It feels like my skin barrier has completely collapsed.

The weather has been so cold and dry lately, maybe because of that. Even when I apply my usual cosmetics, my face stings. Especially if I don't apply something right after washing my face, it feels like my skin is going to burst.

Maybe it's because the temperature difference between indoors and outdoors is so large, but my flushing has gotten worse, and my skin condition is generally at rock bottom. At times like this, I worry that even a pack might be too irritating, so I apply only creams with as few mild ingredients as possible.

I hope the weather clears up soon. I wonder if the end of winter is always this hard to manage. Is everyone's skin doing well?
