Forgetting to moisturize.
Dry air can suck the moisture right out of your skin, so it's more important than ever to apply a daily moisturizer.
It stops premature skin aging, prevents wrinkles from settling in, and, with a sunscreen component, also wards away skin cancer.
Forgetting about your lips.
Those hard, crisp winds are also giving your lips a beating. Make sure they're properly moisturized with a lip balm or ChapStick. Exfoliation can also help t0 get rid of some of the dead skin cells to prevent that crusty look as well.
Not washing your face enough.
Just because you're not as sweaty as you are in the summer does not mean you can neglect washing your face.
Wash at least once a day to get rid of excess oil, dead skin cells, and dirt from your face. But don't overdo it — more than twice is probably too much.
