Winter skincare routine for sensitive skin in Jaipur

Desert climate: very hot, dry summers, low humidity and cool winter nights.

Winter in Jaipur: what changes

  • Switch to a cream cleanser and a richer ceramide moisturiser. Add a few drops of squalane at night if you feel tight.
  • Exfoliate less often (once or twice a week). Cold, dry air plus acids equals flaking.
  • Keep using sunscreen daily. Winter sun still causes tanning and pigmentation.

Tips for your skin

  • Low humidity: always seal humectants (hyaluronic acid) with a cream, or they can leave skin tighter.
  • Patch test every new product on your jawline for 2–3 nights before using it on your whole face.
  • Budget tip: Indian D2C brands sell single-active serums for ₹300–₹700 that match premium formulas. Pay for sunscreen first.
