Winter is coming, and while it brings cozy sweaters and holiday fun, it also brings dry, flaky skin. As the weather gets colder and the air drier, your skin needs a little extra care to stay soft and hydrated. Switch to a gentler cleanser that won’t strip your skin’s natural oils, and use a richer moisturizer to lock in hydration.To prevent dryness, consider using a humidifier, avoid hot showers, and apply moisturizer right after showering.
