Try these tips to help keep your skin beautiful and soft all winter long.
Use hand cream rather than lotion because it is thicker and will better absorb into your skin.
Moisturize hands and feet within a few minutes of getting out of the shower. Creams are designed to hold in moisture that’s already on your skin, so they work best when skin is still moist.
Use gloves when cleaning so your hands are not exposed to drying detergents and cleaning products.
If you can, avoid warming up with a fireplace or electric heater; these can dry out the air, making dry skin worse. Use a humidifier to combat dry air in your house.
