Win Winter Fabulous Skin!

RoC-Multi-Correxion-Skin-Perfecting-System

I'm not what you'd call a winter person. While I was born in tundra-like Upstate New York, I spent my formative years in the Middle East where, as you can imagine, snow was scarce. I never really had to deal with any of the skin issues that come with cold weather.

That all changed when I moved back; as soon as it started to get cold my complexion would get dull, flaky, dry and red. As I've gotten older, I've started to notice that in addition to these problems, winter dryness is also leading to my skin looking older, with fine lines and light pigmentation popping up seemingly overnight. Ug!

Lately I've been scouring around trying to find the perfect combination of products to help all of these issues: the dryness, pigmentation, fine lines and dullness. It's been a struggle to find a regimen that addresses all of these needs AND doesn't cost me a fortune.

Enter the RoC Multi Correxion Skin Perfecting System. I was totally intrigued by the name -- I mean, hello, who doesn't want perfect skin?!? -- and the 3-piece set is exactly what I was looking for. It contains a Daily Perfecting Cleanser that gently removes dirt and oil and softens the skin; an SPF 30 Daily Protecting Crème to protect against the sun, even skin tone and texture, and add radiance to the skin; plus an Intensive Night Concentrate for face and eyes that uses retinol to minimize fine lines and wrinkles and smooth out your skin. Best of all, it's all just $44.99, so totally easy on your wallet.

Want to try the Multi Correxion set for yourself? Well you're in luck because we teamed up with RoC to offer one lucky reader their very own Skin Perfecting System. To win, simply tell us what your biggest winter skin woe is in the comments below and you'll be entered to win.

Dry , itchy, ashy winter skin! From my feet to my face, winter does a great job of torturing my skin:(

My worst winter skin problem is dryness and with the extra dry skin it seems like those wrinkles just seem to pop out.

Thanks so much!

My worst skin issue during the winter is chapping (sp?) from wind. If I'm outside for just a little bit my skin gets irrated and so dried out from the cold.

My biggest winter skin problem is dull skin.

My skin gets so dull in the dry winter months. It's tight, dry and just plain thirsty! LOL...this would really help! Thanks for the chance to win!

My biggest concern is my combo skin. My eye and neck areas are dry, but, my t-zone is still oily. I need a gentle cleanser and good moisturizers. Thanks!

My skin is combination. It gets oily, and then dry and cracked. Thanks!

My skin is so so so so dry in the winter it's crazy. I've tried everything and no matter what a few hours after I put moisturizer on in the morning and then make up, my skin feels tight and dry. It also doesn't help that throughout all this dryness I get allergy related hives on my chin!

my biggest winter skin woe is my forehead breaking outtt

My biggest winter skin problem is dry skin.

Dry, flaky, itchy winter skin is my worst problem. Thanks for the chance to win! :)

I have combo skin tthat is aging. i want smooth beautiful skin. I want to try ROC!

My face is so dry it absorbs any moisturizer I try,it's like I can't get enough moisture and then the fine lines and wrinkles appear. I like to feel dewey and that is hard to achieve here in Minnesota in the winter.

Thanks

Dry skin is always a big problem for me in the winter, but I also experience flaky skin which is also hard to take care of.

My skin dries out so much that where ever I have acne, it's just one big flake area. It's disgusting, and I'm desperately looking for better options than what i'm using right now!

Even though I have combination skin, in winter time my skin gets really dry and I hae to change my moisturizer to compensate for the weather changes. I hope I win and get to try this new system :-)

My biggest winter skin woe: dry, flaky skin! Honestly, it's more embarrassing than having a gigantic zip on the tip of your nose. It's dry, so normal facial lotions don't provide a benefit and it's flaky which makes wearing foundation look über-stoopid. Sooooo ready for a product that delivers on its promises!

My biggest winter woe is super dry cracked peeling skin! yuk! I have very dry skin anyway, but then cold winter weather makes it so much worse. Also my face gets irritated from the cold dry weather and looks older and breaks out....This would be perfect to help my poor skin!
Thanks!

