LET IT GLOW

Winter doesn't have to wear on your skin. Cracked lips, chapped cheeks and rough feet are just a few signs that dry skin season is here — harsh winter weather can wreak havoc all over. Bitter temps outside are the first front against dry skin, but the battle continues indoors. “A major factor that contributes to dry skin is indoor heating,” says Dr. Elyse Love, a dermatologist in New York City. “It is true that the humidity outside is generally lower in the winter than it is in the summer, but the biggest thing is that we spend significantly more time inside, and most heaters blow out dry heat. This dry, warm environment feels cozy but strips your skin of its normal moisture.” Fortunately, the right routine — combined with the ideal products for the season — can keep your skin soft and hydrated from head to toe all the way until spring.
