I wanted to take a few minutes to discuss how to prevent dry skin and if you currently suffering from dry skin, how to help get rid of it. Dry skin is known as “xerosis” in technical medical terminology. As we get older, we’re at increased risk of developing dry skin. Although dry skin itself isn’t going to kill you, the symptoms can be obnoxious and can potentially lead to complications if you ignore it. Dry skin can worsen fine lines and make wrinkles more noticeable. In more extreme examples, it can itch, flake, crack and even bleed

Dry skin can be very difficult to control. It affects people with acne, eczema, atopic dermatitis, sensitive skin, babies, itchy or cracked skin, psoriasis, and rosacea. It is often a chronic problem. Certain moisturizers and cleansers, non-irritating clothes, detergents, can help. So can retinoids, olive oil, jojoba oil, shea butter, lanolin, mineral oil, petrolatum, lip balm, gloves and fragrance free products.
