Vitamin supplements have helped me, you can consider speaking to your doctor for advice if you have doubts about Perfectil there is a lot of scientific backup for this product.
With age my skin has become a bit dry. I use a concoction of glycerin and rose water and it works wonderfully. I have been using it since I was a child.
