Hi loves! If you deal with dry skin, I feel you.

My skin used to get so dry during fall and winter that it would actually peel—no matter how much moisturizer I used. After lots of trial and error, I finally found a few products that keep my skin comfortable, hydrated, and flake-free. These have truly changed my skin, so let’s get into my favorites.

1. OSEA Seaglow Resurfacing Scrub

Even though my skin leans dry, gentle exfoliation has been a game-changer for hydration. I usually avoid physical exfoliants on my face, but this one completely surprised me. It’s incredibly mild and leaves my skin feeling smooth rather than stripped. It helps remove dry patches and flaky skin while still cleansing gently, which allows my skincare products to absorb better afterward.

2. Alpyn Beauty Super Peptide & Ghostberry Barrier Repair Cream

This moisturizer is a dream for dry or compromised skin. The texture is rich and comforting without feeling heavy, and it instantly makes my skin look plump and glowy. It’s the kind of cream that feels like it’s actively repairing your skin barrier while you wear it.

Dry skin doesn’t have to mean tight, flaky, or uncomfortable skin. Finding the right balance of gentle exfoliation and deep hydration completely transformed my routine. These products keep my skin nourished, smooth, and glowing all season long—and I don’t miss the peeling one bit.
