Paula’s Choice 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant improves the texture of flaky skin with a brightening formula of salicylic acid and soothing green tea, which deep dive into pores to unclog dirt and debris. *Hyperpigmentation, acne scars, and dead winter skin have all left the chat.*


amazon.com, amazon.com

If you’re new to chemical exfoliants, greetings! You’ll definitely want to start off by applying this one or two times a week to take note of your skin’s response. Beta hydroxy acid (BHA, also known as salicylic acid) mimics the natural exfoliation process of younger skin by shedding extra layers while *also* unclogging and clearing pores.

Promising review: “Best exfoliant out there! Ditch the scrubs and start using a chemical exfoliant. I just revamped my entire skin care routine and added Paula’s Choice exfoliant to it. I have extremely sensitive and dry skin and often struggle to find skin care products that are effective. When used correctly, this exfoliant helps to rid my skin of the ungodly White Walker looking sheets of skin that fall off my face in the winter without being too harsh on my skin. Plus I swear I have noticed less blackheads on my face!” —Tray and Celia Henderson

Get it from Amazon for $10+ (available in two sizes).

Laura Mercier Oil-Free Tinted Moisturizer protects your skin with a broad spectrum shield of SPF 20, and provides a soft, sheer layer of coverage that treats dryness while still feeling like your actual skin (and not a greasy layer of baked-on makeup).

The tinted moisturizer on different skin tones


Sephora

I can attest that this foundation-alt doesn’t draw attention to patches of dryness — it actually does a great job of nourishing your skin as well as providing medium coverage to naturally mask blemishes. I especially love it because I can even out my skin tone in a pinch with just *one* product, instead of having to throw a bajillion things on my face to achieve a healthy-looking glow.

Promising review: “AMAZING! So lightweight and perfect for everyday. It literally looks like I am wearing nothing, but I have that extra coverage and it’s very buildable. SO worth every penny!” —Customer

O’Keeffe’s Nourishing Hand Cream prevents and treats flaky, cracked, weather-affected cuticles and dry patches. This miracle worker does wonders after just one use! It’s hands-down a true must-have.

Reviewer showing cracked hands and soft hands after using the lotion


amazon.com

Promising review: “Great lotion for dry, cracked hands or those that wash their hands frequently. I keep it in my bag at work (healthcare). Constant hand washing leaves my hands dry to the point that my fingertips split, especially in winter. When I first got this product, I used it once and hated it. Someone had recommended to me to try it again so I gave it a second chance and fell in love. There’s a fine line between the right amount and too much. Too much feels almost tacky on your skin. However, if you use too much, let it absorb for a few minutes and then wash the excess off, it still leaves your hands feeling restored. I’ve even used it around my nose and on my lips when they’re extremely dry. Works well for that too, but I wouldn’t recommend using it as a lip balm. No scent makes it even better as no one around you has to deal with a perfumey residue. Very glad I didn’t give up on this product!” —sstrobes

This stuff removes makeup and impurities without disrupting the protective barrier of your skin, plus it ~feeds~ it the moisture it needs on a daily basis.

Promising review: “I was kind of hesitant at first because the texture is like lotion, but don’t let it fool you! It’s such a great face wash! I have struggled with my acne for years and have tried a billion different products and none of them worked like this one. It took about a month of consistent use but it made my skin look almost flawless. I’m not wearing makeup in either pictures.” —Cassidy Cooper

Simple Kind To Skin Alcohol-Free Toner cleans and refreshes skin without causing irritation or overdrying. This potion in a bottle will calm raw, winter-affected skin with ingredients like witch hazel and chamomile to gently remove leftover makeup and pollutants.

The toner


Walmart

I am here to inform you that this has been a staple in my bathroom cabinet since my late teens, and, honestly, something I wish I had introduced into my routine sooner when I first started to get acne. I have very temperamental skin (especially come wintertime!) and this has been a constant to soothe and clear my face of impurities after cleansing. I’m also one of ~those~ people who finds it oddly satisfying to see the dirt come off on a cotton pad after I give my face a quick full swipe. (You’d be surprised at how much cleansers can miss!)

