8 Ways to Smooth and Firm Rough Winter Skin

Cold weather begets dry skin. It’s an equation we forget until we’re faced with patchy, rough skin under our long sleeves and leggings again. The answer to reviving winter skin lies in full-body scrubs and firming creams that encourage cell turnover for fresher-looking skin. While we can’t all book a full-body spa day, we can exfoliate, hydrate and buff at home. Here are 8 skin-smoothers that will get your body back into a springtime mood.
