1. The skin’s dry condition is aggravated by the use of soap, detergents and toners. So a gentle approach which boosts the skin’s moisture levels and makes it soft and supple which is considered to be a must.
2. Creamy mosturizer are preferred for dry skin care. If the moisturizer has a high Sun Protection Factor (SPF) (about 30) then it considered to be the best. An SPF indicates the number of times the skin is saved from the sun.
3. Always depend on water as it could retain the moisture content within the skin. Coffee could really take away the moisture from the skin, thus leaving it dehydrated.
4. Removal of make up is very important for dry skin. First the eye make up has to be removed with a cream based eye make-up remover. This helps to soothe dryness in the delicate eye area. This has to be followed by a rich facial cleanser. Leave the cleanser on for few minutes before wiping it off, to help it remove the make-up and dirt thoroughly. Next the face has to be washed well with a gently face wash. Always remember to use glycerin soap or face wash which will not strip your skin of its natural oils.
5. Fish oil and vitamin E capsules are encouraged for the dry skin care.
