Dry Skin: Why It Happens and How to Treat It?

Do you suffer from dry skin? If you live in a cold, dry climate or have sensitive skin, chances are you do.

So what exactly is dry skin? 

Dry skin is a skin type, not a skin condition. It occurs when your skin doesn’t produce enough sebum, which is the natural oil that helps keep your skin moisturized. Different skin types can be susceptible to dryness, but it’s most common in people with sensitive skin.

If you suffer from dry skin, you're not alone. In fact, dry skin is one of the most common skin problems that people of all ages and skin types experience. While it's often most noticeable and problematic in the winter months, dry skin can be a year-round issue. 

What are the symptoms and causes of dry skin?

Symptoms-

Dry skin can cause a range of symptoms, from mild discomfort to severe itchiness. 

It can feel tight, itchy, and rough. Sometimes, it can even crack and bleed. 

If you have dry skin, you might notice that your skin is flaky or has red patches. You might also notice that your skin is duller than usual. 

You may feel a burning or stinging sensation, particularly when you expose your skin to hot water or cold weather.

Causes-

There are many different causes of dry skin, including environmental factors like lack of humidity, cold weather, UV rays, pollution, and genetics. 

Though it can be caused by many different factors, the most common cause is lack of moisture in the air. If you live in a dry climate, your skin is more likely to become dry. This can be due to low humidity levels, or prolonged exposure to dry conditions.

If you don't drink enough water, your skin can become dehydrated. And if you use harsh soaps or over-wash your skin that can also cause dryness.

Other causes of dry skin include over-washing, and not using a moisturizer. Sometimes, dry skin is caused by some medical conditions too, such as eczema or psoriasis. And, depending on your skin type, you may be more prone to dryness than others. 

But, thankfully, there are also many ways to treat dry skin, ranging from simple lifestyle changes to herbal creams and serums. No matter what the cause, natural treatments, and hydrating products can undoubtedly help hydrate and soothe your dry skin.
