Wear rubber gloves to wash dishes. Wash all new undergarments before wearing them. To eliminate as much of the laundry detergent as possible, ensure that clothes are well rinsed. Wear cotton and wool. Wool provides excellent insulation while allowing the skin to breathe.
Natural cotton is kind to skin.
When worn under a layer of wool, cotton can keep you warm and comfy. Keep the air in your home moist. Some people use humidifiers in the winter. Hot water tends to rob the skin of moisture. This helps to retain the moisture from the bath or shower.
