Exfoliate! Exfoliate! Exfoliate! And use a quality moisturizer. When my facial skin gets a little flaky, I use dandruff shampoo.
If you use make-up, try Bare Escentuals/Bare Minerals. They're all natural 100% micronized minerals in the foundation and are good for your skin, you can even sleep in it! I love it and I've tried several varieties of Mineral Make-up this is the BEST.

Don't use body soap to wash your face invest in a facial cleanser, I find that Aveeno facial cleansing pads have worked for me, it is made from soy extracts. Also you sound like you need more water in your diet, and try to stay away from greasy foods, eat a healthier more balanced meal. Also some prescription medication can change your body chemicals causing dry skin, if you are taking them so speak to your doctor about side effects.

First of all, never mix brands on your face. That's the number one reason why people go to the dermatologist. Cocoa butter will probably get into your pores. You don't want pimples.
Since you want all - natural, you can use olive oil. If you want a scrub, add sugar to olive oil and rub it on GENTLY. My grandma has used olive oil on her face for years with wonderful results.

oatmeal
Mix some quick oats from your cupboard (not the flavoured kind) with some warm water or warm milk. Apply it to your face and gently massage it in, then rinse it off with warm water.
This will exfoliate your skin gently and provide some moisture as well.
Use a gentle cleanser-like cetaphil, not a soapy one. Here's a clue; if it gets foamy like soap does, don't use it.
Also, find a nice moisturizer for your face.

You need to use Gingseng products... This is new. They are elaborated with Chinese Herbals.Gingseng is better than Aloe Vera, it´s specially formulated for dry skin. I know this product only exists in a company that is in your country...
Email me if you want more info.

Aloe Vera gel. I guess you could squeeze the heck out of a plant (since you want natural), but it's easier to buy it.

normal lotion helps for any thing on the face... don't get the expensive stuff it doesn't help any more then other lotions... apply 2 or 3 times a day or when it is irritating you... Are you allergic to something like your makeup or something in your bath soap????? that's what happened to my little sis. and bro.
