The weather in the north is dry, what should I do if my skin is dry?

When the weather is dry, the moisture content in the air is low, and the human body is easy to lose water. Dry skin happens from time to time. Today, I will introduce how to do dry skin.

Skin moisturizing

In winter, the whole body skin begins to dry, and applying moisturizing cream can effectively improve the problem of dry skin. After each bath, dry the water, and then apply moisturizing cream on all parts of the body, especially on the calves, elbows, knees and other places that are easy to dry, which can alleviate the dryness of the skin. Moisturizer will contain moisturizing ingredients such as oil, which is very effective in moisturizing the skin and has a good moisturizing effect.

Facial skin should also be well maintained, and facial skin care products should be moisturized when the weather is dry. It is recommended to use a cream for better moisturizing effect, and it is best to wear a mask when going out to reduce skin moisture loss.

Use an air humidifier

The air is dry, with little moisture and low humidity. Under this humidity, the human body easily loses moisture, resulting in dry skin. It is suggested that an air humidifier can be placed in the center of the room to effectively improve the air humidity, so that when the human body is suitable for its own environmental humidity, the loss of skin moisture will be reduced and the skin dryness will be improved.

Drink plenty of water

When the weather is dry, the human body loses water quickly. Drinking water at this time is an important way to replenish skin moisture. Drink 8 glasses of water a day, or you can drink more as needed. Drinking plenty of water can accelerate the metabolism of the body, promote the regeneration of skin cells and tissues, and improve dry and peeling skin.

Reduce travel

When the weather is dry, reduce the frequency of going out. Going out is easily affected by wind and dust, which will cause respiratory discomfort and accelerate the loss of skin moisture. In addition, don't do too strenuous exercise, which will lead to increased sweating and accelerated skin water metabolism. Exercise should make your body sweat slightly.
