Waking up with chapped lips and flaky skin? Hello, winter.

The winter months can take a toll on one's skin, whether you suffer from dryness, cracking or itchiness.

"Good Morning America" asked board-certified dermatologist Dr. Whitney Bowe to share trends, tips and all things skin care at the top of the new year.

"I am seeing a concerning trend across all age groups," Bowe said. "Skin care routines are getting more and more complicated, and the truth is, that is not what our skin needs."

Tip 1: Go back to basics in 2024

"To have healthy and glowing skin and to reach our skin care goals, we need to declutter and get back to basics," Bowe said.

Tip 2: Add retinoids to your routine

"Retinoids are one of the most powerful ingredients in all of skin care," Bowe said. "They're not only great for treating acne and preventing breakouts, but some retinoids can reverse signs of aging in the skin -- firming skin and smoothing out lines and wrinkles if you use them consistently over time."

Tip 3: Invest in a great moisturizer

"A good moisturizer is the foundation for a great skin routine," Bowe said. "A great moisturizer should do two things: hydrate the skin and repair the skin barrier."

Bowe recommends using your moisturizer every single day, twice a day. Both morning and night, she suggests putting your moisturizer over your serums and under your sunscreen.

Tip 4: Don't sleep on vitamin C

"Vitamin C is one of my favorite skin care staples because a well-formulated vitamin C serum will brighten dark spots on the skin and even out skin tone, boost collagen synthesis in the deeper layers of skin, and protect your skin from pollution and UV rays," Bowe said.
