Why is my skin so dry even when I moisturize?

Before I begin with the best natural skin care tips for dry skin let’s understand why do we even have dry skin.  As we get older our body loses water, we become dehydrated, and this is also reflected in our skin, which is fading.

  • Diet deficient in healthy fats
  • Dehydration, that is, when we don’t drink enough fluids
  • Excessive exposure to the sun or aggressive climates
  • Smoking
  • Lack of facial care
  • Excessive use of conventional facial cosmetics
  • Hormonal disorder

Consume healthy fatHealthy Fats for dry skin

Also, if you want to control your weight still you should not worry about it as good fats are properly assimilated by our body without causing fat deposits. They also keep us more satiated and help build muscle, which needs a lot of energy to maintain itself and that increases our metabolism too.

On the other hand, harmful fats do make us overweight.

Some people have noticed that their skin is more hydrated simply by drinking about a liter and a half of water a day. Drinking lots of water can improve the condition of our skin in few days.

If we start our day by drinking 1 or 2 glass of water on an empty stomach it can also be very beneficial, not only for our skin but for our body in general.

Next we can apply facial toner or a moisturizer at night before going to bed. It is good to apply a nourishing mask on weekly basis to hydrate the skin. Moreover, we suggest to apply following natural skin care tips for dry skin to get better results.
