Dry Chapped Skin Remedies
Dry chapped skin is a very common ailment, especially is you live in a cold climate. Even otherwise, if you are facing the problem of dry and chapped skin, you can take care of it by simple means. The first thing to do is to add some element of grease and fat to your diet. Most of the time, skin becomes dry and chapped due to a lack of fat in the diet. This does not mean to suggest that you must start consuming abnormal amounts of greasy and fatty food everyday. It just means that if you are on a diet that excludes these substances form your meals, you should add them to some extent. This will begin to solve the problem from within, to begin with.
You can also apply a paste made of clarified butter and turmeric powder to the specifically chapped areas. This will help to heal and sanitize your skin from the surface, while the clarified butter will go deep within and provide the much needed moisture for your skin to stop getting chapped. This remedy will have to be followed for at least a week before it starts showing results however. Keep in mind that you should never go to bed without moisturizing your skin with a rich moisturizer that can work on your skin all night.
