What can cause dry skin and how can you prevent it?
Dry skin can be caused by:
The weather
Heat
Hot baths and showers
Swimming
Harsh soaps and detergents
A lack of humidity due to the weather or heaters reduces skin moisture. Long hot baths and showers will dry out the skin. Swimming and harsh soaps and detergents can strip the body of its natural oils which dry out the skin.
To prevent dry skin:
Try not to stay in areas with dry air to long
Wear clothing that is soft and let your skin breath
Use mild, non-perfumed skin products
Have shorter, cooler showers and baths
What are Eczema and Psoriasis and how will Epaderm help those two skin conditions along with dry skin?
Eczema:
Occurs when the skin is unable to retain much water causing very dry skin. This dryness may make the skin more likely to react to certain triggers, causing it to become red and itchy.
Psoriasis:
Occurs when skin cells are replaced more quickly than usual.
Neither eczema nor psoriasis can be cured completely, and only the effects can be reduced using treatments such as Epaderm.
The skin dries out when too much water evaporates from its surface, regular use of this emollient will relieve the symptoms of dry skin and help provide a protective barrier.
