Red nose - With all the dry air you’re exposed to during the winter months, you may find yourself blowing your nose more often. As a result, your nose might experience some unsightly redness. The cure? A little hydrating cream should do the trick, especially if your skin is cracking.
Rough hands - When the weather is cold, the skin on your hands doesn’t have as many oil glands, which means your body finds it more difficult to defend against cold, dry air. Before heading outside or into bed, apply a glycerin-based hand cream and slip on some gloves to hold in the moisture - after some time, your hands will feel soft and hydrated once again.
Scaly legs - Like your hands, your legs also don’t have as many oil glands during the winter. What that means is your legs get rough more quickly. The trick? Take a hot shower and let the warm water hydrate your skin. Once you hop out of the shower, apply multiple layers of your favorite healing lotion.
Itchy skin - If you already suffer from eczema, chances are your condition can exacerbate. But even if you don’t deal with dry skin conditions regularly, you can bet that the heat in your home and the dry air outside will steal your natural oils and leave you with flaky, itching skin. Petrolium jelly is an effective remedy that can treat dry skin with just a few ingredients.
