For a long time, I thought I had oily skin. But recently I've realized my skin type is actually quite dry. If I don't take good care of it, it can end up very red and sometimes a little scaly. I have psoriasis as well, and while it doesn't affect my face, I often get tiny little splotches on my arms and legs (it was worse when I was a child). Winter can be a difficult season for those of us with dry skin and skin conditions. The low environmental humidity can sap the life out of already dry skin. Even if you don't have dry skin, it's still a time of year you should take extra care of your skin. Here are 10 of my holy grail products for keeping my skin glowing through this dreary season.

In winter, it's important to think about the different aspects of your skincare routine to add extra hydration. If you usually go full-glam, changing up your primer and concealer products for the winter can help combat the effects of the drier atmosphere. If you're a skincare queen, think about switching up your cleansers and toners. You can even make such a minimal change as using a more hydrating soap in the shower. If you have dry and sensitive skin like me, it's always important to care for your skin, but especially so in the winter.
