If you don\u2019t exfoliate regularly, now\u2019s a good time to start. Sloughing away dead skin cells prevents the type of buildup that dulls your complexion. A product like La Roche-Posay Ultra-Fine Scrub<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a> is a great choice for skin that\u2019s mildly irritated by weather woes. The scrubbing particles are minuscule, so it works gently without leaving your skin red or uncomfortable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Coconut

Exfoliation has the same benefits for the rest of your skin too. Use a gentle body scrub, like OGX Smoothing Coconut + Coffee Scrub & Wash<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a> to smooth skin and leave it lightly scented. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. A mild cleanser<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"DHC

Now is a great time to swap your usual cleanser for something milder and more hydrating. Avoid products that are enriched with sulfates and harsh detergents, which strip away your skin\u2019s natural oils. Look for products made from gentle moisturizers<\/a>, like oils and glycerin, which give weather-beaten skin the TLC it needs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

DHC Deep Cleansing Oil<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a> is enriched with olive and rosemary leaf oils to nourish and protect, while also removing all traces of makeup and impurities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Moisturize while skin is damp<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Water Rose 24H Moisture Gel, $14.99, Garnier SkinActive<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

You should upgrade your moisturizer when it gets cold, but you don\u2019t have to use a thick cream if your skin is on the oily side. A product like Garnier SkinActive Water Rose 24H Moisture Gel<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a> relies on a lighter formula that still packs a punch to leave skin soft and refreshed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For dry skin <\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"Versed
Versed Skin Soak Rich Moisture Cream, $17.99, Target<\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\"Vaseline
Vaseline Clinical Care Extremely Dry Skin Rescue, $5.89, Target<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

A product like Vaseline Clinical Care Extremely Dry Skin Rescue is a budget-friendly treat that your hyper-dehydrated skin will love. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