My winter skin problem is all over dry, flaking, itching and tight feeling. Boy that would be very nice to have. Have trying alot, and nothing works..Could you help! :D

My biggest winter skin woe is most definitely dry itchy skin. I can't seem to apply enough lotion or cream to keep the itchiness away!

My biggest winter skin problem is that my skin gets so dry i start to peal, especially around my nose!!

I used to deal with dry skin year round. However, as I've gotten older my skin suddenly turned oily. So now with winter approaching, I see some signs of dry skin that make me look older than I am, but moisturizers make my skin oily and I break out. This even happens with ones specifically for oily skin.

My biggest winter skin woe is that I have dry patches on my face that get flaky. It looks awful! I really need to win!

My face gets so dry and tight and seems like nearly impossible to get clear!

Even in winter I have aging combo skin, ultra dry on my cheeks, but still oily on my T-zone. So I end up with flakes on my cheeks, blemishes on my nose, chin and forehead and lines all over. Not fun to treat. :-(

My biggest winter skin woe is DRY SKIN!! My forehead, eyelids and nose get extremely dry during the colder months. It's becomes so hard to apply makeup without looking cakey...

My worst problem winter is also dry skin especially around my lips.

my skin is extra dry and red. i want perfect skin!!!

I love winter.... but winter doesn't like my skin! My biggest winter skin woe is the dryness, tightness and new wrinkles of my face which is looking for some help for the perfect soft and smooth feel this winter.

My skin gets very dry and looks not good.

i have the dreaded older skin that has been abused all summer with sun and wind . now that winter is here i look like a sick snake, with scaley blotchy skin. i really need this ROC !!!

Yes, I've got the dry, flaky skin during the winter months, but what about that AND an oily nose and chin? That combination is not fun in the winter. ROC is my answer - I've got to try it!

Harsh winters leave my skin looking dull and feeling dried out. I've tried many products to balance my combination skin during winter months, but nothing has restored my skin to its glowing youthful state!

I always seem to suffer from dry skin in the winter months.I would love to try ROC,thanks!

Like most women, All my hard work and time spent pampering this face seem's to go down the drain once winter comes around. So much for my "flawless, sun-kissed glow", Clear complexion and perfectly hydrated cheeks. No matter what i do! Every Winter my family portraits could've looked a little better...if only i caked on a little more make up right? haha Sadly, i am allergic to make up :( ..i know, NOT FAIR. So i'm a happy girl if i could only get -moisturizer- to do it's job! The RoC Multi Correxion Skin Perfecting System looks and sounds "perfect" for the job! Thanks for the Opportunity!

As a teen and into my 30's I struggled with oily/acne prone skin. This has left my skin with some uneven coloring and texture. Now at 41 I have some dryness around my eyes and cheeks. It truly is a battle trying to find the right product for all of my facial needs. I really would love to try this product because it sounds so good.
Thank you.

My hands get so dry. I work with them everyday just like everyone else. My fingers crack and its hard to wear a bandage around my finger while working. Thanks for the chance to win!!

My skin gets very dry and itchy. Also, my face gets red and patchy. Yuck and Ouch!

my biggest skin problem in the winter is my uneven skin tone and the texture.i want to try ROC!! i really really need it.THANK

Acne breaks out like crazy on my forehead in Winter, and on top of the acne, literally on top, my pimples get dry and itchy and inflamed. I put moisturizer on it, but it just clogs my pores even more and I gets more pimples!!! I've also noticed some dark spots on my cheekbones, like sunspots. And my face gets very pale and dull during the Winter. Yeah, my face gets pretty messed up in the Winter. Especially since I'm in Colorado! Everyday you experience 4 seasons here. I feel like a chemical face, and I spend at least 60$ a month on products that say they'll cure my Winter skin issues, but it's always a waste. :(
I'd really like to try the RoC Multi Correxion Skin Perfecting System!
Thanks a lot for the chance to win!!

