2. Layer Up Just as you'd layer up with cozy sweaters, your skin requires extra protection as well. Start with a hydrating serum, add a dollop of moisturizer, and seal the deal with a facial oil. It's like creating a chic skincare parfait, and your skin will thank you with a radiant runway-worthy glow.
