Hey, it's Bob, Today’s tip is about winter skin survival—when cold air and indoor heating tag-team your moisture barrier.

In winter, evaporation from your skin increases dramatically. That’s why your face, lips, and hands can feel tight, flaky, or even crack. Keys concentrated formulas are especially valuable in this season.

First, don’t over-wash with hot water. Use lukewarm water and Island Rx, then gently pat dry, leaving a hint of dampness. Immediately follow with a richer layer than you might use in summer: Nextra Body or Reflex first, then Luminos on top. For extremely dry skin, add a thin veil of Tortuga as the final step at night.

On the body, especially legs and hands, apply Nextra Body right after showering, then spot-treat with Tortuga where cracks or roughness appear.

Using a humidifier indoors and drinking plenty of water complements what you’re doing on the surface.

Winter doesn’t have to mean uncomfortable skin—just shift your Keys routine into “cold-weather mode.”
