As winter is upon us, dry skin has become an unwelcome reality.
2026 is just around the corner, and with our skin feeling the effects of the season, many are diving into Ina Garten’s soup recipes while preparing for the impending snowstorms this weekend.
As for me? I’m feeling pretty good. It’s that cozy time of year—perfect for sheet masks, bubble baths, and maybe finally using those bath salts that have been collecting dust for ages. It’s about establishing some solid skincare routines.
Before I get into sharing some exciting deals and new favorites, this edition of the beauty report focuses on must-have solutions for dealing with dry skin this winter. And don’t forget, we have some promo codes too.
Check out some great deals below—oh, and the worthwhile products you’ve been showing off to your friends on FaceTime. Seriously, don’t miss this beauty report. Think of it as your personal winter skincare diary.
First up is a classic for dry skin. I’ve been using this cream since middle school, and it’s still a staple on my shelf. It’s designed for sensitive skin and provides incredible moisture—plus, the colloidal oatmeal in it is super soothing. The good news? It’s currently under $30.
If you’re after something for hair, there’s a Jumbo Size deeply nourishing mask available at Ulta Beauty. While it’s a bit pricey, it’s definitely worth it for year-round hydration, keeping your scalp healthy.
Naked & Thriving is quickly becoming a go-to brand for me. Everyone seems to rave about their eye cream, and it’s incredibly moisturizing for dry skin. Right now, you can snag a 15% discount on their Mini Day Sets with the code NYP15 at checkout. Seriously, you won’t regret it.
For fragrance lovers, Le Monde Gourmand offers a beautifully sweet scent that I’ve been obsessed with this winter. You can grab it for 20% off using the exclusive code new york post 20.
And don’t miss out on the Abib lip mask. It’s a bit on the sticky side but does wonders for hydration. It’s always on my nightstand, and if you’re looking to switch from LANEIGE, this one is a solid option.
Lastly, even in the thick of winter, daily sunscreen is non-negotiable (I’m really adamant about this!). The Dr. G RED Blemish Soothing Up Moisture Sunscreen SPF 30 is fantastic; it’s packed with hyaluronic acid and is available to our readers. Use code NYP promo for a 20% discount at checkout. Trust me; it’s worth it.
