Dry Skin treatment with Oil 

Dry skin, if not treated properly, can become a serious problem. When you suffer from a dry skin problem, you will find that unless you adopt some kind of regular regime, your skin will always suffer. You can help prevent dry skin, especially during the winter months, by using some warm oil to massage your skin. Although you can use any oil, sesame oil is generally considered to be the most effective. Warm a tablespoon of this oil and massage it into your skin. Leave it on for some time so that it can be absorbed by your skin. You can also crush a couple of pieces of camphor into this oil and apply on your skin. Your bath water should never be too hot. Use moderately hot water to bathe in. if you add some bath oil to your bath water, your skin will be moisturized through out the day. You can make a bath oil of your choice by mixing ten drops of sandalwood oil to a tablespoon of castor oil. Mixing pine or rosemary scented oils to the castor oil can also make a sweet smelling bath oil. An application of milk cream and turmeric on your body can also prevent your skin from looking dry and lifeless.
