Kat LeeFIVE STEPS TO HEALTHY WINTER SKIN
Alligator might be the accessory of choice on runways, but no one wants to be sporting the Arctic version of scaly and rough skin this season. Faze consulted with dermatologist Dr. Catherine Ruddy for simple changes to your skincare routine that can help keep your skin supple, soft and itch-free — even through a harsh Canadian winter.

1. MOISTURIZE
Think you don’t need to moisturize? Think again. Winter air is dry, robbing your face and body of moisture it needs to look healthy. According to Dr. Ruddy, this means moisturizer is key in your winter skincare routine. “Although moisturizers don’t actually add moisture to your skin, they do form a protective barrier and seal water into the skin and keep it from evaporating.” The moisturizer you choose will depend on you — there are literally thousands of products to choose from, with a huge array of prices, scents, textures and ingredients. According to Dr. Ruddy, “Certain moisturizers contain urea and lactic acid, which are molecules that retain moisture. These can be very helpful in winter. They can be a bit irritating on faces, but good for really dry areas on the body, especially feet.” Since your body and face have different needs, reserve the heavy-duty products for your body and lighter ones for your face.
