Must-haves for skiers: Why proper skin protection is essential on the slopes

Skiing means fresh mountain air, sunshine and exercise – but also extreme conditions for the skin.
Cold temperatures, wind and intense UV radiation put a lot of strain on the skin, especially on the face and lips. Anyone who spends time on the slopes knows how quickly unprotected skin can become dry, tight or irritated.

That’s why a reliable protective cream is a true must-have for skiers.

Why skiing is particularly demanding on the skin

While skiing, several stress factors affect the skin at the same time:

• Cold and wind dry out the skin

• Higher altitude increases UV radiation

• Reflection from snow intensifies sun exposure

• Frequent temperature changes between slopes, lifts and huts strain the skin barrier

The facial area – especially nose, cheeks and lips – needs targeted protection.

What a good skin protection cream for skiers should offer

Not every cream is suitable for winter sports. An ideal ski cream should:

• protect the skin from cold and wind

• create a protective barrier without feeling heavy

• nourish and care for the skin

• remain easy to apply even at low temperatures

This is exactly where BANO’s Latschenkiefer Cream stands out.
