Depending on where you live, winter can be harsh, especially for your skin. Heck, even in more moderate climates, drier air and blasting heaters can really suck the moisture right out of your skin, leaving you parched and lizard-like.
That means it's time to adjust your skin care routine accordingly — swap out those gel moisturizers for rich balms; your lightweight serums for extra-emollient face oils and so forth. And you know what? The drugstore has you covered, so there's no need to shell out an exorbitant amount of money on an entirely new cadre of seasonal products. Get ready to meet your new favorite winter skin care products — all courtesy of your local drugstore.
We're big fans of hyaluronic serums and this new wallet-friendly option from L'Oreal is especially exciting with its two forms of hyaluronic acid (paired together and designed to penetrate the skin at multiple levels).

Since they're so hydrating and great for repairing your skin barrier, ceramides are a natural pick for dry winter skin. This cream is lightweight but still highly moisturizing — and who can resist that luxurious rose scent?
