Tips 1 : Drink more water and make yourself a “little water man”

70% of the human body is made up of water, the foundation of life. So the easiest and most practical way to deal with dryness is to drink water.

Drink enough water a small amount and several times a day to make yourself a “little water person” and keep your skin and mouth moist.

Coup Two: Moisturize

After becoming a water person, it is necessary to reduce the loss of body water, so the second measure to deal with dryness: moisturizing.

1. Choose a suitable moisturizing product

You can choose a cream with more oily ingredients As a moisturizing agent, it not only plays the role of lubricating and moisturizing, but also has better moisturizing power. Therefore, it is recommended to apply a moisturizing cream as soon as possible after bathing, washing your face or washing your hands.

How to choose a moisturizing cream?

Moisturizers that contain olive, shea, or jojoba oils work well. Other ingredients that can soothe dry skin include lactic acid, urea, hyaluronic acid, Dimethicone, glycerin, lanolin, mineral oil and petrolatum.

Some people may have a dry nose. If the nasal cavity is dry, you can consult a doctor and then use some drugs to moisten the nasal cavity; if the nostril is also very dry, use a cotton swab Just put some Vaseline on it.

2. Get rid of the bad habit of losing water

Don’t lick your lips.

Licking your lips is a very bad habit, and the more you lick it, the more dry it becomes.

Because after licking your lips, the saliva left on your lips will take away the moisture of your lips when they evaporate.

To keep your lips comfortable, why not put on a lip balm?

Do not wash your face with hot water.

Take a bath and wash your face with hot water, which can easily remove the sebum secreted by the skin itself. When this layer of protection is completely destroyed, the loss of moisture through the skin will increase, and the skin will suffer from dryness.

Everyone still wash your face with warm water, the best time to take a bath is 10 minutes around.

Use some mild cleaning products.

If the ingredients of the cleaning products used contain fatty acid sodium, fatty acid potassium, fatty acid ethanolamine, etc., stop using them temporarily.

These products have strong cleaning power and can destroy the lipid components on the surface, reducing the skin’s water retention capacity.

Trick 3: Use a humidifier

After using the above method, you still feel dry, Then you have to soak in water.

Oh no, to be precise, it should be hydrating the environment.

It is inefficient to put wet towels in the room and put water in the washbasin. The efficient and labor-saving way to replenish water to the environment is to use a humidifier.

Humidifiers can effectively improve indoor dryness and help maintain skin, mouth, and nasal passages It is moisturizing and reduces static electricity generation. In dry places like the north, humidifiers are more popular.
