OhioHealth Hint

As the temperature dips, the cold takes a toll on our skin. You can fight the effects of Jack Frost by following these tips:

  • Make moisture mandatory by prioritizing moisturizing your skin.
  • Use sunscreen! The sun might be hiding, but UV rays can still penetrate your skin. Look for a moisturizer or sun screen with a sun protection factor of 30.
  • Protect your fingers, nose and ears. Any skin that is constantly exposed to the cold will be affected – especially your hands.
