    Facial skin changed from oily to dry
    :confused: I used you have oily face skin that I never applied anything on my face even in winters while in India. 1.5 years back, I moved to beijing whose climate is extremely dry so from this winters that is since January my facial skin has become quite dry. Now it is so humid and hot here (beijing) in August still I have to apply moisturiser otherwise my skin becomes dry and flacky at certain regions of my face (cheeks, under eyes, forehead). I do not know what has happened to my face. I thought after winters the dryness of face will go away but after bathing I still have to apply moisturiser in summers. Please help!

    There are several factors that result in dry skin dry such as genetics, hot or cold weather, excessive bathing and the use of air conditioning or central heating, or excessive bathing. To combat dry skin you will need to moisturize your skin daily. Some moisturizers contains water or alcohol-based, which will dry out your skin. I recommend using an oil-based moisturizer to reduce the incident of dry skin.
