• Moisturize your skin frequently throughout the day with a non-irritating, fragrance free moisturizer such as Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion
• Make it a habit to carry lip balm and apply it frequently also try not to bite or pick at your lips.
• For hands and feet that are especially effected by the season use a hand cream that contains shea butter and other emollients to soothe and smooth.
• Use tissues that contain lotion when you have the sniffles. They tend to be softer on your nose.
• Eye drops that help remove redness from the eyes are also good to carry during the cold months.
