Ah! The woes of dry skin! Skin that constantly needs to be watered - to say the least. The skin loses its natural moisturizers as it ages or even as it comes in contact with the wind and the sun, on a day to day basis.

Tip #1.  view

The first and the best solution in this case, would be to hydrate the skin by working on it from the inside out. The magic word is – Water! Try to drink as much water as possible. You’ve heard this one, I guess. And you could add a bit of lime to water or some lemon juice, whenever possible.

 

Tip #2.  view

You could humidify the air around you. Get a humidifier and keep it clean on a regular basis.

 

Tip #3.  view

You could have a bath with lukewarm water but avoid hot, steamy showers as they dry up the skin even more.

 

Tip #4.  view

Instead of soap, use hydrating soap-less cleanser, such as Cetaphil, or you could try unscented body oil. While toweling off, let the moisture from your bath soak into your skin and then immediately apply body oil or a moisturizer. This will help retain the moisture in your skin, and thereby, avoid making the skin appear dry and listless. If your moisturizer contains vitamin A, E and D, it would be wonderful.

 

Tip #5.  view

To avoid letting the sun playing havoc on your skin, find a facial moisturizer with sunscreen. A cream containing lanolin, beeswax and aloe vera gel is the best option here. For better results avoid skin irritants such as alpha hydroxyl acids, scrubs and masks. Instead, use mild virgin coconut oil based lotions or just a mild mask. And definitely, reduce your usage of AHA (Alpha Hydroxy Acids) products. Once this becomes your daily routine, you can say goodbye to dull, dry skin and a big hello to a sparking, healthy one.
