Skin healthy winter with VLCC

Dubai, January 14, 2015: This winter, VLCC, a leading wellness and personal care brand in the Middle East and South Asia, is offering an exciting new range of lip balms and an all-purpose moisturizing cream. With winter reaching its peak, the right moisturizing products help fight away chapped lips and dry skin.

The VLCC lip shield range offers an array of fragrant lip balms with flavors like cocoa butter, mandarin and strawberry. Powered wth exotic herbal ingredients and SPF 10, the range not only protects against UV rays but also heals chapped lips. 

Soft and nourishing, VLCC’s all-purpose moisturizing cream will leave you smelling like a dream. Made from two of nature’s best moisturizing ingredients, red bearberry and passion fruit, it is a light, quick absorbing and non-greasy cream. Being rich in vitamin A and antioxidants, passion fruit removes skin damaging free radicals and stimulates cell renewal while red bearberry lightens skin texture by reducing pigmentation and blemishes. The supple cream works brilliantly on your skin and leaves it nourished, smooth and healthy.  

Commenting on the precautions to avoid skin damage and drying during winter, Ms. Hanadi Salam – Beauty Category Head, UAE at VLCC says: “It is very important to hydrate. Drinking water and keeping yourself hydrated is not only for the summer. Water is extremely important to help your skin cope with winter dryness too. While moisturizing is a must, one should make an effort in finding out what kind of moisturizers suit their skin. Hands being exposed to the harsh climates tend to suffer the most, always carry a moisturizer along with you and plop it on your hands massaging gently from time to time.” 

“It is extremely important to use lip balms and chap-sticks during this season to avoid dry flaky skin which also causes extreme discomfort and burning. Although the sun is not too harsh during winters, never leave home without a sunscreen. At VLCC we try to keep maximum natural ingredients in our products. They are not only skin friendly but also a healthy way to stay beautiful”.

VLCC’s products range from sunscreens, moisturizers, nourishing creams to lip balms and under-eye creams. The brand is a comprehensive provider of beauty products for every season.

As a leading player in the wellness domain, VLCC is present through its VLCC slimming, beauty and fitness centres, the VLCC Institutes of Beauty & Nutrition and the VLCC Personal Care line of skin-care, body-care and hair-care products.
