Introduce Richer Moisturizers

As the air becomes drier, it's essential to use a heavier moisturizer to prevent your skin from losing moisture to the environment. Look for products that contain nourishing oils and butters that can provide a protective barrier against the cold.

Incorporate Hydrating Serums

Adding a hydrating serum under your moisturizer can give your skin an extra layer of hydration. Look for serums containing ingredients like hyaluronic acid or vitamin E, which can help attract and retain moisture.

Exfoliate Moderately

Reduce the frequency of exfoliation to prevent further dryness and irritation in winter. Switch to a milder exfoliant that promotes cell turnover without stripping the skin of its natural oils.

Protect Against Wind and Cold

Always cover your skin with scarves and gloves when you go outside to protect against the wind and cold, which can rapidly deplete moisture from your skin.

Manage Indoor Heating

Since indoor heating can dry out your skin, consider using a humidifier to add moisture to your home environment, and keep your hydration levels up by drinking plenty of water.
