Information
Here are some recommendations for dealing with dry skin:

 
• Take fewer baths (and when you bathe, avoid hot water).  
• Moisturize your skin after bathing in order to prevent the skin from drying.  
• Avoid overdrying wet skin. Try patting your skin dry.  
• Avoid excessive use of soap.  
• Don’t overheat your house, and use a humidifier if you live in a dry climate.
