Hi Casandra,
What are you using on your skin? Over washing can strip the skin of natural oils. So can a lot of products out there.

Arbonne has a couple of different lines that address dryness. If you would like to learn more or try some samples, send me a message.

Keep in mind that the longer you're in water, the more protective oils you lose and the more dryer your skin, so avoid frequent washing,washing once a day is sufficient to remove a dirt, but if you can't change your daily routine ,twice is enough.
Use mild soaps or cleansers with moisturizers .You don't need expensive ones like the celebrities use. Products line from Neutrogena, Basis or Dove are great.

Oh yea by the way never use hot water, just use warm water.

Yikes, three times a day does seem a bit excessive. Do you have breakouts? blackheads? Are you doing it for a specific reason? Not only will over washing strip the skin in an unhealthy way, it can also cause the skin to become more oily as the body tries to compensate. Once-to-twice a day is sufficient, wash in tepid water with a cleanser that isn't detergent based, Cetaphil is a good cheap one you can pick up almost anywhere. After washing, pat dry, and apply your moisturizer while skin is still moist. If you aren't prone to breakouts or blackheads, to help heal your skin faster try using something like Aquafore with zinc oxide, it has natural healing properties. I'd only use it at night though and only a small amount, or you could just spot treat if your whole face isn't red and peeling.

Dont use soap, as the detergents in it will aggravate the dry skin even more...use a mild gentle cleanser, and if possible, one without any sodium lauryl/laureth sulphates...these are chemicals found in TONS of cleansers,shower gels, body wash, shampoo etc that is actually VERY drying on the skin....
3 times a day is too much, once in the morning, and once at night is plenty...then tone and moisturise

[dazzlepink]

You should not wash your face 3 times a day, that can damage your skin. It might be ok if its just with water, but if you have soap, it will damage your skin. Try a good moisturise. Try a washer for dry skins and toner. You dont really need to have skinn toner and cleaner every morning, its ok after you washed your face with lunked water. then wait a few minutes, then add the moisturiser. Hope you find this helpfull But remember, wash it twice, not 3 times a day

[raych101]

"washing" with luke warm water alone will do nothing for your skin...in my opinion a good cleanser, non alcohol toner, and moisturiser twice a day is essential

[rozduke]

with wahtever else your doing to your skin, you should get one of the face spritz bottles from the body shop, the have them in vitamin C and vitamin E. they just spray gently over your face and moisturize your face really nicely without taking off your makeup. its uper easy just to carry in your bag as well!

hope that helped

[bextacyaddict]

ive found that you should wash your face twice a day, using moisturising face wash. also, dont be to harsh with using sponges and stuff.... use a soft flannel and warm water. then you should use a mild moisturiser, specially for dry skin to finish with

[shallowGirl]

It will help you to consume olive oil or flax seed oil. This will moisture you from inside and you will have very pretty healthy skin.

Water also to drink it is a benefit for you, so don't forget to drink it!
Well these are things I do in my daily life. People compliment me for my glowing complexion.

What are you washing with
Either way, don't wash so much.
Maybe you should give your skin a break, let it regain some of its natural oils.
Don't wash it for a few days, but don't wear makeup, either.
And before you go to bed, and when you get up, just wash it with a baby wipe.
It'll clean off all the ick, but it wont take any oils.

My girlfriend is 28 and she has beautiful clear skin. I asked her what does she use on her skin and she said nothing girl. She told me she just washes her face with a gentle cleanser and thats it. No moisturizer, no sunscreen, no makeup, no facials, no nothing. She lives in Miami so I could not believe she used no sunscreen. I started wondering if all the of products Im currently use sunscreen, toner, exfoliator wash, foundation, clay mask, acne treatment on my face are actually doing more harm than good. What do you guys think?

[dVixenMakeup]

3 times is too much, you are stripping your skin of it's own natural vitamins it needs to stay healthy throughout the day. Wash one in the morning and wash once in the evening, that's all you gotta do.

hi It Me Viacra

it has any make up tutorial for dry skin?

[nickyQ]

My skin is dry either,i think wash twice a day is enough,after washing,i usually use a lot of skin-Moisture water or oil,then put some emulsion on skin,and eat some fruits like apple、banana is very necesary,you can try it!

[cutekitten]

With the winter I have had super dry skin where it gets patchy and gross. I started using aquafina daily moisturizer and it has helped me a lot. Also straight aloe very works well bu my plant died

I'd say you're over-washing your face.

Wash it once in the morning and once at night. Make sure you don't use soap, but a specialised face-cleanser. Use a good skin cream, they can be very affordable. If you wanna splurge a little, Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour skin cream is very thick and nourishing. Use products which contain honey if at all possible.

Also give yourself a facemask with honey once or twice a week.

I've tried Dove, Aveene, The Face Shop Iceflower Hrdra cream but what really worked wonders for my skin is Laneige Hydra Solution line. It makes my skin soft and doesn't give me zits at all. I start with Laneige Hydra Solution activator followed by Hydra Solution cream and last is Laneige Hydra Solution Essence. I do this once a day, in the morning before I put on my makeup. So far, I'm loving the results and I'll purchase another one once I run out of my supply!

Hi Cassandra!

First, stop washing your skin soo much. You need natural oils for your body!

Second, get a moisturizer. Do you even use one? I recommend a clear essence product because its cheap and effective. Go to our site at www.freeclearessencsamples.com and you could get a free product for your skin. Yeah,i know, its free (even the shipping and handling).

And them email me at inlandbeauty@gmail.com so we can get free dermatologists advise for your skin. I know a couple of people who could help you out on that professionally and you dont have to pay them.

I hope to hear from you.
