Great tips to get rid of very dry flaky skin on legs - Dr. Rasya Dixit | Doctors' Circle

If  you  have dry  scaly  legs,  it is  definitely a  no no to show  off  your  legs. So let us  see  what are  the  tips  to  make  sure than the  skin  looks  hydrated  on  the  legs  this cold  winter. The  first  tip is    that  usually  the  legs  have  less  oil glands  than the rest  of the body.  So make sure  if  you are using  a body wash on the legs, make  sure  you are using the body wash  as less  as  possible. Do not use  a loofah  very  regularly  as  it  will end up dehydrating the  skin further if possible  apply a  coconut  oil or  an almond  oil  on your  legs  before the  shower. Wait for 10   minutes before you step into  your shower.   Use lukewarm water instead of hot  water to make sure the oiliness of the skin stays intact. Use pH    balanced  soap free body  wash  or  soaps to maintain the  skins hydration. An application of a thick shea butter  containing moisturizing creams  to make sure   the skin stays  hydrated  throughout  the  day. Don’t  fort to repeat  the process  at  night so that  you can  wash your  feet with  warm water and apply  a moisturizer a  layer  before  going to bed.  Definitely involves  some exfoliation  of  the  skin just  like you use  for your  face,  use  an  exfoliation   once  a  week for the  legs to make it  looking its  best  this festive season.
