  You wash your face and expect to feel fresh and clean, but instead it feels irritated and tight. And during the dryer months like winter and fall, your skin is extra flaky and can peel easily, causing you to look red and feel itchy.Dry skin struggles to retain natural moisture needed as a protective shield against external influences. Because of this, your skin may feel rough and look on the duller side. You may not be prone to acne, but the dehydrated feeling might seem just as difficult to manage.“Just let your skin breathe” — Felicity HuffmanReady to get your skin glowing? Here are some tips to get you started!1) Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize. The best thing to do for dry skin is to get it hydrated. Use a deep, nighttime moisturiser.Water can dry out the skin easily, so this is the best time to ensure you develop hydration. And we promise you’ll see results the very next day!2) Ditch the harsh chemicals. Ingredients in soap and cleansers like fragrance and parabens can be super rough on dry skin. Instead try purchasing something mild and gentle on your skin. Your skin won’t retain moisture if it can’t breathe! 3) Hello Sun, Goodbye Drought! If your house is too hot or you spend too much time in the sun, this can dry out your skin quickly. Try using a humidifier in your home, and make sure to wear sunscreen!

  Even after washing your face, you notice your skin is still shiny. No matter how much you blot and powder, your skin looks like a bright pearl gleaming in the sea.This can cause breakouts, especially in the T zone. Even your pores look huge to you in certain light! Don’t worry. This is normal, especially for teenagers and young adults.You may even struggle to even keep makeup on. After a long day your makeup might start just sliding off your skin. An upside? Extra moisture can help protect your skin from other external factors.“Beautiful skin requires commitment, not a miracle” — Erno LazloReady to get your skin glowing? Here are some tips to get you started!1) Just Keep on Scrubbing! Exfoliating your face is an extremely effective way of clearing away dead skin. Exfoliation can be mechanical by using a face washer of speciality facial mit or "chemical" (remember to use smooth particles not rough, sharp particles in your exfoliating cream or lotion)2) Remember, the best time to exfoliate is at night before bed. You don’t want to open up your pores before loading on product in the morning!3) Moisturise Smarter, not Harder. I know what you're thinking, why add more moisture onto an already greasy face? But the reason your skin might be so oily is because it's working extra hard to hydrate. Try using an oil face cleanser or moisturiser before bed, and a milder one in the morning. This will help your skin relax!
