Constantly moisurize it. Loads of cream on in the morning before applying your makeup - several layers and let it absorb. Same again before you go to bed and leave it on overnight once you've taken any makeup off. Get something perfume free or your skin will sting. Shea butter products are excellent.



Get some moisturizer that has no chemicals or anything. The simple range is really good.
What you might find is that when I had bad acne, moisturizer used to make my skin really oily and make me get blackheads. So i recommend "n-spa body cream" from the indulge range. That has reacted really well with my skin. Apply a moisturizer twice a day, morning and night.

TIP:
Before applying moisturizer, splash your face with water and pat with a towel. But don't completely dry your face. Then add you moisturizer on the places needed. This means the moisturizer absorbs the water which means it adds even more moister to you face. And after a day you should see a difference. :) good luck xxx hope I helped xxx

Personal experiences



I get this too! I suffered from bad-ish Acne and it made my skin very dry, as well as it being the winter.
Here's some stuff I learned:

Home Remedy-- Honey Facial Scrub -- Get a little plastic pot (which has a lid) and put 3 teaspoons of Extra Virgin OliveOil in the pot.(people think that oil will make acne worse, but truth is, the molecules in the oil are too big to enter the pores, which means no extra spots!) Put 2 Teaspoons of Honey (preferably organic if not, anything else is fine) into the pot. Pour some Caster Sugar into the pot, about 1 and a half teaspoons is enough. Then Mix.
When washing your face with this, don't scrub to hard as it will cause more spots, but rub gently then leave on your face for about a minute before washing it off.

Facial Masks-- Hydrating Facial Mask -- Mix Yoghurt, Honey, Oats and Milk in a bowl, (small amounts of each work best) you'll know when its ready because it will become sticky. Test it on a small area on your hand or somewhere, you shouldn't be allergic to these ingredients but just incase, if it gets sore or itchy whilst testing it, wash it off and don't apply anywhere else! If your not allergic, then apply onto your face and leave for about 10 minutes or until it feels dry. This gets messy but it works!

Try these out, but there's nothing wrong with covering the dry patch in thick face cream anyways.
Hope this helped, Good Luck!

I heard that Toad Oil extract can help dry skin and it can exfoliate pores. To get toad oil extract, you can either buy it from your local health store or you can get a fresh toad from the creek and squeeze it. The oils will then leak from its rectum, so be sure to catch it with your hand.

Google, Wikipedia.



you can buy ponds skin cream at any drugstore.. i have really dry skin too and it cures it over night!



Cocoa Butter is the best thing in the world.
