Expert tips on how to protect your skin and body this winter

As winter approaches, shorter days and colder temperatures do more than just nudge you indoors—they can also impact your physical and emotional wellbeing. Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), commonly linked to low mood and fatigue, affects millions each year. But what often goes unnoticed is how these winter slowdowns show up on your skin and body. Dullness, dehydration, breakouts, and increased irritation are all common signs of the season’s toll.

According to Dr. Kevin Hayavi, Medical Director at Beverly Hills Physicians, the connection between mental wellbeing and skin health is much stronger than most people realize. “Winter affects us holistically,” he explains. “When your mood dips or sleep becomes irregular, your skin reflects those internal changes almost immediately.”

The good news? With a few intentional shifts in your routine, you can protect your skin, body, and mood all season long. Read the article for the five expert-backed changes you should make this winter.
