If this is a lot worse than your usual dry skin, I would definitely avoid any exfoliants or scrub stuff. Some of the other answers on this question worried me, so I thought I would respond.
Does it look infected? If this is WAY worse than usual, you could possibly have an infection. Is it painful? Is it extremely red?
I would use antibiotic ointment and not wash your face for a few days. If it gets worse, see a doctor.

I would agree with alot of what the others said...If you have insurance go to a dermatologist. But there are some things that may help..face wash for sensitive skin is a must. A facial scrub will help...Believe it or not Baking powder will help it says you can use it for your face right on the box.!!!! Also once a week take milk in a bowl with ice saturate a towel in it leave it on your face for 10-15 rinse off(do this at night) follow up with moisturizer. Yes moisturize moisturize....3x a day. Drink alot of water helps....Avoid fried food eat more fruits and veggies..

Dry skin is very common, especially when the weather gets colder. Apply moisturizer every day. Remove makeup before going to bed at night. Avoid the use of harsh soaps.

My skin does this in cold weather too. Lots of lotion! Dont use make up that dries out your skin either, if you use regular foundation or powder, switch to a moisture-rich one or a tinted moisturizer. Make sure you arent using a harsh facial cleanser that will strip your face of the moisture it needs.

You may need to invest in a good quality moisturizer.
May I suggest:
Clinquie "Dramatically Different Moisturizing lotion" (that is it's name). I use it and it rocks.. It sounds like you have a very dry complexion.. ask to have the lotion that is used for very dry skin.

A good moisturiser will help morning and night also make sure you are drinking enough water believe it or not the skin actually gets dehydrated.

same thing happens to me sometimes. i usually just put a teeny bit of lotion right on the spot that usually gets dry every night before i go to bed. then when i wake up in the morning i put lotion on it too, and eventually it goes away.

You need to exfoliate to remove all that dead skin (you may even try a sugar scrub) then make sure to put lots of moisturizer on after.

Olive oil is a really good moisturizer.
Makes my face really smooth. I ♥ it.
