Overview
- Use mild, fragrance‑free cleansers and keep showers to 5–10 minutes with lukewarm water, then pat skin dry.
- Apply a hydrating serum on damp skin and seal with a thick emollient within about three minutes, favoring petrolatum, shea butter or squalane.
- Maintain indoor moisture with a humidifier, targeting roughly 40–60% humidity to curb seasonal dryness.
- Wear broad‑spectrum SPF 30+ every day, with mineral formulas suggested to minimize irritation in winter.
- Exfoliate sparingly and support skin with water and omega‑3‑rich foods; consider avoiding strong retinoids this season and seek medical advice if dryness or inflamed patches persist.
