DRY SKIN

DRY SKIN

                Does your skin feel parched flaky, stretched and totally dehydrated, especially after every run-in with the soap, cleanser, and face wash? Are you unable to go out minus a generous layer of moisturizer? Does the problem aggravate in winters?

                If the answers to the above are in the affirmative, you have what is called dry skin.

              Dry skin is that kind of skin that looks parched and dehydrated, with a tendency to flake. This is often due to a lack of activity of the sebaceous glands which are the oil-producing glands of your skin. This gives it a dry appearance.

              This kind of skin is prone to the effects of ageing very fast; wrinkles, laugh lines and crow's feet are inevitable set-ins for this type of skin. So persons with this kind of skin need to really have a very well-planned, skin-care regime that is overloaded with moisturizing elements and water.

             On the plus side, you will probably never have to battle pimples and acne and other oil-clogged disasters! It's more fine-pored, tending towards flawlessness, especially in the initial years.
