Dry skin can be really irritating to deal with - all that itchiness due to lack of moisturizer, that annoying pull that you feel when your skin is dry and of course weird rashes at times because your skin soaked in all the moisture and now it is dry again! Ugh! The dilemma!
But, in case if you are confused about the fact that if you have dry skin or not? Then here is a little experiment that you can try; first thing when you wake up in the morning, splash some cold water on your face and don’t wipe it off. Let the water dry off on its own. Now after the water has dried off, if your skin feels okay then you don’t have dry skin and if your skin feels pulled and itchy then you have dry skin.
It is also a myth that summers & monsoons do not give you dry skin. Yes, the humidity may make you feel otherwise, but products like sunscreens, moisturizers are to your skin what water is to your throat. Moisturizers ensure that the natural oils in your skin get replenished & keep it supple & free from infection.
Now, the little experiment above is for you to check if you have dry skin naturally. Sometimes, especially in extremely hot summers, we tend to spend a lot of our time in air-conditioned rooms and this also makes our skin dry. Hence, hydration is the key, no matter the season.
Below are some top picks from us for your skin so it stays happy & hydrated always!
