7 Ways to Care for Dry Skin in Winter ...

My skin gets incredibly dry in winter. I’m talking, my face looks like it has dandruff or something if I don’t watch it. It’s horrible. This year, I just don’t want to deal with it. My makeup always looks horrible, my skin hurts, it’s the worst. So I went looking for ways to eliminate the winter skin problem, and here’s what I found!


1. Oil Up

There are certain oils that can keep your skin moist and healthy, but you have to be careful. It’s easy to make your skin itself look oily if you aren’t. Oil of Vitamin E is one of the best bets, but many people are behind almond oil or even olive oil as well. At this point, I’ll try anything

2. The Right Lotion

This is harder than it might seem. Finding the right lotion for your skin can be hard. You don’t want anything too thin or insubstantial, because it won’t provide your skin with the moisture it needs. On the other hand, if your lotion is too thick, it can make your skin look and feel greasy.

3. Butter Up

Specifically, cocoa butter can be extremely helpful. You will also smell delicious. It can be more comprehensive than mere lotion, plus it has a number of other beneficial properties. And really, you will smell delicious.

    My skin definately gets dry in the winter!
    At the end end of fall, my skin was flaky and breaking out and disgusting. And the fact that I was stressing out over it made it ... See more worse.
    But then I walked into Lush in the Mall of America and bought a cleanser/really gentle exfoliator (Angels on Bare Skin), a toner (Eau Roma Water), and a moisturizer (Skin Drink.) My skin improved within a week, and now it’s radiant and theres no dryness or redness whatsoever. Needless to say, I’m now a Lush addict. (:
    They make a lot of really great products for the dry winter time. Definately check out their website.
