Is anyone else suffering with dry skin this winter? The climate here has been BAD lately. Very dry air with temperatures rarely going above 20F. It's the middle of the day right now and it's 15F. In the morning and night it's around 0F, sometimes lower. I mean it's Wisconsin so ofc it's cold but damn. Because of this, everyone's skin is pretty dry. I've never had issues with it until now so it must just be colder than usual.
But anyway, my knuckles are the main issue. I had chapped lips a week ago but they're fine now. I've begun obsessively putting on Vaseline Total Moisture lotion (5-7 times a day) and they're already so much better

my skin is naturally dry too so this is a relief. It's damn painful during the school day once my lotion gets fully absorbed and my knuckles are dry again.
There's some nasty bitches at my school with the WORST looking faces

flaky, pale skin... I already put lotion on my face every morning so that looks fine. I just don't get how people can live looking a crusty mess when this is such a bad time of the year for skin.
