Signs of extreme drying include itchy, flaking skin that is rough to the touch, and uneven in appearance. This is skin that needs to be seriously cared for. Some tips to getting the best results out of your moisturizing skincare routine include:

* Apply moisturizer after bathing, while skin is still damp in order to slow down the rate at which the surface dries.

* Use heaviest products at night for maximum restorative care, while avoiding a greasy appearance during the day.

* Incorporate a sunscreen into your daily skincare, but continue taking care to avoid direct sun exposure, especially during peak hours (10am to 4pm).

* Avoid extreme temperatures and conditions indoors and out, as these cause stress on your dried skin.

* Bundle up, cover up, or otherwise protect yourself from sun and wind outdoors, taking extra special care in drying summer and winter weather.

* Bathe using cool to moderate temperature water only.

* Add moisture to your indoor environment with humidifiers, plants or even a soothing tabletop fountain.

Soap dries skin, so products must be chosen carefully to avoid any unwanted materials that will cause additional irritation. A milder cleanser used in combination with additional moisturizing creams will help ease your skin's cares and keep you looking and feeling your best.

Dry skin care is a matter of protecting your skin from moisture loss, and finding ways to replenish and hydrate your thirsty skin cells. A combination of finding the right skincare product, and adapting your lifestyle is required in order to take the best possible care of this sensitive skin type that is prone to drying, cracking, and flaking.

Caring for dry skin

1. When it’s bad, spending less time in the bath seems to help. I’ll take quickie baths or showers (5 to 10 minutes), using lukewarm water instead of hot. I’ll also try to limit myself to just one shower or bath per day until it clears up and will only use soap where I really need it. I may also add a few teaspoons of olive oil or lavender-scented oils to the bath.
2. Apply moisturizer while the skin’s still damp, like right after towel drying (patting with the towel instead of rubbing, which can whisk away essential oils) from a shower or washing hands. It may take trial and error to find moisturizers that work well for you.

Most moisturizers contain barrier ingredients to trap water on the skin and binder ingredients to bring moisture up from the inner layer of skin to the top. Ingredients like glycerin, alpha hydroxy acids, urea and lactic acids (binders), combined with petrolatum, lanolin or silicone derivatives (barriers) work well for me.
3. Using heavier creams or ointments in winter and lighter lotions in the spring, summer and fall.
4. You’ve heard these a zillion times before, but drinking water sure seems to help. I know that when I drink the recommended eight glasses of water a day, eat a diet rich in fruits and vegetables and limit my time in the sun, my skin thanks me for it.
5. Just like limiting time in the shower, when my skin’s drier than usual, I’ll wash my face no more than twice a day, using a gentle cleanser formulated for dry skin.
6. Consider getting a humidifier at home, or ask the boss to swing for one at work. Indoor heaters suck the moisture from everything around them, including skin. A humidifier pumps moisture back into the air, quenching the heater’s thirst! Smile

Good moisturizer should be used for this type of skin and gently massage the skin. Massaging, toning and moisturizing with small quantities of oil and moisturizers should be done as a routine for preservation of the skin. The moisturizer increases the water content of the outer layer of the skin giving it a soft feel. Cream is much better than a lotion as it has more oil than water. You should be use a good nourishing cream at night before sleeping. You should avoid frequent washing of face as it not only removes the germs but also the natural oil with it, which protects the skin and also its elasticity. The cucumber juice which is a good toner for dry skin helps in moisturizing the pores. You should have a diet rich in vitamin A, B, C and D is good for dry skin.

Mix honey, milk and any vegetable oil. Apply this mask for 10 minutes and wash off with cold water. This mixture is a good moisturizer for dry skin.
