Moisture -

Moisturization plays a vital role in the treatment of dry skin. Lack of moisture in the skin is the root cause of dry skin. Dry skin needs more moisture than any other skin. That’s why always use thick moisturizer which gives you double hydration. Choose moisturizer that is enriched in vitamins and provides you double hydration. You can choose a moisturizer according to your choice or you can use coconut oil, almond oil, argan oil, or petroleum jelly. Hydrate your skin twice a day.

Face oil -

Face oil has now become a necessary product that should be included in every skincare. Face oil is known for its hydration and massaging purpose. Massaging your skin with face oil at least twice a week provides you so much moisture and glowing skin. Plus it makes our skin firm and tight. It also reduces facial wrinkles. Dry-skin people can use it as make-up primer too. Face oil is an all-rounder for dry skin. So include face oil in skincare now. You can choose any brand’s face oil but make sure it doesn’t contain any mineral oil and harsh chemical. Massage gently for the best result.

Sleeping mask -

Now, this is a very beneficial step. A sleeping mask is a product that repairs your skin while sleeping. We often heard that our bodies restore energy and repairs body cells while we are in sleep. That how this product work. This product helps your skin by keeping it moisturize all night and provides essential nutrients. Plus sleeping mask makes skin glowy. You can apply any sleeping mask but make sure it is made up of good ingredients. If you do not want to use a sleeping mask, you can apply a thick layer of your regular moisturizer. Now let me tell you a quick sleeping mask remedy. Add 2 tablespoons of almond oil in 1 tablespoon of aloe vera gel. Mix it well and apply. Leave it overnight. You will feel your skin hydrated and glowy. Do this daily.

Skincare -

Good skincare can achieve good skin. So it is necessary to follow genuine skincare. Every skin has a different skincare routine. But these are some common mistakes that we all make in our skincare routine.

# Using hot water -Do not wash your face with hot water as it will leave your skin super dry. It causes irritation. Hot water leaves your pores open so they get clogged with pollutant particles. Instead of that, use cold water. Coldwater is gentle for your skin and closes your pores. Plus makes your skin soft and subtle.

#Using a harsh face wash -Harsh chemical face wash can damage your skin deeply and make it dry. So always use a gentle face wash.

#Rubbing the skin -Rubbing your skin even once a day can be harsh on your skin. So whenever you apply any product on your skin, massage it gently rather than rubbing.

#Not wearing sunscreen -I think it’s a very big mistake. Not wearing sunscreen let sun rays damage your skin deeply. It causes redness, sunburn, irritation, and skin cancer. So wear sunscreen every single day as it will protect your skin.

Oatmeal -

This is a super ingredient for dry skin. Oatmeal will do wonders for your skin and will treat your skin issues. Oatmeal contains magnesium, iron, pantothenic acid, vitamin B6 and many nourishing nutrients. You can use oatmeal in many ways. So let’s see how to use it. You can make oatmeal and apply it to your skin as a face mask or use it as a face cleanser. You can also use it as a body wash. Add some oatmeal granule to oat milk and use it as an exfoliator. You can consume oats so it will benefit you internally resulting in the softness of the skin.

So this is all about. I hope you like it. Thanks for reading
