How to moisturize your skin 📌🌟
1. Use a humidifier in the winter. ⛄❄
Set it to around 60%, a level that should be sufficient to moisturize your skin.
2. Keep showers short.🚿
Limit yourself to one 5- to 10-minute bath or shower daily. If you bathe more than that, you may strip away much of the skin's oily layer and cause it to lose moisture.
3. Minimize your use of soaps.🧼
Consider soap-free cleansers. Use fragrance-free laundry detergents and avoid fabric softeners, too.
4. Be gentle to your skin.🧽
Stay away from bath sponges, scrub brushes, and rough washcloths.
5. Don't scratch.❌
Most of the time, a moisturizer can control the itch. You can also use a cold pack or compress to relieve itchy spots.
6. Prune your wardrobe. 🧺
If you find that clothing containing wool, acrylics, or other fabrics irritates your skin, give those garments away.
