Dry skin in the winter

Every winter my skin dries up and gets unbearably itchy (I think it’s from the heat drying out our house). Do you have any suggestions for what I can do?

Dear Jess,

Winter is a rough time for our skin. If your house is that dry you may want to get a humidifier. Drinking lots of water is good for you and helps replenish lost fluids. Another important process is to use a moisturizer 1-2 times daily. If these things do not help and/or your skin becomes red and irritated you should see a dermatologist.