Promising review: “It’s the lightest toner in the market and at a great price. If you have sensitive skin, such as rosacea, this product will do the trick. I use it every night after washing off my makeup. Doesn’t sting or burn like other products that contain alcohol or other harsh chemicals.” —Customer

This trusted lotion contains hyaluronic acid and a non-comedogenic, fragrance-free formula.

Promising review: “I’ve been using this moisturizer exclusively for the past three years.

Biossance Squalane Oil rejuvenates from head to toe, tackling dry scalps, scaly elbows, and flaky cheeks (see: face or derrière). It’s become a taste-maker within the beauty industry for its multiple uses and praised by reviewers for its ability to reverse dry patches.

The squalane oil


Biossance

Promising review: “This oil is so amazing. Every winter, the skin on my torso and shins become unbearably dry, flaky, and will break out in hives. Nothing has ever helped sooth and calm it down…until I came across Biossance’s squalane oil. Heading into New England winter, I’m so glad I have this sidekick. I use it after showering, and I haven’t experienced my dreadful winter skin yet! I use it all over my body, and have even used it on my face and ends of my hair. I havent had any issues with breakouts on my face…and I have extremely reactive skin. This seriously have been a life saver.” —Mikki

BuzzFeed Editor Bek O’Connell says: “This is the stuff of dreams, people! I put it on my face at night after serum and before my night cream, and wake up with bouncy, bright skin. The first time I used it, I had overnight results. I am constantly yelling about this product to everyone who will listen; I even convinced my dermatologist to try it.”

BlushLips Silicone Exfoliating Brushes erase incredibly annoying chapped skin that can be found around your lips anytime of the year, but particularly in frigid temps. Use this with a balm or scrub to plump up your pout and prep your kisser for that ultra matte lipstick.

Person holding lip exfoliating tools


Amazon

Promising review: “My lips had gotten on this bizarre pattern of severely peeling every single day, and it looked so bad, that the only thing for me to do would peel the flaking skin, but that seemed to contribute to the problem. I tried several different kinds of lip balm, sugar scrubs, shea butter, but nothing worked. But after trying this (I used it several times a day very vigorously to exfoliate the dead and drying skin every time I felt them start to chap), it only took two days for my lips to get back to normal. A few weeks later, my lips started chapping again despite using lots of lip balm, and it only took a couple of exfoliations with this brush to get them back to normal again. Highly recommend!” —Kristen B.

Nuxe / Via instagram.com

“Nuxe’s Rêve de Miel lip balm is truly holy grail-tier IMHO. I bought my first pot at a pharmacy in Paris after hearing British beauty bloggers rave about it — and it did not disappoint. It’s quite thick when you first apply but it literally melts on your lips when you rub it in. It feels hydrating without being sticky, and a little goes a long way. My lips are basically never chapped — not even in the middle of winter — thanks to this dreamy lip salve. I’m pretty sure Nuxe stopped selling this in the US, so we are truly blessed that Amazon carries it. (Seriously, I love this lip balm so much that I accepted two pots of it as payment for house-sitting for a month.)” —Melanie Aman, BuzzFeed Editor

Promising review: “I have never taken time to review a product until now. This product is fantastic! I have very long fine hair that I get colored and highlighted every eight weeks. The last two winters have been very drying to my hair along with the chemical processing. My hair was starting to look like straw. I tried many products and home remedies and nothing was working. I had resigned myself to believing I would have to cut my hair. Then I saw this product and the reviews and decided to give it a try. I have used it twice and the transformation already is incredible. My hair is soft and shiny and healthy looking and it is full of body without using styling products or blow-drying. I have already ordered another jar. Highly recommend.” —Customer

Belif The True Cream Aqua Bomb releases *a ton* of hydration after just one use. This gel consistency is made up of nurturing ingredients like ceramides and glycerin so your winter skin can do you a favor by drinking in all the H2O that you forgot to chug throughout the day.


