In winter, your skin doesn't just need moisturizer: it also needs clothing that really protects it.
Cold, wind and sudden changes in temperature can irritate it, dry it out and worsen problems such as eczema or dermatitis.
But there is a silent and effective solution that goes beyond cosmetics: technical garments. How do they really help take care of your skin in the cold months? Stick around to the end, because this may change the way you dress in winter.
Effects of cold on the skin
Dryness and dehydration
Cold air contains little moisture, and we also use heating which dries out the environment even more.
This causes the skin to lose water quickly, become tight, flaky and, in extreme cases, even crack.
Lesions and redness
The most exposed areas such as the face, neck and hands suffer from redness, itching and irritation. Rubbing against unsuitable fabrics can worsen the situation. A poorly chosen garment can trigger a skin reaction without you even realizing it.
Benefits of functional garments
Hypoallergenic materials and protection
Quality technical garments are designed with fabrics such as hypoallergenic cotton or treated synthetic fibers that do not irritate the skin. In the case of Sutran, for example, its undershirts incorporate anti-odor technology and anti-sweat, which helps keep the skin clean and fresh throughout the day.
Moisture and temperature regulation
This type of clothing acts like a second skin: it prevents the accumulation of sweat, allows perspiration and maintains a stable body temperature. This reduces the risk of sudden temperature changes, which can affect circulation and aggravate skin problems.
Basic complementary care routines
Adequate hydration
It is not enough to moisturize on the outside. Drink water regularly and apply an emollient cream after showering to seal moisture into the skin. It's a basic step, but a very effective one.
Recommended products
Use soap-free gels, avoid harsh exfoliants and choose creams with ingredients such as urea, hyaluronic acid or ceramides. Deep hydration is key, but without altering the skin's natural pH.
Tips for choosing clothing compatible with sensitive skin
Dermatologists' recommendations
Experts insist on avoiding cheap synthetic fabrics, thick seams or internal labels that irritate. Opt for soft garments, without aggressive dyes and with flat seams, especially if your skin is sensitive.

Sutran's breathable undershirts are a prime example of how clothing can effortlessly take care of your skin. Thanks to their certified manufacturing, sweat control technology and soft fabrics, they are ideal for sensitive skin that needs thermal comfort without compromising on style.
