Glow All Winter Long: Skincare Secrets You Need

As the temperature drops, your skin faces a double challenge: harsh cold air outside can compromise the moisture barrier, leaving your complexion feeling dry, tight, and more sensitive than usual. Meanwhile, indoor heating only adds to the problem by circulating dry air that saps hydration from your skin. The result? A dull, rough, and dehydrated appearance. But don’t worry—there are simple ways to adjust your skincare routine to help your skin stay hydrated, healthy, and glowing through the colder months.
