Also available as balms and creams, these products are designed to leave skin feeling instantly warm. Whether you’re braving chilly evenings or need a discreet way to stay warm at a formal event, warming lotions can help.
By applying a small amount to your skin, you can enjoy the much-needed warmth that comforts you in cold weather.
These warming lotions may look like regular creams until you apply them. These give a feeling of warmth and that particular part of the body starts getting hot. These are particularly beneficial for parts of the body sensitive to cold, such as the hands and feet, where warmth is most needed.
Are you also wondering how these creams create a warming effect on your skin? Well, menthol and capsaicin are mostly the main ingredients in this case.
Warming creams contain special ingredients like pepper extract, menthol or certain essential oils that provide a warming sensation on the skin. These ingredients improve blood circulation in the applied area, leading to a warm sensation on the skin,” says Dr Ruby Sachdev, Consultant Aesthetic Physician at Gleneagles Hospital, Bangalore.
