Happy My Best Winter Skin Day! While skincare is important every day, the colder, drier air in winter can be particularly harsh on skin. Here are a few quick tips for having your best winter skin:

1. Use a thicker (and good quality) moisturizer to keep skin hydrated.
2. Use a humidifier at home to keep skin from drying out.
3. Don't forget the sunscreen! There might be less sun, but it's still there. Sunscreen is still important when you're out during daylight hours.
