There actually is something you can do for a painful dried-out nose - saline spray. It's just saline, this is not the kind that you'll become addicted to if you use it longer than 3 days. Just a squirt or two in each nostril will moisturize the inside of your nose, and it's also great if you work in an office with really dry air.
For my skin in the winter I usually just switch from using a lotion to a body butter instead.

(This is not in reaction to the rally, but to the fact that this dog is wearing clothes and probably hates her owner right about now.)
At first I thought "oh hey, I have a short bathrobe just like that" and then I realized she was wearing shoes (nice heels, btw!) and had a purse and that it is actually not a bathrobe. Oops?
