What causes dry skin?
Dry skin occurs when the skin does not contain enough moisture. It can cause irritating and uncomfortable symptoms such as itchiness, cracking and peeling. There are many different factors that can cause dry skin including:
- Weather – when temperatures and humidity levels descend, reduces the level of moisture in the air which can dry the skin out
- Heat – sources of heat such as central heating, fireplaces and heaters all reduce the moisture level in the air, which can dry out the skin
- Hot baths and showers – taking long hot showers or baths can dry out the skin
- Swimming – spending long amounts of time in chlorinated pools can strip the skin of its natural oils and cause dry skin
- Harsh soaps and detergents – many soaps, detergents and shampoos strip the skin of moisture, as they are formulate to remove oil
