Because it dries out.
dryness there is less moisture in cold air.
During the winter the air is so cold it dries due to water/moisture being taken out because it is so cold. The air takes the moisture from your skin and your skin dries out. Then it gets tight giving you the itchy feeling. You scratch and the skin gets flaky and then more itchy.the cycle is great.
it loses the oil .
We have to use heat, which in turn makes our humidity level in our homes go down which makes our skin dry. Try a Humidifier and a moisturizer and don't take too hot a shower
Because it gets dried out from both the cold and from houses and buildings keeping it warm with forced air heating which dries out the air.
Use lotion every day.
Dry ,cold inside and out change of enviroment
Less moisture/ humidity in the air? ~:)
its dry use baby oil as soon as you get out of the shower then dry off
The lack of moisture in the air in the colder months will cause dry, cracked, itchy skin. A good body lotion works well
winter is the season for dry skin and chapped lips because lower air temperatures and low humidity result in drier air. The dryness is made worse by forced, hot-air heating in homes and offices. The dry air causes skin to lose more moisture and become itchy.
As we age, winter dryness becomes worse because the natural oil layer in our skin (which protects it from losing moisture) is depleted. Frequent baths or showers further removes this protective oil layer, and the cycle of winter-dry skin continues.
possibly due to low humidity levels.your problem may be releived by using "gold bond medicated lotion" my GF uses it and it smells nice menthol..and really cools and moisterizes the itchy areas

Because the air is dry. Try putting on an greasy lotion lik keri lotion. or try some aveeno lotion it helps.
the reason your skin gets itchy during the winter is because your skin gets dry. during the winter i get itchy also because i don't wear gloves. if you don't wear gloves that will cause some more dryness. so i would say wear lotion daily and if it is cold wear gloves.
