very dry skin?

Question

i have very very very very dry skin what do i do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

Consider taking Biotin and zinc. Slathering on creams is an outward fix for a short time. You might, also, want to check with your dermatologist about vitamin A. Don't just start taking Vitamin A without consulting a doctor-it can be toxic. A very low dose will sometimes ease the dryness. Eucerin cream helps a lot

Answer 2

I have the same problem & do a few things to help alleviate it.

In the shower I use Aveeno body wash or a Cetaphyl bar. Both are very moisturizing & non-soap based.
As soon as I get out of the shower I rub baby oil into my skin to lock in moisture & then dry off. After that I moisturize with Eucerine lotion.

I also take flaxseed oil daily & drink plenty of water.

Answer 3

Mash 1 tablespoon of ripe banana and add to it 1 tablespoon honey. Apply this mask on the affected area and leave it to dry. Then wash it off with cold water. This mask acts as a moisturizer .You can find more cheap, effective and natural home remedies for dry skin at the link below.

Answer 4

Aveeno makes an oatmeal bath that is wonderful! Also, look for any body lotions for severely dry skin--look on the back where it lists the ingredients and look for one that doesn't list water as the first ingredient.

Try a creamy petroleum jelly lotion (available at Walmart at about $2 per tube.) This really helps my five year old daughter who is advising me at this very moment.
