But a few fairly easy changes in your routine—switching out your laundry detergent, layering your skin care—can help build (and better retain) moisture in your skin. Top NYC dermatologist Dr. Robert Anolik says his patients do see more dry, dull, and even irritated skin at this time of year—here, he shares the tips that keep skin healthy and happy, no matter what the weather throws at us. “Combine cold, blustery winds with next to no humidity in the air and you’ve got a recipe for lack of moisture on your skin,” says Anolik, a board-certified dermatologist at the Laser & Skin Surgery Center of New York and a clinical assistant professor of dermatology at the NYU Grossman School of Medicine. “But often all it takes to keep your skin in great shape is a few extra steps.” Tip 1: Swap Your Laundry Detergent Switching to a gentler detergent can make a real difference in how your skin feels, especially because dry skin is more vulnerable to irritation. “Many people suffering from skin irritation experience relief when they switch to a detergent that’s free of fragrance and other irritants,” says Anolik. Unlike conventional detergent, Dropps Sensitive Skin & Baby Detergent pods are fragrance-free, dye-free, phosphate-free, phthalate-free, and paraben-free, so they’re incredibly gentle (not to mention much more environmentally friendly—what’s good for skin is good for the planet in this case). “My daughter has had sensitive skin pretty much from birth, so I’ve spent an insane amount of time researching detergents that wouldn’t irritate her skin,” says goop vice president of content Kate Wolfson, a longtime Dropps customer. “Dropps pods are the only detergent I use because they’re fragrance-free and so gentle on skin.” Dropps Sensitive Skin & Baby Detergent goop, $15 SHOP NOW Tip 2: Switch to a Gentler Cleanser “Long hot showers and soaps that strip the skin of its natural oils are major factors that dry out your skin in the winter,” says Anolik. “Take less frequent, less hot showers or baths. And switch to a gentle, hydrating cleanser.” If you have sensitive skin, Tata Harper has designed an entire line made without common skin irritants, and the cleanser is particularly fantastic. If dryness is the main issue, the gently exfoliating balm cleanser from True Botanicals is brilliant. And if you have oily or combination skin, the salicylic acid in Follain’s oil-control cleanser exfoliates, calms, and nourishes.
