Winter brings with it a lot of skin problems, especially dry and inflamed skin. It is important to pamper your skin extra during this season; therefore, Boldsky provides to you a list of weird beauty tricks that you should follow this winter season.

Along with treating your skin with extra care, you should also focus on your hair, as the cold season can absorb the natural moisture from your hair making your scalp itchy and dry. Alongside, this is the season where you will tend to develop more acne too, so applying toothpaste on those ugly zits can make it disappear overnight.
