• Factor in individual skin type and geographical location when adapting your skincare 
  regimen for winter.

• Take short, lukewarm showers in the winter instead of hot baths. Soaking in water, 
  especially hot water, dries out your skin.

• When you step out of the shower, pat down with a towel to dry off. Apply a moisturizer 
  immediately after patting down, this will trap moisture within your skin before it escapes.

• Humidify your home. This can keep your skin from drying out and becoming cracked 
  and itchy.

• Use sunscreen with a SPF of 15 or higher if you are going to be outside for any 
  length of time.
