Dry Skin? Here Are Some Tips!

This cold and snowy weather can be harsh on your skin—have you noticed the effects? ❄️

Here are 8 helpful tips from Kouba Dermatology to help you beat the dry skin season:

1. Moisturize daily – Use a thick, fragrance-free moisturizer, especially after showering, to lock in hydration.

2. Shorten showers – Keep showers lukewarm and under 10 minutes to avoid stripping your skin of natural oils.

3. Use gentle cleansers – Switch to mild, soap-free cleansers that won’t dry out your skin.

4. Apply moisturizer to damp skin – This helps seal in moisture more effectively.

5. Don’t forget SPF – Winter sun can still damage skin, especially with snow reflection.

6. Use a humidifier – Adding moisture back into the air can help prevent skin from drying out indoors.

7. Protect exposed skin – Gloves, scarves, and hats help shield skin from cold winds.

8. Stay hydrated – Drinking plenty of water supports healthy skin from the inside out.
