Dry skin

Y’all it’s not even fully winter 🥶 yet and my skin is already so dry! I wash my hands 🤲🏻 all day. I teach preschool so between craft projects and germy 🦠 kids I am always washing my hands. Last winter ❄️ they got so dry they cracked and had little cut like areas all over them. I feel like I have tried every lotion 🧴on the market. Someone has to have a good hack for dry skin. I am open to trying all the concoctions y’all have came up with! #letschat #asklemon8 #dryskin

... Read moreDry skin can be a persistent issue, especially during winter months when the air is dry and cold. Frequent handwashing, common in professions like teaching, exacerbates dryness. To combat this, consider using thick, emollient creams that contain ingredients such as glycerin, hyaluronic acid, and oat extract to lock in moisture. It's also crucial to apply moisturizers immediately after washing your hands, which helps to trap moisture before it evaporates. Additionally, incorporating a humidifier in your home can significantly improve air quality and hydration levels, preventing skin from drying out. Avoid hot showers that strip natural oils and choose lukewarm water instead. Don't forget to drink plenty of water and maintain a balanced diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which can also promote skin health. Lastly, you may want to explore natural remedies such as coconut oil or shea butter, which can provide deep hydration. Experiment with these tips this season and share your experiences with others on Lemon8!

You can make you a oatmeal bag out of coffee filters and get the oatmeal that you cook and just put a little bit in there and put a rubber band on it and you can get a bowl put you some water in it warm water and drop that oatmeal bag and then put your hand in there that soothes it and it comes the skin and when you're done get you some aquaphor that is a healing ointment and put it on your hand now if you really want to do some you can get Saran wrap and wrap around your hand while you're at home and just it keeps it moisturized or they have moisturizing gloves You could do that too

Have you tried African black soap? The real one not store bought. With all natural ingredients. If not, you might want to. Naturecraft.net has it and it’s amazing. It moisturizes while it cleans. Then I’d follow up with dragons breath lotion. Beeswax, shea butter, sweet almond oil, cocoa butter, patchouli, tea tree, and lime. This stuff works miracles on my husband.He has alligator skin.
