As winter settles in, many of us notice that our skin begins to feel dry, tight, and a little dull.
The colder months bring challenges like harsh winds, low humidity, and indoor heating that can strip your skin of its natural moisture.
But don’t worry!
With my winter skin care tips, you can keep your skin hydrated, healthy, and radiant all season long.
Check out my practical tips and product recommendations to start a winter skin care routine for dry skin.
1. Skin Hydration Tips
Proper hydration starts with drinking enough water. How many glasses of water do you drink per day?
While it may not be as tempting to sip water during the colder months, staying hydrated is key for maintaining supple skin. This is a perfect way to hydrate your skin and body.
Pair this with a moisturizing skincare product like belif The True Cream Moisturizing Bomb, which works wonders in replenishing moisture.
2. Choose a Gentle Cleanser for Dry Skin
Your usual cleanser might be too harsh for winter.
Opt for a gentle, hydrating cleanser that won’t strip your skin of its natural oils. Avon’s Rice Water Bright Foaming Cleanser is a great choice, leaving your skin soft and clean without over-drying.
3. Exfoliate Face Wisely
Exfoliation is essential to remove dead skin cells, but it’s important to be gentle and intentional in winter.
Try Avon’s Anew Vitamin C Exfoliating Peel Pads for a luminous complexion. These pads are soaked in a blend of exfoliating PHA and pineapple extract to buff away dullness gently.
Enriched with vitamin C, they also help visibly brighten your skin, giving you that radiant glow even in the coldest months. Add this product to your dry skin care routine for glowing skin this winter.
4. Upgrade Your Body Moisturizer for Dry Skin
Winter calls for a thicker body lotion for dry skin to lock in hydration. Avon’s Moisture Therapy Bonus-Size Intensive Healing & Repair Body Lotion is ideal for dry winter skin. It soothes, protects, and deeply hydrates, making it one of the best affordable body moisturizer lotions for dry skin.
5. Don’t Skip Sunscreen
Should you use sunscreen in the winter?
Yes, sunscreen is a must even in winter!
The sun’s UV rays can still cause damage, so protect your skin with a broad-spectrum SPF.
Avon’s Isa Knox ANEW Solaire Everyday Face Protection Lotion Broad Spectrum SPF 50 is lightweight and hydrating—perfect for year-round use. With niacinamide and peony extracts, it will keep your skin hydrated while complementing your skincare routine.
6. Pamper Your Skin Overnight
Use a hydrating night cream or mask to take advantage of your body’s natural repair process is an easy winter skin care hack.
Avon’s Anew Hydra Fusion Nighttime Facial Treatment combines hyaluronic acid, raspberry seed extract, and shea butter to nourish your skin while you sleep.
7. Protect Your Dry Lips
Chapped lips are a common winter woe. Keep them soft and smooth with Avon’s Beyond Glow Lipcerin Intensive Nourishing Lip Care.

10. Take Shorter, Lukewarm Showers
Long, hot showers may feel amazing on chilly days, but they can strip your skin of its natural oils.
Stick to lukewarm water and follow up with a rich, clean, plant-infused body cream like Avon’s Skin So Soft Pure Nature Body Cream to keep your skin soft and hydrated.
