Home Remedies for Dry Skin on the Face

Gentle Face Washing

When cleaning your face with cleansers or soaps, try to be as gentle as possible. Avoid rubbing or scrubbing rigorously. You should not use an abrasive washcloth or sponge neither. Instead, just use the fingertips to rub gently the face to prevent irritation. Another thing to keep in mind is to avoid washing the face so many times during the day. People with dry skin should only wash the face at night. This can help avoid removing too much natural oil from the skin as well as remove collected dirt after a long day. For exfoliating, try only one time a week to reduce the risk of irritation due to harsh scrubbing. [5]
