Natural Living Spa Winter Treatment
When the seasons change, does your skin react differently
The colder winter months often leave your skin feeling drier and flaky
The good thing is, you can avoid it. Here’s how.
The dry and cold weather in the wintery months may cause dryness to the skin, leaving it to look crumbly and irritated. Your skin loses moisture when the temperature drops, or when the humidity in the air is low. Therefore, you may also find your hands, feet, and other uncovered areas, such as your face, are less radiant than usual.
Treat your skin this winter
The symptoms of dry skin
Symptoms may vary in the harshness and seem different depending on the areas of the affected skin. It’s also important to note that not all skin types react to the harsh winter weather the same. Following are a few of the most common symptoms of dry skin:
- Itchiness
- Flakiness
- Redness
- Skin cracks found on the heels of your feet
- Irritated skin
- Rough surface
- Stinging or burning sensation
You can take certain actions to help keep your skin looking and feeling healthy and radiant during the dry and cold months. We suggest booking the following treatments offered by Natural Living Spa, which will help you get your skin back to normal.

Facial treatments:
Are you experiencing that winter itch, flaky or scaly skin on your face? The low humidity, dry air, cold temperatures, and not forgetting those nasty winds draw out the skin's moisture, leaving it dehydrated and sensitive. Facial skin can overproduce natural oils when it becomes too dry.
Those oils then sit on the skin's surface, mix with grime and dirt, and cause those terrible and annoying blemishes. Additionally, your skin doesn't get as many nutrients during winter because the cold temperatures make the blood vessels contract to preserve heat, limiting the oxygen to reach the skin.
Therefore, a circulation boost is beneficial from treatments as it boosts blood circulation, which increases warmth and oxygen flow, leaving the skin feeling soft and radiant.
!QMS collagen recovery facial treatment (90min)
This facial treatment provides an effective boost in healing dry and irritable skin. By improving the moisture levels, your skin will look healthier, refreshed, and radiant.
!QMS sensitive skin repair facial (60min)
For sensitive or problematic skin, this treatment is best suited for you to help relieve the inflammation and clear any impurities. This facial will help improve smoothness and relieve the signs of dry wintery skin, leaving you with skin feeling healthier and softer.
!QMS SK alpha revital facial treatment (60min)
A result of having this facial treatment will help moisturise and stimulate dry and damaged skin by stimulating blood flow in the smallest blood vessels, also known as micro-circulation. You will be left with skin feeling healthier and gaining a more glowing skin complexion.
Hands & feet treatments:
It is important to take good care of your skin during chilly weather, particularly your hands and feet. While getting cosy in bed is a great way to escape the chilly weather, it is also important to keep your skin healthy. Unattended feet and hands will start to dry out and become itchy when they are not nourished or treated.
Within no time, you will feel as if your skin is flaky or scaly, and you might even experience cracks. Winter is when your hands and feet need extra care and nourishment. The following treatments will help keep them healthy:

Unfortunately, dry skin is very common during the winter seasons. Moisture is important for the skin barrier to function well and look healthy and soft. Due to research, it is known that moisture decreases in the skin during winter because of the cold temperatures and dry air. By booking yourself a spa day at Natural Living Spa, we can help you avoid this from happening and have your skin feel nourished, moisturised and glowing throughout the winter season.
Skin care is important as it helps your skin stay in great condition. Your skin can look more rejuvenated and soft than before but with the proper care and maintenance. When you get older, the skin can become dull with many imperfections such as blemishes if it is not taken care of properly. This is why taking care of your skin is so important as to protect your skin from discomfort or damage. Natural Living Spa is the perfect place to be if you need some
