Hot Baths

A long soak in a steamy tub may seem like a delicious luxury, especially when the weather outside is frigid, but it will seriously deplete your skin of moisture. “Take showers or cut bath time down to a bare minimum, keep the water warm, not hot, and cover your body from neck to toes with a rich body lotion as soon as you get out of the shower, while your skin is still damp,” says Dr. Marmur.
