1. Perricone MD More Than Moisture SPF 30

2. Lypsyl Lip Moisturizer
A rich, hydrating lip balm is a must all year round, but especially in winter when your lips are more prone to chapping, dryness and irritation. Lypsyl Lip Moisturizer in Honey Berry smooths on easily, contains a powerful SPF to protect against damaging UVA and UVB rays and contains hydrating avocado butter, shea butter and Vitamins A and E to help moisturize, soothe and protect lips all season long.

3. Murad Sensitive Skin Soothing Serum
If you have sensitive skin, you need to be especially cautious during winter when redness and irritation can be even more prevalent. Murad’s sensitive skin soothing serum works to calm red, irritated skin while replenishing moisture to get rid of that tight, dry feeling. It’s pricey, but if you want to have a gorgeous and radiant complexion all season long, you should definitely try this potent serum.

4. Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Intensive Moisture Wrap Body Treatment
The skin on your body needs to be protected from winter conditions just as much as the skin on your face, so treat it well with Neutrogena’s intensive body lotion. This lotion contains a unique glycerin-rich complex that soothes and heals overly dry, uncomfortable and irritated skin while locking in moisture all day long. It’s suitable for daily use and, despite its intense hydrating properties, this lotion is surprisingly lightweight.

Help heal them with this intensive hand lotion, which gently exfoliates while it moisturizes for smooth, healthy hands all season long.
