There are a couple of things you can do to avoid dry skin.
Take shorter showers with warm, not hot, water. The hot water removes protective oils from the skin.
Use a mild soap and apply moisturizer within five minute of getting out of the shower.
If you have persistent dry, itchy skin that you cannot resolve with over-the-counter moisturizer creams, you may have a more pressing problem.
If your skin problem is causing you lack of sleep or is troublesome for more than one week, it’s a good idea to see a doctor.
