To most of us, moisturizing is an everyday ritual. How often you moisturize, your face depends on the weather, how much time you spend exposed to the elements, and how dry your skin is. There are certain times during the year when it's better to make sure that you're keeping your face hydrated – winter and windy spring weather can be harsh on our skin. The best time to use a moisturizer or even try out a new collection of products is at the beginning of autumn, just before summer ends and winter begins.
