| Dry Skin Treatment Tips and Care | | 2008-07-13 09:10:39 | | Cold weather and low humidity make dry skin even worse in the winter. After taking a quick shower or bath, pat your skin dry and immediately moisturize with a lotion containing dimethicone, cyclomethicone, collagen or Shea butter, which will help seal in the product. Reapply at night.COSMETIC DERMATOLOGIST Avoid hot showers and baths, which can exacerbate the problem. Replace drying soaps with a moisturizing liquid cleanser and gently rub it in with a washcloth or loofah. Try using a humidifier in your bedroom to add moisture to the air, and avoid rough fabrics that can scratch the skin, like wool.NUTRITIONIST Diet is definitely part of the dry- skin equation. You want to stay hydrated, so women should aim for 72 ounces of fluid a day (from water and other beverages or water-based foods); men need 100 ounces.

Getting enough good fats is also important, so make sure to eat olive oil, nuts, seeds and fishALLERGIST If y | | By: Skin Care Treatment Natural Tips | | |

| | Hom Care For Dry Skin | | 2008-01-12 21:24:00 | | It may help to change your bathing habits: Keep baths or showers short. Use warm (not hot) water. Use as little soap as possible. Limit its use to face, armpits, and genitals if you can. Try mild cleansers like Aveeno or Cetaphil or mild soaps like Neutrogena or Dove. Dry your skin thoroughly but gently -- pat, DON'T rub. Take baths or showers less often. Also, increase skin and body moisture: Use bath oils and moisturizers at least daily. Thick, greasy moisturizers work best. Avoid products with alcohol. Apply just after a bath or shower, when your skin is still damp. Use a humidifier if the air is dry. Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Apply cool compresses to itchy areas, and try over-the-counter cortisone creams or lotions if your skin is inflamed. If this is not enough, talk to your doctor about possible prescription lotions. | | By: HealthyBodySoul | | |
