Treat Dry Skin With Gentleness

It hardly seems to need reiterating, but you should try to treat dry skin with gentleness. If you want your dry skin to heal, you have to remember that being gentle with it will get the best results. Over-doing washing or putting on thick layers of petroleum-based products can do more harm than good. Be careful of small actions like what clothing you wear and if you are allowing your skin to breath. Try to reduce the irritation your skin might be feeling by either avoiding harsh environments or changing them to promote more humidity. It's important for your skin to be in optimal health because it is key to releasing toxins in your body and helping the whole body to remain healthy.

Bath time is one time you can be particularly gentle with your skin. Treat dry skin to short baths, if you have to bathe. Don't bathe too often or you can irritate the skin further. Long, hot baths can strip the oils from your skin, so make sure they are 20 minutes or less and add some natural bath oils to the water to help your bath be moisturizing as well as cleansing. Take a look at the cleanser or bar soap you are using to make sure it is gentle too. Natural olive oil based soap is great and will add moisture while it cleanses. Soapless cleansers like the Aveeno cleansing bar are optimal.

When you get out of the bath, don't briskly towel dry. This is much too harsh for someone with very dry skin all over the body. Instead treat dry skin gently by patting yourself dry in the affected areas. This will keep many of the oils on your skin while not irritating cracked, scaly skin either. Add moisturizer to the affected areas once you are out of the bath.

Some synthetic materials can keep the skin from breathing. Your towels and your clothing should be made of cotton if you are having trouble with dry skin. Definitely avoid wool clothing, as it can be highly irritating. When you go out, make sure the affected area is not exposed to really hot or cold air. While at home, keep the humidity level high to help keep your skin hydrated.

Keep a good moisturizer around and use it twice daily. Skin So Silky can treat dry skin with the application of only a few drops twice daily. It can even be used in cases where you might have acne dry skin problems. It is a combination of oils, including lemon oil, which is helpful for acne sufferers. Be sure to have some on hand when you need it.
