What Causes Dry Skin In The Face?
I have dry skin (all of a sudden) on my face (temple, above eye (below eyebrow), chin (really bad)). I have never had this problem. The humidity in my house is fine (40%). Recently, changed my laundry detergent (two days ago), things don't seem to be changing, but I may need to wait a little longer to see if this is the cause.

Hello,
Thank you for writing to HCM.
Dry skin is caused due to dehydration, if you wash face too frequently, due to facial and other procedures, due to certain medication.
I would advice you to wash your face with cetaphil cleanser twice daily.
Apply elovera cream twice daily over the affected area.
Drink lot of water. Drink melon juice daily. Keep yourself well hydrated.
Regards.
