Dry Patches on Face

in January 2016 Moms
I have started developing these small super dry patches on my face.  I exfoliate daily with Peter Thomas Roth Strawberry Scrub and then I follow it up with the face lotion, but it is not enough.  Has anyone found a good safe product to use on there face for these dry patches that works?

    I use Aquafor at night on dry patches.

    I had the same problem last month and narrowed it down to my face wash/scrub...it was too harsh on my skin even though it's been ok the rest of my pregnancy. I just got some nivea with cocoa butter that seems to be helping :)

    I had to change my products. The thing that has helped me the most is the Burts Bees night cream. I put it on in the morning and at night time. It feels AMAZING and has helped significantly and is super gentle

    I've had these patches for months, and nothing was helping. I have eczema, so I already use very gentle products. I recently got some bio oil (which is just a mix of vitamin a, vitamin e, lavender...some other oils) and it's is working! The patches are getting better! Such a relief.

    I've had a patch on my jaw for a couple years now. The doctor has some fancy name for it I can't remember. The only thing I have found that actually keeps it smooth and not go all flakey is just regular Dove bar soap and a washcloth and moisturizer. Anything else makes it go crazy flakey and spread.

    I'm glad! It's my new "go to" for almost any skin issue. I also use it to "seal in" my eye cream at night. So eye cream first, then a thin layer of Aquafor. I swear it works! Also, chapped lips? Heavenly.

    Sounds like you need a good moisturizer. I swear by moisturize 911 and never grow up creme by perfectly posh.

    I was told by some clinique workers that if you exfoliate more than once or twice a week it can dry out your face. So maybe just try using less of the exfoliate for a little bit.

    @Jwrig104 my scalp was super super dry and face too. Used coconut oil and very happy with the results :)
