Swap a stripping wash for something gentler and follow with Buchu and Aloe Body Oil on damp skin. On the face, Night Recovery Cream does the heavy lifting, with Kalahari Melon Eye Cream where things feel papery. Keep sunscreen going too, because grey skies in the Cape are not the same as no sun.

Winter here is wet and windy rather than freezing, and skin still gets tight. Cold air outside, heaters inside and long hot showers all pull moisture out. The first change worth making is water temperature. Warm rather than hot, and a shorter wash, makes a noticeable difference by the end of June.
