I Have Dry Skin And It Looks Like I Have Dandruff All Over
I have dry skin that covers my arms up to the shoulders,legs up to my groin, face down to my neck. It usually looks really red and is not even.i usually put lotion on it, if i dont it looks like i have dandruff all over. my father had it until he was 13 and my third cousin has it, but it is worse. when his skin peels, it bleeds. i tried for years different solutions, but none work. i just want beautiful skin and feel comfortable wearing tank tops and sleevless outfits !

Hi,
Thanks for query,
This type of picture we found among the girls doing waxing regularly.
So if you are doing waxing stop totally.
apply branded moisturizing lotion.
Avoid fried and junk food.
Take vit A,D,E and multivitamin supplements.
Take plenty of water and green veggies and fresh fruits.
Having possibility of dandruff consult dermatologist and get examined physically.
Ok and bye.
