Tightness after washing, rough patches and flaking are all signs of dry skin. It is very common, especially with Morocco's sun, wind and dry heat, and the good news is that simple habits make a big difference.
What causes dry skin on the face?
- Dry climate, sun and wind.
- Very hot water and harsh cleansers.
- Age: the skin makes fewer natural oils over time.
- Not drinking enough water.
6 tips for dry skin
- Cleanse gently with lukewarm water and a mild cleanser.
- Moisturise on damp skin to lock the water in.
- Choose nourishing ingredients like argan oil, shea butter and hyaluronic acid.
- Use a richer cream at night, when the skin loses the most water.
- Protect your skin by day with sunscreen.
- Drink water throughout the day.
