My face is flaking, dry skin?!
Question: My face is flaking, dry skin?
Lately for the past 2 months, my skin has been dry/flaking. After i shower, my face is always like flaking. My skin is smooth but there is a lot of flaking. What should i do and can anyone recommend products? The flakiness/dryness goes away an hour after the shower but i also have to kinda rub off the skin. I don't want to wake up an hour early to do this before i go to school
Is this maybe a seasonal thing, because i notice my skin isn't that great during winter compared to summer. Please no lotion/moisturizers because i think that will clog my pores and give me acne.
Also i do have some acne, and i take pills for that. But i've been doing this for over a year without having skin problems. Lately i stopped using the topical cream and stuck to the pills only. If anything, me not using the topical cream should make my skin smoother, not drier/flakier.

Answers:
I have this issue also. I find that the skin is in better shape when:
1) exfoililate with gentle scrub cream several times a week
2)supplement diet with essiential oils(i.e. fishoils, flaxseed oils, etc)
3) more water in diet
4) Less sugary, processed foods in diet
I don't know but watch bubzbeauty on youtube she has a lot of tips and some of the products she recommends might work
