Answer 1

you might have a hormonal imbalance talk with your doctor. See a dermatologist if it's not hormonal.. In the mean time use a very pure facial soap (one without perfumes or harsh chemicals) use something like ivory, dove, or pure & gentle or something along these lines. Don't use hot water as it dries skin even faster, & after your bath apply Creamy Vaseline moisturizer while the face is still wet to seal the water in. Next check to see if something you are putting on your face is causing this, you can have a reaction to anything at any time even if you have used it 15 years without any problems before. Drink lots of water or fluids to give some moisture from the inside

Answer 2

Drink at least 8 glasses of water per day (this can also minimize wrinkles) and try the Lancome "Aqua fusion" moisturizer it really helps...I had really dry nose and nothing could get rid of it. When I used to put on foundation it would look all bad around the dry area, but with this moisturizer it makes my skin better.. Apply ones in the morning and at night after you watch your face . The good thing is that it also is a sun block cream.

Hi. You need a good day creme or moisturizer that does not contain alcohol, wax, dyes, chemicals, fragrances, acetone, or mineral oil. These have been known to cause irritation and dryness. Mineral oil is too large to penetrate the pores of your skin so it sits on the top layer like saran wrap and just gets wiped off over time. Products that contain mineral oil will not penetrate and give you little to no benefit. Arbonne formulates their products without mineral oil. I use their NutriMinC Re9 anti-aging system and absolutely love it! Their revolutionary skin care products are botanically based and contain natural collagens like hyaluronic acid to give your skin a natural lift and others to deeply condition and hydrate your skin with the proper elements to give you maximum benefit. They're all pure, safe, beneficial, hypoallergenic, dermatologist tested, formulated without alcohol, wax, dyes, chemicals, fragrances, acetone, or mineral oil. They're unlike any others on the market. They are formulated with nanosphere technology which makes them beneficial for all skin types and adjusts to your skins specific needs by applying more moisture in dry areas and less is oily areas. Their Intelligence moisturizer, NutriMinC Re9 day creme and night creme are awesome!!

Arbonne has samples that you can try to see if the products are beneficial for you. If you find that you love the products, you have the option to purchase products at a 35% discount. Arbonne is so sure that you're going to love the products that they even offer a 45 day money back guarantee. If you're interested in learning more, I'll be happy to help.

If you've tried everything under the sun, you're best bet is to see a dermatologist and get prescription strength. You may be something behind the dry skin. And also check out your makeup. Get foundations with added moisturizers and lay off the powders that can soak up oil.

Try Clinique Moisturizer. Its Yellow in color and unscented. I lived in New Mexico for a long time and everyone knows how summers there are:) Also, when you clean your face,use a cream cleanser thats unscented since scents could make your skin dry faster.

I also have very dry skin. I have eczema and I use lotion prescribed by my doctor. By getting lotion from your doctor you are making sure it is the best lotion for what you have and you know that it is going to work. I use the lotion prescribed by my doctor and on really dry spots like my nose I add a little neosporin or you could use vasaline, but that is greasy. Hope this helps.
