Winter Skincare: Combatting the Harsh North Dakota Climate with Expert Tips and Treatments
Winter Skincare: Combatting the Harsh North Dakota Climate with Expert Tips and Treatments
As the winter season settles in across North Dakota and the Midwest, your skin faces a new set of challenges. The cold, dry air coupled with indoor heating can leave your skin parched, dull, and more prone to sensitivity. In Bismarck, where winter temperatures can be especially unforgiving, maintaining healthy, hydrated skin is crucial. At Pure Skin, we understand the unique needs of winter skincare and are here to guide you on how to keep your skin radiant all season long.
How Winter Affects Your Skin
Winter weather can wreak havoc on your skin. The low humidity outdoors and heated indoor air combine to sap moisture from your skin, leading to dryness, flakiness, and irritation. This lack of moisture disrupts your skin's natural barrier, making it harder for your skin to retain hydration and protect itself from environmental stressors. Additionally, cold winds can cause redness and sensitivity, while decreased sun exposure may leave your skin looking dull.
How to Improve Your Skin Health During Winter
The good news? With the right combination of at-home care and professional treatments, you can combat winter’s harsh effects and keep your skin glowing and hydrated.
At-Home Winter Skincare Tips
Investing in the right products and creating a nourishing environment at home are the first steps to improving your skin’s health during the colder months.
1. Hydrate Your Skin with Medical-Grade Skincare
Using high-quality, medical-grade skincare products can make all the difference when it comes to battling winter dryness. At Pure Skin, we recommend:
- Pure Skin Moisture Replenishing Cream: Packed with lipids, ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and antioxidants, this cream works to restore your skin’s moisture barrier, leaving it soft, supple, and well-hydrated.
- Eminence Rosehip Triple C+E Firming Oil: A powerful blend of rosehip, jojoba, and seabuckthorn oils, this luxurious facial oil delivers a boost of hydration while improving skin elasticity. Here’s why we love it:
- Rosehip Oil: Rich in Vitamins C and E, this oil helps improve tone, texture, and moisture while addressing pigmentation issues.
- Seabuckthorn Oil: A superfruit oil loaded with essential fatty acids, it promotes hydration, elasticity, and overall skin health.
- Milk Thistle: This antioxidant-rich ingredient helps maintain skin hydration and combat signs of aging.
2. Use a Humidifier
Combat indoor dryness by using a humidifier in your home, especially in your bedroom and living areas. Humidifiers add moisture to the air, which helps your skin stay hydrated and reduces the likelihood of irritation caused by dryness.
3. Avoid Over-Exfoliating
While exfoliation is important, overdoing it can strip your skin of essential oils and exacerbate dryness. Instead, opt for gentle exfoliation methods and follow up with deeply hydrating products to lock in moisture.

For next-level hydration and rejuvenation, complement your at-home routine with these clinic-based treatments tailored to combat winter skin challenges.
1. DiamondGlow Facial: Hydration and Exfoliation in One
Winter skin can be plagued by buildup from dry, flaky patches, making exfoliation essential. The DiamondGlow Facial is the ultimate solution for dull, dehydrated skin during the colder months.
- How It Works: This innovative facial combines exfoliation, extraction, and infusion. The diamond-tipped wand gently removes dry, dead skin cells while simultaneously infusing the skin with medical-grade serums customized to your unique skincare needs.
- Benefits:
- Removes surface-level dryness for better product absorption.
- Instantly hydrates and refreshes your skin, leaving it soft and radiant.

Perfect for the holidays, this facial is ideal for achieving a glowing, event-ready look in no time.
2. Skin-Tightening Treatments
Winter can often make skin appear dull and sagging. Treatments like SkinTyte by Sciton use non-invasive light therapy to tighten and firm the skin, making it look more youthful and rejuvenated even during the harshest months.
Why Winter is the Best Time for Skincare Treatments
The colder months provide an excellent opportunity to address a variety of skincare concerns. With less sun exposure, your skin is better prepared to heal from treatments like facials, laser resurfacing, and chemical peels. Plus, starting your skincare regimen now ensures that your skin will look its best when spring arrives.
