Humidifiers To Help Get You Through the Bleakest Winter Months
Don't be left out to dry.
Dry winter air is perhaps the worst thing that can possibly happen to your skin. Save for sunburn. Or lack of sun. I don’t know. It’s a hard world out there for skin, is I guess my point.
One way to combat your dry-ass winter skin, besides some great, noninvasive skincare products, is a humidifier. Humidity is, after all, that silent killer of the summer months that leaves you extra sweaty and breathless and gross. Humidifiers provide all the benefits of some well-moisturized summer skin, with none of the “stinking up the subway four minutes after you’ve left your house.” Here are six humidifiers people love, perfect for these long, dark months ahead.
