USE A NOURISHING BODY WASH
Many body washes work to dry the
skin. To prevent this, use body washes
with plenty of vitamins and moisturizers.
The vitamins help regenerate your skin,
and the moisturizers will help your skin
retain its healthy moisture balance.
Harsh soaps are horrible to use on dry
skin. Many soaps are drying, so go for a
nourishing body wash to use on your body.
Bubble bath is also very harsh on dry skin.
A good alternative is using bath oil or
oatmeal body wash that will soothe any dry,
itchy skin. Make it a habit of moisturizing
as soon as you have bathed and dried off.

USE SKIN CARE
PRODUCTS REGULARLY
When using skin care products, it’s vital
that you are using them on a consistent
basis. Frequent use will give your favorite
skin care products time to achieve the
desired effect. If you’re someone that
has trouble remembering to do certain
things, you may find it beneficial to
keep your products where you’re able
to notice them. For example, on your
bedside table.

REMEMBER YOUR
HANDS AND FEET
Many people tend to concentrate on
their face, arms, and legs, and forget
their feet and hands. To keep your feet
from being dry, apply a lot of moisturizer
to them and throw on some cotton socks
before bedtime. For hands, use a heavy
duty moisturizer and wear cotton gloves
or socks for approximately two hours.
You will begin to notice a difference in
your skin immediately.
