This happens to me every year. Winter comes and the dry air it brings dries out my skin causing all sorts of issues and discomfort. I start having itchy, ashy looking skin and have even experienced some skin peeling because of it.

1. Use a gentle cleanser
This winter I'm using the Yes To Cucumbers Soothing Gentle Milk Cleanser and the Noxzema Classic Clean Original Deep Cleansing Cream on my face because of how gently they clean my skin.
On my body, I'm using a store generic bar soap that is equivalent to Dove soap.
2. Stop using hot water
Use lukewarm water instead of hot water and/or wash your face outside of the shower.3. Use more hydrating lotions
Switch over to thicker lotions for your body. The thicker lotion I'm using this Winter is the Suave Silkening Kotion that is infused with a pure jojoba oil extract.
For my face, I'm using the Neutrogena Hydroboost City Shield Water Gel because it has SPF but also moisturizes my face without making it feel greasy.
4. Apply lotions to damp skin
To help seal in the moisture from the water.
5. Use hydrating facial sprays
6. Drink more liquids
Some of my favorites are hot tea, flavored water, or water infused with fruit.7. Keep the air moisturized
Buy a humidifier and use it in the rooms you spend the most time.8. Use moisturizing face masks
9. Take omega supplements
Omegas help to maintain healthy cell membranes allowing those cells to hold water and make the skin feel more hydrated.10. Be extra gentle
