What do I do for dry skin?

Dry Skin Tips

If you suffer from dry skin, here are a few immediate techniques you can use to help moisturize your skin:

Switch to your cream based skin rejuvenation products if you have dry skin.
As estrogens decrease with the onset of menopause, a decrease in sebum results, leading to drier skin.
Protect dry chapped lips with emollients such as Vaseline or Aquaphor.
Apply a body moisturizing cream twice daily during the fall and winter to keep your skin hydrated and healthy.
Using a 1% OTC hydrocortisone ointment on your lips when they start to crack during the winter will speed the healing process.

If your dry skin continues, visit a dermatologist for a more structured skin care regime.
