Greece, with its Mediterranean climate and sunny days even during winter, pushes us to the need for protection from solar radiation and proper skin care all year round. So how do we protect ourselves from the sun in winter for a healthy skin?
Sunscreen: The Indispensable Ally
Regardless of the season, sunscreen is essential. Choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 and apply it daily, even on cloudy days.
Hats and sunglasses
Protecting your face from direct sunlight can be enhanced by wearing a hat and sunglasses. These will protect your skin as well as your eyes from UV radiation.
Hydration is key
Winter can cause skin dehydration due to cold temperatures and indoor heating. Use moisturizers rich in ingredients like hyaluronic acid.

Proper care of your skin requires attention throughout. By using sunscreen, moisturizers, and choosing products carefully, you can keep your skin healthy and glowing.
