March is here but Belgian winter isn't done yet. Your skin feels it — tight, dry, maybe a little rough around the nose. The heating is still blasting, your showers are too hot, and the cold wind outside does the rest. Your skin barrier needs backup.
The French Pharmacy Blog shared a comprehensive guide to winter skincare essentials. We looked into which products you can compare at Belgian online pharmacies — and where the price differences are.
Why your skin needs extra care in winter
Cold air holds less moisture, central heating dries indoor air, and hot showers strip natural oils. The result: increased transepidermal water loss (TEWL).
Gentle cleansing
Bioderma Atoderm Shower Oil (€17.14/L) cleanses without stripping. Perfect for dry, sensitive skin.
Intensive hydration
Uriage Thermal Water
From €7.54 to €17.45 — a staggering price gap. This mineral spray calms and hydrates.
Eucerin AtopiControl Balm
From €22.29, this balm restores the skin barrier with ceramides and omega fatty acids.
Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse Or
The iconic dry oil (€34.85) for face, body and hair. A few drops mixed into your day cream transform your winter routine.
