Why should you adapt your skincare routine to seasonal changes

Posted by Les Soins Orā on October 30, 2024

When temperatures drop and the air becomes drier, our skin starts to feel the impact. While summer’s natural humidity helps keep skin hydrated, this support wanes as colder weather sets in. Indoor heating and brisk winds can further dry out the skin, leaving it feeling tighter and more vulnerable to redness and irritation.

In these colder months, the skin’s natural protective barrier weakens noticeably. This is the perfect time to transition to richer, more nourishing products to keep your skin feeling soft and resilient. Caring for your skin this season isn’t just about skincare—it’s about maintaining daily comfort.

Why Monoï Oil?

Monoï oil is more than a skincare staple—it’s a revered beauty elixir, infused with the essence of Polynesian tradition. Created by delicately macerating Tiaré flowers in coconut oil, this oil undergoes a meticulous process to capture all its enriching benefits.

Packed with essential fatty acids, Monoï provides deep hydration, nourishing the skin without a greasy finish. Unlike heavier oils, this ‘dry’ oil absorbs effortlessly, sealing in moisture—a perfect remedy for dry, cold weather that can sap the skin of its natural hydration. Monoï forms a protective barrier, keeping skin soft and supple, while warding off the tightness and discomfort colder temperatures often bring.

But Monoï’s magic doesn’t stop at hydration. It’s rich in antioxidants, thanks to coconut oil’s polyphenols, which shield the skin and help slow visible signs of aging. These antioxidants also deliver antibacterial and soothing properties, ideal for sensitive skin prone to irritation and inflammation during seasonal changes. With its reparative qualities, Monoï not only protects but helps the skin regenerate, while the tiaré extract further enhances this by calming redness and alleviating itchiness caused by cold and wind.

How to Adapt Your Routine?

Incorporating Monoï into your winter routine is choosing to protect, hydrate, and soothe your skin—all while creating a moment of self-care. Here’s how to seamlessly introduce this nourishing oil into your daily rituals.

01. After Showering

Apply Monoï oil immediately after your shower, while your skin is still damp, to lock in hydration. This simple step creates a protective barrier, keeping your skin soft and supple against the drying effects of hot water. The result? Silky, deeply moisturized skin that’s prepared to face the cold. Our 250 ml bottle is perfect for generous, all-over application.

02. On the go

For an added layer of protection against harsh winds and cold, apply a thin layer of Monoï to exposed areas like your hands and neck. This natural shield helps prevent redness and tightness while providing a comforting floral scent to lift your spirits on gray winter days. Our 50 ml travel size easily fits in your bag for touch-ups on the go.

03. Post-Exertion

After a long day or physical exertion, indulge in a bath with our Orā magnesium salt, enriched with Monoï for deep hydration, magnesium to relax muscles, and green clay for detoxification. This unique blend soothes tired muscles, releases stress, and nourishes the skin. A truly relaxing experience, like a spa day at home.

04. Before Washing you Hair

Monoï also provides an excellent treatment for hair, particularly when exposed to the drying effects of winter. For intense hydration, use as a hair mask: apply generously along the lengths, wrap in a warm towel, leave on, then rinse. The result? Softer, shinier hair that’s better protected from the cold.

05. Before Sleeping

Cold weather demands deeper skin regeneration. Add Monoï to your nighttime routine to fully benefit from its reparative properties. Before bed, mix a few drops with your moisturizer and apply to your face and neck, letting the oil work overnight to repair and soothe your skin. By morning, wake up to soft, calm, and perfectly hydrated skin.

While often linked to summer, Monoï is actually a versatile companion perfect for every season. In the colder months, it unveils its full potential, providing deep hydration, lasting protection, and unmatched comfort. By incorporating Monoï into your routine, you’re embracing complete care that turns each application into a moment of true well-being.
