With the arrival of winter and the ushering in of chic coats, toasty heaters, and delicious hot chocolates and mulled wines can, unfortunately, come the addition of dry, dull, irritated and flaky skin. Even those with the hardiest, most balanced skin types can fall victim to chapped lips, a suddenly uneven skin tone or, worst of all, that tight, itchy, overly clean feeling after cleansing. Fortunately, there are products formulated with these same concerns in mind, and we have curated a list of our favourites.
