Eye care for winter: how to take care of your eyelashes and eyebrows?
In winter, our eyelashes and eyebrows can fall out more easily. That's why taking care of them regularly is essential.
Cold temperatures and harsh winter conditions can be tough on your skin and can have a detrimental effect on your lashes and brows. Luckily, by adopting moisturizing and protective routines, you can stimulate hair growth so that it stays thick and supple.
Why the arrival of winter can be tricky for your eyelashes and eyebrows?
The drop in temperatures, the wind and the climatic hazards of winter make your skin more fragile. The cuticles of your eyebrows and eyelashes can become irritated more easily, which can cause more hair loss and give you the impression of having sparser eyebrows and eyelashes. Fortunately, with regular care, you can maintain a sublime look with longer eyelashes and fuller eyebrows.
What care should you use to take care of your eyelashes and eyebrows in winter?
A multitude of treatments can be carried out to take care of your eyelashes and eyebrows.
The scrub
For healthy eyelashes and eyebrows, you must first purify your skin. To do this, exfoliate once a week, or even once every two weeks for the most sensitive skin. This will allow you to remove all dead skin and impurities embedded in your epidermis.
Perfect your hydration
Also, to take care of your skin, don't skip hydration. Apply a moisturizer that is suited to your skin type every day. Don't forget to apply it to your eyebrows too. This will nourish your skin and soothe any itching or irritation caused by the cold.
Nourishing and repairing serums
To stimulate and boost the growth of your hair, regularly apply serum to the hairs of your eyelashes or eyebrows. These serums, often rich in proteins, strengthen and activate their growth for supple eyelashes and eyebrows that are more resistant to winter conditions.
The vitamin cure
To give your eyelashes and eyebrows a boost, don't hesitate to stock up on vitamins. Eat a balanced diet and don't skimp on proteins and foods containing vitamins B and E.
Sun protection
Finally, for total protection, if you are going to be exposed to the sun for a long time, don't forget to put a little sunscreen directly on your eyebrows. This will protect them from UV rays and limit the reactions of your skin.

To preserve your eyebrows and eyelashes as much as possible, the ideal is to carry out a restorative beauty routine every evening.
How to remove makeup properly
Before going to bed, take the time to remove your makeup thoroughly. Use a cleansing milk or micellar water. This will allow you to properly remove the makeup and impurities that have settled on your eyelashes and eyebrows. They will then be better prepared to receive the treatment, which will make it more effective.
Apply a restorative and revitalizing treatment
There are many specific treatments for eyebrows and eyelashes. They are generally applied with a small brush like mascara. These treatments, often based on castor oil, will activate the growth of your hairs and strengthen their strength. This will allow them to have a longer life and to maintain a more harmonious and pronounced curve for the eyelashes.

What do you think about more sustainable techniques?
