  • Dry Skin Tip #1: Humidify Your Home

    Use a home humidifier, especially during intensely cold or hot months, to add moisture to the air.

  • Dry Skin Tip #2: Avoid Long, Hot Showers

    Hot water can strip your skin of its natural oils. (I don’t like hearing this any more than you do).

  • Dry Skin Tip #3: Wear Breathable Clothing

    Wear breathable fabrics – lucky us that linen clothing is super trendy, no matter your age, and also keeps you cool in the summer!

  • Dry Skin Tip #4: Check Water Quality

    Hard water can be harsh on the skin and contribute to dryness. If you’re not sure if you have hard water, use this water quality test kit.

  • Dry Skin Tip #5: Consider Pillowcase Texture

    Rough or textured bedding fabric may lead to irritation; opt for organic silk pillowcases like this to minimize friction against your facial skin.
