The winter months can mean a whole new skin care routine.
Between dry skin and chapped lips, we're focusing our efforts on combating cold-weather skin concerns and rounding up some of our favorite products to assist.
For example, try brands such as Weleda, with its ultra-rich body cream, and LANEIGE, with its viral Lip Sleeping Mask that doubles as an indulgent gift for skin care lovers.
We've included the La Roche-Posay Toleriane Hydrating Gentle Face Cleanser, one of our favorite gentle face washes that Lori Bergamotto also highlighted in an installment of "The Right Stuff" featuring winter skin savers.
Beauty expert Milly Almodovar once shared some of her winter skin care favorites with "GMA," including the Grown Alchemist Soothing Hand Cream and a scalp serum by Briogeo, as did Byrdie social media director Star Donaldson, who suggested a range of products for your face and body.
Dr. Whitney Bowe, a board-certified dermatologist and the founder of Dr. Whitney Bowe Beauty, once reminded "GMA" readers to "get back to basics" to reach your skin care goals. Bowe recommended products like retinoids and moisturizer.
"A good moisturizer is the foundation for a great skin routine," Bowe said at the time. "A great moisturizer should do two things: hydrate the skin and repair the skin barrier."
Don't miss additional favorites from CYKLAR, Tata Harper, AESTURA and Dr. Althea.
