Burr! Burr! It is too cold this winter to let your skin go unnoticed. All the dryness needs to be taken care of and I have just the solution. Actually, I have a list of solutions to avoid dry skin. Usually, during winters, our lips crack, the skin of the heels start peeling, our hands and legs get white patches. Of course, you already know that cold creams help. But, for those who think those creams are far too expensive or are faithful followers of home remedies only, I have those too.
Hot showers will dry your skin all the more. When you wash your hands and face only, use lukewarm water to avoid losing oils of the skin.

You have to moisturize your hands and feet after washing them. Applying moisture helps seal the dampness in.
Make sure you got creams which are not petroleum based but oil-based. Made of natural ingredients like jojoba.
Honey is considered one of the best natural moisturizers. Before taking a shower rub honey all over your body and leave for ten minutes.

The fatty acids in coconut oil will help moisturize the skin. Apply generously before going to bed and wash it off the next morning. This will help make your skin soft and smooth.
Use hydrating foundation and avoid mousse foundation or powder.
Use Vaseline on your lips, feet, and hands to keep the skin soft.

I mean, drink water. Keep your body hydrated.
Avoid exposing your skin to the harsh cold outside. Keep your body warm and covered.
Drink lots of water, fruit juices and also eat fruits.
Yes, you get products containing aloe vera but it would be better to use the gel extracted from the leaf directly. Apply it on your face for about 30 minutes. This is not only a moisturizer but it also protects your skin from impurities.
