Yes, but gently. Swap any harsh physical scrubs or strong acids for a gentle lactic acid or PHA (polyhydroxy acid). These provide light exfoliation without compromising your skin's barrier, which is more vulnerable in drier weather.
Dark spots and uneven tone can make skin appear older. Using ingredients like vitamin C, retinoids, and niacinamide helps prevent and treat pigmentation while addressing wrinkles.
Dryness accentuates wrinkles universally. Darker skin may show ashiness when dry, while lighter skin may appear flaky. Rich moisturizers with ceramides benefit all tones.
Always follow the product instructions. Typically, wash-off masks are left on for 10-15 minutes, while sheet masks are used for 15-20 minutes. Overnight masks should be applied as the last step in your routine.
