Summer Skin, winter skin...the skin you are in!
Not just for Summer time, sunblock is year round!
Sunblock should be worn year 'round if you want the best anti-aging skin care available...UVA and UVB rays from the sun are responsible for approximately 85% - 90% of the signs of skin aging (wrinkles, age spots, uneven pigmentation, etc.). And don't assume just because you already have lines and wrinkles it is too late to care...a good moisturizer with SPF will prevent further damage which you are actually more prone to with older, damaged skin.
The best facial lotion for daytime is a lotion that is also an SPF 30 sunscreen, it should not feel sticky, look shiny, or make your makeup look bad! I carry a few types of sunscreen that are an excellent value. I make recommendations based on your needs-skin type, make up type and usage, and other factors. The best sunscreens will have anti-oxidants and hydrators included in their formulas...rather the best day time moisturizer will have a good quality broad spectrum SPF 30!
For this reason, most of my clients prefer the moisturizers from "Image" , PCA or dermalogica. There are a variety to choose from for skin types, and they have antioxidants, hydrators, and a heavenly scent (botanical not chemical scent). I also carry PCA (fragrance free), and dermalogica (antioxidants, hydrators, a pleasant scent).

Dr. Jennifer Linder discusses summer skin repair
I carry several products able hydrate your winter and year-round skin! Let's find the exact product for your skin.
A facial can do wonders of course. But make sure to take home products to carry on that hydration you received during your winter visit.
I will make recommendations based on your skin type, skin needs, and see what you are currently using to determine whether it is sufficient...if you have dehydrated/dry skin, then what you are doing isn't working properly.