Kayla Suazo / BuzzFeed, Rachel Dunkel / BuzzFeed

The moisturizer works for all skin types and is oil-, phthalate-, paraben-, and sulfate-free.

This stuff has a cult following — and for good reason. As BuzzFeed Writer Rachel Dunkel explains, “Aqua Bomb moisturizer is easily my desert island skincare product. Although I have dry-leaning combination skin, I hate most moisturizers because creamy formulas feel heavy and just yucky to me, especially under makeup. Aqua Bomb’s gel-like consistency absorbs like a dream. It’s soothing to stressed out skin in the winter and cooling through the heat of summer. I recommend it to friends of all skin types because it gives your skin that bouncy hydration it craves without feeling oily in the slightest. I took a break from it for a while to try out other products but JUST ordered a big tub so I can return to using it daily for the rest of my life. It’s unbeatable, IMO.”

Glossier Priming Moisturizer packs a punch with a powerhouse blend of shea butter and ceramides that melt into your skin to lock in moisture. You’ll want to add this ultra-rich, noncomedogenic formula to the lineup to cancel harsh winds taking a toll on your precious skin.


AnaMaria Glavan/BuzzFeed

“My skin gets pretty damn dry in the winter, meaning I need to put on a crap ton of moisturizer on my face…both morning and night. But here’s the problem, my friends: Most heavier creams make my skin initially oily, and putting ‘em on in the morning means looking like a greaseball all day. But have no fear, because Glossier’s Priming Moisturizer Rich is here! (Well, it has been for quite a while, but I’m just trying it now.) First thought: The smell is very pleasant, almost like a subtle lavender. Second thought: It absorbs into my skin SUPER quickly. Within minutes, my skin feels super moisturized, but there’s no greasy film enjoying itself on my T-zone. AND! It calms down the redness around my nose and cheeks and leaves a smooth, dewy canvas that lets makeup glide on and blend in with ease. Plus, I’ve noticed that my concealer stays on significantly longer when I use this, which, to be honest, is nothing short of a Christmas miracle because my makeup NEVER lasts. I definitely recommend this for people who have sensitive, dry-to-normal skin!” —AnaMaria Glavan, BuzzFeed Editor

I am an avid user of this stuff whenever my undereye area is feeling a little ~fragile~. The winter stresses me out for many reasons, but especially because of the toll is takes on my sensitive skin.

Callus Remover Gel reverses crusty feet epidermis (that I typically hideaway in socks for most of the season) back to their OG baby-soft state. If you want to rip off the bandaid (your socks) and let your hooves see the light of day, this miracle-worker will gift you with brand-new feet that you’ll be proud to parade around.

Folks, after just one treatment with this hardworking gel, I can report my feet are as soft as a baby’s bum! Seriously. It literally reset my hard, calloused skin, and now I barely even recognize the toes that are wiggling before me! I honestly can’t believe I had gone so long just suffering with unsightly callouses. So if you have tough, hard skin that you’ve vowed is beyond repair, do yourself a favor and add this to cart. Oh, and for spa-worthy results, use a pumice stone first and always wear gloves when applying the gel.

Promising review: “This product is AMAZING!!! im so glad that I found this product! I suffer from dry skin and very dry feet and heels during the winter and they have the tendency to be cracked and hard. THIS WAS MY SAVING GRACE!!! now dont be fooled, you still have to put a little elbow grease into buffing your feet after applying this product, but the dead, dry, rough skin literally just melts off and you are left with baby smooth feet!!! It really really is as good as the reviews say. They have earned a customer for life in me. Don’t straddle the fence, BUY IT!!!” —Roses and Red Lollipops

Get it from Amazon for $13.97.
