Winter weather is harsh — especially on your skin. Between bomb cyclones and ice storms, braving the elements can be extra tough on your complexion. That’s why we turn to beauty products with hydrating ingredients to nourish dry, red, and irritated winter skin. Click through to see some of our holy-grail dry skin beauty saviors.
Amala
Hydrating Yogurt Mask ($64): Dry, chapped winter skin is no match for this sensitive-skin face mask. In addition to moisturizing, this formula also softens and refines the skin's texture and smoothes fine lines.
Benefit Boi-ing Hydrating Concealer ($20): For those who want lightweight coverage with hydration that will actually smooth the appearance of fine lines, say hello to Boi-ing by Benefit. Use it on its own or pop it over another concealer for even more coverage, moisture, and smoothness.
Dr. Jart+ Water Replenishment Sheet Mask ($8): We all need an excuse this winter to take a little time to pamper ourselves. Thankfully, this sheet mask gives us just that — plus nourished, glowing skin.
Glossier Moisturizing Moon Mask ($22): This mask is created with sweet almond oil, squalene, and hyaluronic acid, as well as brightening ingredients like licorice root and lemon fruit extract to enliven the skin. Leave it on for 20 minutes and see your skin become more plump and soft to the touch.
Red Earth Hydrate Supercharge Serum With Tasmanian Sea Kelp ($41): You can thank sea kelp and marine collagen for the healthy-looking complexion after using this Aussie serum. Apply it each day (and night if you’re extra attentive) for supple skin.
Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Water Foundation ($39): This lightweight formula does heavy-duty work during the cold-weather months. Boasting full-coverage and SPF 15 protection, this formula is made of 20 percent water, which your dry winter skin will drink right up.
Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask ($20): Is it just us, or do our lips suffer the most in the winter? Since our skin (lips included) does most of its regeneration while we sleep, it only makes sense to put on a lip mask before bed — especially one that's made with vitamin C and berries for some serious antioxidants.
Kiehl's Ultra Facial Overnight Hydrating Mask ($35): When dealing with flaky, irritated skin, reach for a deep-conditioning mask that gets to work while you rest. Keep this rich solution on standby for overnight relief all season long.
