Why dry skin can make you look older: Winter is hard on skin, and during the holidays long days spent cooking (and hand washing) can make dry skin crack and look years older. Dry facial skin — which can be stressed out by indoor heat and outdoor frosty temps — can make your skin look dull and lackluster. Combat dry facial skin by slathering on rich moisturizers (doesn't need to be expensive to work well) or indulging in a moisturizing facial. For cracked skin on your body, try something simple but heavy duty like Bag Balm (this formula has been around for more than 100 years!)
