Dry skin are skin types that lack moisture. They usually need products that will hydrate your skin and not over dry or damage one’s skin. There are many causes that one does not know about dry skin, but it does not mean the person is not healthy. Some of these causes can be a dry environment, build up of dead skin cells, or washing the face with too many face products frequently. According to a excerpt by Harvard Health, it states that there are multiple ways that we can do to minimize flaking or drying up on the skin. Among those are 9 steps that we can incorporate into our daily lives. Although you do not necesssarily have to follow all of these steps, these definitely increases your skin as a whole.
The following steps are : using a humidifier in one’s room, limit or reduce shower time to 5-10 minutes, reduce usage of soap, avoid or stay away from frequent use of bath sponges and scrub brushes, rub small amounts of creams instead of massive amounts, avoid scratching or rubbing of the skin too much, use fragrance free scents and laundry detergents, and lastly wear comfortable fabrics. All of these steps play a large role in damaging your skin. By practicing these, your skin will heal over time.