My biggest winter skin woe is that my skin is combination. I have an oily T-zone, and it's dry and tight everywhere else.

Even though I use moisturizer in the morning and at night i still feel like if i'm outside for any length of time my skin feels a little tight. I wish i could get it to look fresh and dewy in the dead of winter! A girl can dream though.

Thanks!

My biggest problem is that my temples, chin, and jawline get horribly dry and in addition my cheeks, nose and forehead are very oily! So when I use moisturizing products for the dry areas, the oily area break out with bright red pimples, but when I use toner or acne washes for the oily areas, it makes the dry area peel and skin flakes off! It's a no win situation for me!!

I live in Michigan. The cold winter air makes my skin dry and flaky. It doesn't look very attractive! I have to moisturize a few times a day.

My skin seems to be aging faster in the winter getting all dry, cracking. I do take some omega 3 to "feed" my skin from the inside but it's nice to have something that REALLY works from the outside as well. They say "beauty is skin deep" well..... maybe now it doesn't have to be.

Dry skin is horrible but still suffer from oily skin no matter what time of year. I try just about everything for the dry skin. It cracks and becomes painful. I need help and willing to try anything. Hoping that ROC can help and solve all my skin issues !!! Thanx !!!

Red and discolered skinalong with dryness and burning feeling of skin.

My biggest winter skin problem is actually break outs!! I get so crazy busy during the holidays that I don't always take the time to properly take care of my skin.... And my skin shows me how it feels about my lack of attention by breaking out and DEMANDING that I pay attention.... We go thru this ugly cycle in our relationship every year.... You'd think that I would've learned my lesson by now :)

My biggest skin problem in the winter is dryness and flakiness.

My biggest winter skin woe is as big as my summer woe, in other words, all year round the same issue.

With so many skin care products on the market and so many tried, why can't I find the perfect combination to reach that "perfect skin" all year round?

RoC please come to my rescue!

pigmentation, fine lines on forehead and under eyes, dullness, dry and oily patches on face

Ugh...I'm getting old. My skin gets cold, dull, dry, and just plain resistant to treatments in the wintertime in TN. I need help!!!!! PLEASE let me try this stuff! =]

My biggest winter skin woe is DRY skin. Certain areas will get so dry that it actualy flakes....thank you for the opportunity to try something that (hopefully) will help.

My face looks like rudolph's nose and feels like sandpaper in the winter, so unattractive, itchy and obnoxious!

Same as everyone else...dry skin :(
It messes with my make up so that it looks all gross and clumpy with make up over peeling skin...Yuck!

Skin so dry and cracked that it hurts if you open your mouth too wide!

In the winter I get terrible combination skin. I have mild redness on my cheeks normally, so in the winter they red angry red with extreme roughness and dryness, while my T zone gets extremely flaky.

Dry dry hands!

My skin stays dry all winter long, no matter how much I moisturize and hydrate....

Broken veins and red nose are my bug bears for winter. Lots of concealer needed.

my biggest skin care problem is like most others dry and tight in the winter, with crinkles around my eyes and puffiness it makes it hard to apply any kind of eye shadow, and i long for that smooth dewey look of youth........

Winter, ah the snow, the wind, the cold - my poor skin! I've tried, I have - lotions, potions, gels, creams... Dry, rough, red, discoloration - I NEED HELP!!!

CHAPPED LIPS! I GO THRU SO MUCH LIP BALM IT'S NUTS! I STILL USE MOISTERIZERS WITH SPF

Main problem is chapped, dry lips, and flaky itchy dry skin under the layers of clothing I wear to try and stay warm.

Wind, + cold,+ freezing + below freezing temperatures + Poor and DRY indoor heating =

Dry, chapped skin, redness, blotches, crinkles, all of which makes the puffy eyes, dark circles and wrinkles look even worse!

I am "code blue" and in dire need of help!

Winter bums me out because my skin gets dull and lifeless. I'm looking to find products that bring back dewy, glowing skin.

every winter i get dry spot on my face that itch like crazy if i don't do something about it.
