What are the best natural ingredients for dry skin?

Dry skin is not a serious skin condition, but it is one that affects a lot of people.

In most cases, dryness is caused by exterior factors such as hot or cold weather, low moisture levels in the air, and soaking in hot water.

Usually, it causes a feeling of skin tightness, especially after being in touch with warm water, itching and flacking or peeling. The skin ceases to have a healthy glow and it becomes reactive, causing cracks or redness.

The good news is that in the most common situations, dry skin is preventable and controlable, especially with the right skin care routine.
