Dry skin types have to be extremely careful to protect their skin.Yogurt-honey combination helps dry skin. Make an egg pack with a yolk, a teaspoon of honey, a tablespoon of milk powder.

Sorry to hear that, DeeJay. After years of working in aged care and dealing with old skins / very dry skins, I'd recommend this regime - In the shower, never use anything soapy. That dries the skin even more. At the pharmacy, buy a tub of Aqueous Cream - a very basic cream which will be cheap. Put a blob of it on a wash cloth and use that for washing. It is lovely stuff and your skin will feel really clean and silky. After the shower, massage Sorbeline Cream all over the dry areas. Sorbeline is another really basic cream - it is the basic ingredient in most moisturising creams. If you use it every day, I'm sure you'll have good results. Best wishes !

I have been using this great facial moisturizer called Dermagenics. It's gentle enough for the skin around the eyes, yet also good for the face and neck. What's so great about is that you don't have to buy separate products, it's a complete skin care system in one! It contians none of the potentially harmful ingredients found in most other skin care products, such as alpha hydroxys and glycolic acid. These ingredients can actually make your skin more susceptible to skin damage. I recommend this to you because I have been using it daily and the results are great. Find it at http://www.dermagenics.biz

Answer 7

Glow derma is the best medicine for dry skin you can use it at night thrice a week. My doctor told me to apply on my dry face.

Answer 8

Vaseline.. Really it works. If you make a thick layer of vaseline on the dry skin, for instance, if you have dry feet, cover your feet with Vaseline and wear socks to bed. You can do the same with hands and gloves. It works wonders.

Answer 10

I have Eczema and I have tried about every thing on the market. The best lotion that doesn't make you itch is Curel. Vaseline doesn't work for me, it holds in the heat and makes me more itchy.
