It's that time of year when your skin gets dry, cracked, and irritated due to the weather.

Dry skin has a lower level of sebum and can be prone to sensitivity.  This "parched" look is caused by its inability to retain moisture.  It usually feels tight and uncomfortable after washing unless some type of moisturizer or skin cream is applied.  Chapping and cracking are signs of extremely dry, dehydrated skin.

Dryness is exacerbated by wind, extreme temperature and air-conditioning, all of which cause the skin to flake, chap, and feel tight.  This type of skin is tightly drawn and can appear dull and/or create fine lines, especially on your cheeks and around your eyes.
