The Dry Skin Season

As winter sets in, my skin gets very ashy. What do I do to stop it? -- Dave in Denver

Dear Dave,

Turn down the temperature of your shower water.  Try moisturizing your skin with body lotion or baby oil (for your face, look for facial moisturizers -- other lotions can cause break-outs).

And drink as much water as you can (moisturizing from the inside out).

For more tips, swing into a hair salon and ask around -- your friendly stylists will have more than enough strategies and products to try.
