Oh YEs, You must use a good moisturizer.
The cold and wind can do a real job on your face.

When it gets cold outside the humidity drops because the moisture in the air freezes and falls to the ground. Indoors the heaters take the moisture out the air too. I would invest in a humidifier and just use a good lotion like Eucerin or Lubriderm. I'd also maybe look into getting a water softenor as well. Good luck.

This is very normal. It happens to my so bad. It's just the cold weather. Your skin isn't used to the cold weather and plus since you're not at the pool or anything your skin isn't getting that much moisture.

think about this. when it is hot what do you do sweat right but when it is could do you sweat no you have to drink plenty of liquids to keep warm so to answer your question yes it is normal to have dry skin in cold weather

that's what I've heard. I would try and purchase some lotion if you can find some that helps keep your skin moisturized during harsh weather. If you can't find any or it doesn't help, then maybe a doctor can prescribe a specialized lotion.

yes, its normal. the air typically is drier in winter. I get it too. hasn't been that bad this year, yet. get a good moisturizing lotion that you like & use it consistently. Lots of hot showers will dry your skin, too. Soak in a tub with moisturizer in the water

In cold weather, my skin dries out, and I start to get rashes.
Lotion helps...a lot.

Yes, that's very normal, especially in the winter. Try using some mosturizing lotion, because my friend has dry skin, and she puts on mosturizing lotion after her shower. I hope that your skin is mosturized in the future.

You should use lotion.. That happens to me all the time.. I think might be worse becuz my skin gets so ashy and dry I feel like needles are are pinching my legs...
I actually use Cocoa Butter Lotion it smells really good and it protects your skin...
