Head to the Kitchen for Dry Skin Home Remedies

Everyone knows of someone who has a remedy for dry skin using natural ingredients. Here are some ideas from everydayHealth.com


Olive Oil Cleanser
Olive oil is both a natural cleanser and moisturizer so all you need to do is rub he oil into your skin and drape a warm, damp cloth over your face until it cools explained Brandy Crompton, spa manager of Lebliss Salon and Spa in Louisville, Ky.


Avocado Mask
Puree half an avocado and mix with a teaspoon of olive oil; you can also add a tablespoon of honey for very dry skin. Apply the mask to your face, leave it on for 15 to 20 minutes, and wash it off.


Olive Oil and Sugar Scrub
Create a naturally moisturizing exfoliating scrub using a combination of olive oil and sugar. Combine ½ cup of sugar with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, says Crompton. If you want, you can add an essential oil like lavender for a natural fragrance and its relaxation benefits. Gently rub the scrub into your skin, then wash it off.


Oatmeal Honey Mask
Mix together 2 tablespoons of oats with a tablespoon of honey and a dash of water. Crompton suggests warming up the mixture, then rubbing it into your skin. You can use it just to exfoliate, wash it off right away, or leave it on for 15 to 20 minutes as a soothing, hydrating mask before rinsing.
