As winter settles across northern and central India, health and skincare experts are urging citizens to adopt essential seasonal care routines to stay healthy, hydrated and protected during the colder months.

Here are out top picks for winter care :

Hydration and Moisturising Take Priority

Dermatologists report a spike in complaints of dry, flaky and irritated skin during winter. Experts recommend:

Applying thick, hydrating moisturisers immediately after bathing
Choosing products with shea butter, ceramides, hyaluronic acid
Limiting long, hot showers which strip natural oils
Using mild, non-foaming cleansers to protect skin barriers

Boosting Immunity Through Nutrition

Nutritionists stress the importance of strengthening the immune system as temperatures fall. Suggesting :

Increasing intake of vitamin C-rich fruits, such as oranges, amla and guava
Consuming warm herbal teas, ginger and turmeric
Including seasonal vegetables, leafy greens and nuts in daily meals
Drinking adequate water, even if thirst reduces in winter

Warm homemade soups, jaggery, ghee in moderation, and protein-rich foods can help maintain energy levels and immunity throughout the season.

Layer Up and Stay Warm

General physicians advise appropriate layering to avoid sudden temperature changes and prevent seasonal flu, sinus infections and joint stiffness. Recommendations include:

Wearing three layers: inner cotton, insulating wool, outer windproof
Keeping feet, ears and head covered in colder regions
Using blankets or heaters safely to avoid dryness or overheating

Humidify Indoor Spaces

As heating systems and cold winds reduce moisture in the air, experts recommend:

Using a humidifier in bedrooms at night
Keeping bowls of water in rooms as a budget alternative
Allowing natural ventilation during the day

This helps reduce throat dryness, congestion and skin irritation.

Don’t Neglect Sun Protection

Even in winter, UV rays remain harmful. You are advised applying SPF 30 or above daily, especially during morning walks or outdoor activities.

Stay Active to Maintain Overall Health

Fitness trainers emphasise the importance of daily movement to avoid winter fatigue. Simple activities such as brisk walking, yoga, indoor stretching or home workouts help improve circulation and mood.
