DRY SKIN - FACIAL PEELING?

Has anyone else been experiencing extremely dry skin?  Particularly on the face?  The area around my mouth and nose has been peeling incessantly and I have tried moisturizers, etc., to no avail.  The peeling happens every day.  I assume this is a sign that I need to drink more water and am probably somewhat dehydrated, but was just curious if others out there might be having similar issues.  Smile

    I have this happen when the weather gets really cold.  I pretty much slather on Aquaphor until the chapped area clears up, then use a cetaphil-type moisturizer afterward.

    I have that and for me it isn't dry skin, it's sebacious dematitis (basically dandruff) and the derm prescribed desonide and that makes it go away.

    Colton had some stuff like this.  Try Aquofore.  Also Aveda has a moisture mask that rocks the house.  It is clear in a clear stand up tube.

    I have had some weird peeling since being pregnant.  In addition to moisturizers, I add a like baking soda to my cetaphil cleanser to try and exfoliate it gently.  So I don't end up walking around with a layer hanging off.

    I know I'm kind of late on this.... sorry!! 

     

    BUT try a yogurt/olive oil/honey mask. I know it sounds weird but it has helped me a lot and I have those same dry patches. The yogurt and olive oil are hardcore moisturizers and the honey is a fantastic antiseptic.

    Mix: 

    1 tbl each - yogurt, olive oil, honey 

    Slather it on the face and let it sit for about 15-20 min. Then wipe off with a warm towel and moisturize. I do this as night at it works wonders. :)
