3 Essential Steps to Caring for Your Skin in Cooler Weather

Cooler temperatures are rolling in and holiday lights are going up, but the battle for healthy skin is just beginning.

When the weather gets colder, humidity levels drop, and as a result, our skin loses moisture and can begin to chap, flake, crack and appear blotchy and red. Moving between the rough winter winds outside and high indoor heating will do our skin no favors. Take matters into your own hands this winter season to keep your skin fresh and healthy. 1. SPF Every Day The biggest favor you can ever do for your skin is to wear
