your dry skin will respond well to an all natural skin care moisturizer for it is safe and effective in keeping the skin moist all day.

try to avoid long baths for that can rob moisture out of your skin. ask your dermatologist about good skin care treatments.

healthy habits can also help improve the look and how your skin feels from inside and out. try to refrain from smoking and alcohol for they do not only cause the skin to become dry but also they can promote premature skin aging.

Try washing once in a while

You have to keep putting any kind of mosturizer for 6 months - you can also try using scrubs and soaps for dry skin.

i had really dry skin as a kid and ezcema.i found that e45 worled well or calomine lotion but eventually had to go to the doctors for a prescription which cleared it up

my best friend suffered with incredibly dry skin and she satrted to use a skin care range which doesnt have any chemicals in it, Dr Hauschka. Since she has used that her skin has cleared up. Its a little bit more expensive than your usual skin care range but I think its definatley worth paying it.

drink a lot of water, exercise so you can sweat and put a lot of lotion.

Extremely dry skin even peeling skin is not generally caused by a medical condition. However treat with creams if does not work try olive oil mixed with a base cream like sorbolene. And creams need to be applied at least twice a day. Weather can play havoc with skin as well as diet and allergies. Most doctors will diagnose you with ezcema or dematistis (skin conditions).

I also suffer with dry skin and Boots have come up with a new range of products that are 97% natural (they are free from Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Parabens and Petrochemicals). The product is called naked - I have been using it for a week and noticed quite a difference in my skin not as dry and itchy. They have ranges from Shampoo, Conditioner, Bath Products, Body Wash, and moisturiser. Watch what laundry detergent you are using and avoid soaps and anything that contains the above listed as these are what dry your skin out - Hope this helps - Good Luck

Dry skin types have to be extremely careful to protect their skin. Yogurt-honey combination helps dry skin. Make an egg pack with a yolk, a teaspoon of honey, a tablespoon of milk powder. This is beneficial to dry skin types. There are many helpful tips to cure dry skin at http://useinfo-dryskin.blogspot.com/

think you may have ezcema. Dry, itchy skin.
