Between the dry, punishing air outside, the moisture-sucking showers we're taking to keep warm and the always-running heater, our skin is practically begging for a reprieve this time of year. And considering that it's our biggest organ, we should probably give it a little more love than just slapping on any ol' moisturizer whenever we remember.

The lotion should also feel silky—not oily or sticky—and have other benefits like preventing sunburn whenever possible. Read more about what to look for in a body lotion below.
