Dry Skin? Can you help?

Question

Can anyone help me with my skin. Since i have gave birth to my three month old daughter my face is really dry!? Very weird but can anyone help? I have tried lotions but it just looks flaky on my forhead.

Answer 1

Your a new mom? Congrats!
I have several recommendations:
1. Most importantly drink a LOT of water! Skin is best moisturized from the inside out. If you are nursing, a lot of your fluid is going to produce breast milk and not getting to your skin! You will also produce more milk if you are staying well hydrated. I know from experience it's sometimes hard to pour yourself a drink 8 times a day...so send hubby to the store to buy you one of those GIANT insulated mugs with a handle on it. Fill it up in the morning and drink drink drink!
2. NEVER EVER use bar soap on your face! Very drying.
3. I could send you a sample of Arbonne's "Intelligence" skin care line. It's absolutely wonderful. My daughter uses it, I do, and my mom does too!
Just let me know and I'll get it in the mail to you along with ordering info.

Answer 3

The TimeWise® Microdermabrasion Set was developed
for anyone with fine lines and visible pores or dry, flaky skin who wants to see healthier, younger-looking skin immediately.

Step 1: Refine is an advanced exfoliator
that immediately energizes the skin to reveal a more radiant, healthy-looking surface. This creamy white lotion with exfoliating crystals:
• feeds and nourishes the skin from below through increased microcirculation. This brings oxygen to the top of the skin to stimulate circulation creating a healthy, more radiant glow.
• reduces the appearance of pores by effectively removing the dead skin cells that naturally form inside and around the outer edge of every pore.

Step 2: Replenish is immediately absorbed into the skin to instantly smooth and soften. This lightweight, opalescent lavender serum:
• feeds and nourishes the skin from above with an exclusive Mary Kay® triple tea complex.
• aids the rejuvenation process and protects against environmental pollutants.
• soothes the skin and helps to bring it back in balance.
• prepares the skin for the next step in skin care.

HOW IS IT DIFFERENT FROM OTHER MICRODERMABRASION PRODUCTS ON THE MARKET?
Many brands offer only one step. Others merely offer a moisturizer as the second step. Step 2: Replenish really separates Mary Kay’s microdermabrasion set from
the competition. It is a rich serum, containing vitamins, antioxidants and anti-irritants that nourishes the soft, smooth skin revealed by Step 1: Refine.

Answer 4

First use an exfoliating cleanser. St. Ives apricot is cheap, smells and works great. Then at night, after cleaning your face, use some good ole' fashioned NIVEA. It comes in a dark blue jar and you can buy a big jar of creme or a little one for a few bucks pretty much anywhere. It's thick, and they haven't changed it in like 30 years because IT WORKS. A week of that, and your face will be back to normal. It smells good, and doesn't clog pores. Works well on hands and feet too.

Answer 5

Have you tried any oil on your face? Take a little jojoba, grape seed or sweet almond oil, add a few drops of water, and massage gently onto face. This helps a lot. You can do this whenever your face feels dry. Also take care of your diet. Your diet should be rich in good fats. Start taking omega 3 fatty acid supplement if you are not taking fish on a regular basis.

Answer 6

Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated and use a face pack of ripe bananas and honey. You can find more cheap, effective and natural home remedies for dry skin at http://www.wellnesstalk.org/dryskin.html
