Best facial skin care for dry, winter skin?

Winter is ravaging my skin! My skin has very dry, flaky spots in middle of forehead and around my eyes and eyelids. Right now I use neutrogena gentle cream cleanser daily, and st. ives collagen elastin moisturizer. I use Caudalie essential oil under and around my eyes- it was mad expensive but hasn't made the problem go away, just soothes it a little bit.


I think the st. ives may be better for summer though b/c its not very thick. Anyway, can anyone recommend a not super-greasy day cream and a nice, soothing, moisturizing night cream? I don't have $40 to spend on this stuff, by the way :-pBest facial skin care for dry, winter skin?
Murad products saved my life- i went from having acne so bad that it looked like my cheeks were made of raw ground beef- now i have amazingly clear skin without scars and i actually get compliments on how good my skin looks sometimes- it didnt dry me out or make my face feel like i was burning off- it actually smelled good and fresh and it feels great- like i said a total lifesaver...Murad.comBest facial skin care for dry, winter skin?
Try Jergens Ultra Healing lotion-- I have really dry skin too, and I use it on my face all the time. It doesn't make your skin greasy or oily and the price is great. It's nothing fancy; you can find it at Duane Reade or CVS, but it really works!





Hope I could help in any way!!!
Aveeno works for me. Try C.O. bigelow or bath and body works if that doesn't work.
yes
In the winter our skin needs special care. Along with the care rules comes also the myths. Here are a few of them:








聽- As more fat the cream is as more she will hydrate your skin聽





A fat cream does not mean an optimal level of hydration. An overdose of fat can cover the dead cells and the result will be a tarnished looking skin . To be sure that you will get the optimal hydration聽 apply a serum of hydration before a moisturizing cream. Serums are more easy but they have active ingredients in higher concentrations and are absorbed quickly.








聽- If cloudy you don't have to use cream with solar protection





The clouds do not filter all harmful rays. When cold weather comes use daily moisturizing cream with 15 SFP to protect you. To grow the solar protection , you can use sunscreen and a serum rich in antioxidants as the moisturizing cream.





聽- Peeling in the winter will exacerbate dry spots





The peeling can accelerate the renewing of cell. The idea is to have a well-hydrated skin and not just by using cremes but also masks with hydrating effect . Hydrate聽 your skin after peeling, as the natural barrier of protection is poor. An exfoliant with gentle effect is the one based on enzymes.





聽- Using a balm will prevent split lips.





Only certain balsams will do so. Some usual ingredients may have adverse effect. Mineral oil creates an artificial film on your lips, pointing out your skin to stop the production of lipids, while balsams with flavors, colors and perfumes can dry your skin. Search balsams of lips with natural oils聽 , shea聽 or cocoa butter .





To get rid of peels apply a little face exfoliant on wet lips or use a soft toothbrush and gentle rub your lips 聽, after that apply the balsam. Wait until the spring to use balsams that gives your lips volume or those who resist longer , but which dries the skin of your lips .





聽- To have a beautiful skin you have to stay as much as you can at home





It is true that extreme temperatures can dehydrate you. But at home, because of artificial heat can happen the same thing. So you enjoy the fresh air outside and winter sports聽 , for interior buy a humidifier and use it especially at night.





聽- Leave aside the skin treatments





It is true that you have to let it easy with the use of creams with ingredients too powerful but you can do something else . Winter is the best time to begin a treatment for hair removal using laser, especially when is needed to avoid exposure to the sun. After this treatment apply an anti-inflammatory cream for your skin to regain its ability to recover.
