It’s that time of the year again – the air is crisp, and we’re embracing cozy sweaters while savoring hot chocolate from festive mugs.
But as the temperature drops, our skin’s moisture levels also take a dive. Winter’s harshness often brings about common skin concerns: dryness, flakiness and dehydration.
In response, we need to adjust our skincare routine with the changing seasons to protect our skin from biting winds and freezing temperatures. This ensures it remains supple, resilient, and healthy.
At aspireMD, in St. Catharines, Ontario, these are our best skin care products for winter, and they’ve yielded fantastic results for our clients.
Here’s your guide:
1. ZO Skin Health’s Hydrating Crème
This product hydrates and soothes the skin, protecting you from harsh dry weather.
Ideal for | Normal to dry skin.
How to use | Apply to clean, dry skin in the morning and evening/night as needed.
2. Skin Medica HA5
This product provides immediate smoothing in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and supports the skin’s natural ability to retain moisture. This results in rejuvenated skin tone and texture.

How to use | Apply to face, neck and chest, or any area where fine lines and wrinkles primarily exist, twice daily — in the morning and at night —after cleansing, toning, and treating your skin.
3. Retinol

“Because Retinols can be tricky and drying and, in the winter, can be an issue, we suggest you mix one pump ZO Hydrating Creme with your Retinol.”
