Skin Rash Rescue for Dry and Sensitive Skin
Very dry skin can be a painful and potentially dangerous skin problem. For this reason it is important to establish a good skin care plan to keep a relatively common occurrence from becoming a full blown crisis. Your first step should be to establish a cleansing routine.
Dry and sensitive skin are very treatable conditions, and the appropriate cleansing routine can help keep them under control. Firstly, you should use a cream cleanser that is both alcohol and fragrance free. By using this type of product your skin will be less likely to dry out from washing and less vulnerable to the scents and fillers that come in most products.
Next, you need to use an alcohol free toner that will help you remove any excess debris, make up, or oil left after cleansing. Follow up with the appropriate moisturizer for your type of skin. You can reapply moisturizer during the day if you think it is necessary.
If begin noticing that your skin is still dry, irritated and has become prone to rashes, you'll need to make some readjustments in your daily routine. as a matter of fact, any effective skin rash rescue plan requires some routine changes.
You should control your caffeine, alcohol, and soda intake. These types of drinks will dehydrate your skin, making it promote to itchiness and possible rashes. Avoiding their consumption will also help improve your overall health.
Also moderate your salt and refined sugar intake. If you have a hard time giving up salt, there are some flavor enhancers that can help you eliminate your salt consumption. These enhancers are pepper, ginger, and lemon juice. If you need to find a substitute sugar you can use natural sweetener such as honey.
During the winter, bundle up to keep the wind from drying out your skin. Stay away from open flames and use a humidifier to counteract the dryness caused by central heating. You can also get added protection by using a sensitive skin balm to help moisturize and soothe extra dry skin.
During summer you should be careful not to get obsessed with spending too much time in the water. The chlorine from the pool and the salt from the ocean are both dehydrating agents. Try to rinse them off your skin as soon as possible.
Another good tip is to exfoliate gently during summer and winter. This habit will help eliminate dead skin cells and prepare the skin to be thoroughly moisturized.
The final, get a new wardrobe. Don't throw all of your clothes away. Instead, replace the itchier clothing for softer versions.
For example, irritating fibers, such as wool, can be replaced with cashmere garments. Polyester and polyblends can be replaced with high quality cotton.
