Why does my skin get so dry in the winter?

As the seasons change and bring cooler and drier air, your skin can become dehydrated. The dryness, itchiness, flakiness, and cracking of ALL areas of your body can make the already miserable winter months even worse.

It also doesn't help that to keep warm, you may crank up your heat and take long hot showers. This can also contribute to the itchy and dry skin you experience during the winter months.
