How to Choose a Dry Skin Cream by Frank Langella

Are you frustrated with dry, flaky skin? Are you looking for a dry skin cream that can make your skin soft and smooth again? Well, you are in luck. Finding such a cream is really not difficult; there are just a few things you need to look for. Let's find out what they are.


Why does it happen
Before we talk about choosing a dry skin cream, we need to understand why does our skin get dry in the first place. Broadly, there are two causes of dry skin:


1) Environmental factors - wind, sun and even cold weather cause the skin to become dry
2) Use of soap and harsh cleansers - soaps wash out the natural oils present in our skin, which then makes our skin dry. A similar effect is brought upon our skin by using harsh cleansers. Ideally, a cleanser should only remove extra oil and the dust or pollution that has settled down on the skin. But many cleansers remove all the oils from the skin, making it deficient in oil and hence, dry.


The solution
Some basic skin care combined with a good, natural dry skin cream will work wonders in getting your skin back in shape. A balanced diet is essential for making sure your skin is nourished and gets all the nutrients to keep it healthy. Drink plenty of water - this will keep your body and skin hydrated naturally.


Top it off with a natural skin cream. Now, it's easy to rush off to your neighborhood store and buy the first cream that is packaged attractively and looks good. That, however, is not the best way to do it.


Instead, just do a little research and check the ingredients that a good skin cream should have. Most of the creams available in the stores contain harmful chemicals that do more damage than good for your skin. What is needed is a cream with natural ingredients like Active Manuka Honey. This is a special honey from New Zealand which helps keep the skin hydrated.


Babassu wax is another natural ingredient which softens and soothes the skin. It is made from Babassu oil - sourced from the Babassu palm found in Brazil. It creates a thin, invisible layer on the skin which keeps the dust out and retains the moisture inside.


Do yourself a favor and find out a good natural dry skin cream containing these natural ingredients. You can have a baby-soft smooth skin back in no time!
