Get rid of excema on my face?

How do I get rid of this dry skin on my face?

  • Ok so I use proactiv and I was sick last week with a fever and I didn't wash my face for a couple of days. My skin was really smooth and clean but now when I go to wash my face or when I get out of the shower my face is all dry! It feels really rough and flakey. It's worse when I put makeup on but I hate going out having my face feel like this. You would think after washing my face regularly again my face would go back to normal even with the moisturizer but it's still dry once I'm done. And since I use proactiv I really can't stop using it every day but I don't know what else to do! The last time I had dry skin like this I had to stop using my face wash for a while...should I do the same and have to tough it out? I need some help!!!

  • Answer:

    Use some good moisturiser morning and night to hydrate your skin more. Even drink more water. Keeping your skin hydrated and fresh gets rid of dry skin

I have that problem every once and a while. I use this cream stuff called skin treatment body lotion intense dry skin relief. You can get it at CVS. It smells a little weired when you first put it on but when it dries it stops.

Yeah don't use face wash that is to acidic it will dry out your face just use regular soap for a week or two and only wash your face 1 to 2 times a day also don't clean your face with rubbing alcohol.
