Dry Skin Product If you suffer from dry skin and a parched, flaky complexion it can lead to other problems such as itching and early as well as excessive wrinkling. Dry skin is caused by genetic factors, as well as in sufficient intake of essential minerals, vitamins and water to nourish and hydrate your skin. It can also be caused by skin conditions like psoriasis and eczema. It is extremely important to take care of dry skin, avoiding contact with harsh chemical products, especially washing powders which have a high level of alkaline and drying ingredients. While choosing a skin cleansing product, opt for non-detergent, neutral-pH products. Alternately you could cleanse your skin with a natural oatmeal scrub with a few drops of essential lavender oil.
While buying skin care products to moisturise your skin, look for products with essential oils that not only balance the production of natural oils but also soothe the irritation caused due the dryness. The pulp of Aloe Vera and Vitamin E oil work miracles for dry skin and can be applied daily to moisturise the skin. Lavender, geranium, rosemary and rose are excellent for mature skins, giving the skin a rejuvenated appearance since they encourage multiplication of skin cells. Frankincense, myrrh and sandalwood are also valued for their benefits for dry skin. Chamomile helps to reduce the inflammation caused due to dryness and peppermint oil helps to increase the production of natural skin oils. If you do not find a cream or lotion with these oils, you could buy a pure non-scented cream and stir in a few drops of the essential oils.
