There are many elements this winter that can suck the moisture out of your skin, like the dry, cold air and the scorching shower you take to feel something. We’re already dealing with so much, there’s no need to add dry, irritated, flaky skin to the mix. One way to help re-hydrate skin is with oatmeal body products like Marianna Hewitt, Summer Fridays co-founder. (Summer Fridays makes the moisturizing, editor-approved, IG-famous Jet Lag Mask, $48.) She shared on her Instagram stories (saved in her “Beauty” highlight) the product that her dermatologist recommended for her dry skin: Aveeno Soothing Bath Treatment, $7.

The box comes with eight single-use packets of 100 percent colloidal oatmeal. Colloidal oatmeal has been found to help reduce inflammation and itching, and can be used to help calm a variety of inflammatory skin conditions from eczema to bug bites. Many of our favorite derms have also sung the praises of this ingredient. Dermatologist Joshua Zeichner, MD, previously told Well+Good that “oat extract forms a protective and hydrating seal over the surface of the skin and contains anti-inflammatory avenanthremides.” And dermatologist Mona Gohara, MD, told us that oatmeal has “soothing effects.” (Please read both of those quotes in a movie trailer voice.) To reap the skin-soothing benefits, all you need to do is add a packet to your bathwater and soak for about 15-20 minutes.

I have dry patches of skin underneath my eyebrow hair, which makes my at-home brow tinting endeavors tricky because the dye sticks more to the dry skin than the hair. This gentle balm contains colloidal oatmeal, plus other nourishing ingredients like avocado oil and hemp seed oil that help with flaky, dry skin.
