Home Remedies For Dry Skin

Home remedies have been around forever and some are pretty effective.

Here I’ll list a few easy to use and safe remedies to hydrate and sooth your dry face problems.

Many people found relief from extremely conditions using natural home made products.

# 1 Home Remedies For Dry Skin

One of the most important treatment for dry skin is to stop using SOAP! It doesn’t matter if you're normal, dry, or oily – nobody should ever use soap on their face.

Your cleanser should be pH balanced. This means that your facial cleanser cream should have a pH that measures around 7 which is neutral.

The pH measures the how acidic or alkaline your cleanser is. Normal healthy dermis has a pH range 4.2 to 5.6.

At this level, the acid mantle (the upper dermis surface) is in good condition and is protected from dehydration and other damaging elements of the environment like wind, sun or bacteria.

A pH below 7 is considered more acidic and above 7 is more alkaline.

# 2 Home Remedies For Dry Skin - Oils

A great natural cure for dry skin is to massage emu oil or olive oil on the dry areas.

Emu oil remedies have been around for thousands of years and has been used by the Aborigines as home treatment for cuts, burns, and wounds.

They had to brave the harsh sun of Australia and knew that not only can emu oil moisturize, heal and protect.

You should apply the Emu Oil each time you wash your face and every night before you go to bed. It’s best to apply the oil while still damp, not wet, just slightly damp like right after drying it with a towel.

Surprising, a dry complexion responds well to a healthful diet.....which is often overlooked. Especially for those who are obsessed with low fat diets.

A very low fat diet does effect your complexion. Consider eating more essential fats into your diet....like fish oil, flaxseed oil, or even pure olive oil.

Flaxseeds oil are easy to incorporate you can buy the seeds and just crush them up and add to yogurt, salads, or shakes.

Or just the oil and pour into the foods listed above. It's pretty tasteless, so you'll never notice it.

Olive oil is very tasty on a salad - and a nice change from commercial bottle dressings. These types of fats will not only help with dry complexion, but can actually help keep your weight in balance.

So, what else should a healthy diet consist of? Well, plenty of water for one thing.....believe it not, this is one of the most important remedies for healthy complexion!
