I'm curious about effective home care methods for weather like this.

With the weather suddenly getting chilly, I've noticed my skin getting flaky and dull. Yesterday, I met up with some friends I hadn't seen in a while, and they told me their makeup wasn't going on and they looked a bit excited, which was really frustrating. So, I've decided to start practicing a consistent home skincare routine. I used to think I could just apply a generous layer of moisturizer, but as time goes by, I'm starting to realize that's not enough. I searched online and found so many different tools and cosmetics that it's hard to decide what order to follow for my home skincare routine. What steps do you take every night to moisturize your skin? I want to learn from your tips and practice a thorough home skincare routine to achieve smooth skin again. Do you have any easy-to-follow routines or tips you can recommend, even for beginners?
