It can be...
...but it can also be a very ambiguous one.
First of all have you started or increased any new Rx's?
Also, you'll want to rule out any topical irritations/allergies. (have you switched beauty/skin care products, or laundry detergent?)
It could also just be from cold/dry winter air.
If there is no rash, or other symptoms...you can probably assume this is a benign issue...
...however, if it gets worse, or continues to really bother you, a consult with your doctor might bring you peace of mind.
Hope you feel better soon!
