Winter does something to a person's skin, hair, and general confidence that summer never quite manages. The dry patches show up uninvited, static turns every hair touch into a small electric shock, lips crack at the worst possible moment, and suddenly you're dealing with problems that nobody really prepared you for outside of a dermatologist's office.

Most people just accept these as the cost of the season and push through until spring, which is unnecessary when there are products built specifically to handle every single one of these issues. This list covers the best of them, from the embarrassing to the deeply uncomfortable, so the next few months don't have to involve quietly suffering through problems that already have solutions sitting on a shelf.

    Review: "Although kind of pricey for hand sanitizer, they do smell great and they do have a great look and feel to them. The spray is easy to use and it seems like they'll last a while. I like how they're relatively flat and can slip into pockets within bags or coats and not create a bulge. I haven't used them enough to tell if they make my hands dry out, but so far after a few spritzes, they don't feel dry or sticky." - Sophie S.

    Review: "Small, cute and makes your skin feel soft and clean. Kind of rough like sandpaper, but leaves skin feeling really nice. Takes a couple seconds of rubbing at first to start feeling the rough texture. Be patient. I have really sensitive skin, especially around my nose and on my cheeks, but I only experienced a tiny bit of redness a few minutes after using. No stinging or burning whatsoever. Easy to hold and to keep in the shower. Haven’t notice any obvious change in blackheads on my face, but it sure exfoliates great enough to buy again. I do wish it was bigger, but other than that, NO COMPLAINTS." - Meezal
