Winter Skin Relief Day

The winter months can be especially harsh on your skin, often leaving it dry, irritated, and inflamed. Every year on January 8th we recognize National Winter Skin Relief Day—a perfect reminder to give your skin the care and attention it needs during this challenging season.

How to Care for Your Skin This Winter 

Use a Humidifier

A humidifier adds moisture to the air, helping to keep your skin hydrated.

Get a Facial

A facial relaxes you and allows a professional to analyze your skin to figure out how to keep it as moist as possible.

Stay Hydrated 

Drinking 8-10 glasses of water daily keeps your body and skin hydrated from the inside out.

Take a Bath

A warm bath with added oatmeal can rehydrate and soothe dry, itchy skin while offering a moment of relaxation.

 Use Lotion

Applying lotion is one of the simplest and most effective ways to keep your skin soft and protected during colder months.

Dress in Layers

Wearing layers traps heat close to your body, which prevents your skin from drying out.

Cancer treatment can sometimes make your skin more sensitive to winter’s dryness. Your doctor and care team are excellent resources for personalized skincare advice to keep your skin healthy and comfortable.

Take time this National Winter Skin Relief Day to give your skin the care it deserves—your body will thank you!
