Soothing Dry, Itchy Skin

Soothing Dry, Itchy Skin

Dry, itchy skin often occurs this time of year due to cold weather and other environmental conditions, such as low humidity or even bathing in hot water.   It can be aggravated by eczema and other forms of dermatitis, sending sufferers scrambling for relief.

Common causes of dry, itchy skin

Unfortunately, time is a factor in your skin care.  Dry skin becomes more common as you age, so it is important to incorporate a skin care regimen before wrinkles begin.  Another common cause of dry, itchy skin is the ingredients found in some soaps and cleansers.  Avoid using products that can dry your skin further or irritate certain skin conditions.  Switch to hypoallergenic and unscented soaps and moisturizers.  Finally, consider your wardrobe.  Choosing loose, light weight fabrics can reduce sweating and irritation from friction.
