Change what you use to wash your face. You may just be using a facial cleanser that is too hard on your skin. Switching to a new cleanser that is gentler and contains moisturizing foam may solve your problem.

Try an avocado face mask. Mash up an avocado until it creates a paste. You can apply this paste to your face, using upward motions. Leave the paste on for 20 minutes, then rinse off your face and moisturize. This will help alleviate your dry skin.

Make sure you are getting your vitamins. Vitamins A, B and E are good for keeping skin hydrated. You can take them in capsule form, or you can get them through your diet by eating more leafy vegetables.

Drink lots of water. Drinking 8 to 10 glasses of water a day will help keep your entire body hydrated, including the skin on your face.

Give yourself a mini face-massage with almond oil. Rubbing your face with almond oil in the evenings after removing your makeup can help hydrate and smooth your skin. Be sure to wash all the oil off before bed, though, or you can cause serious breakouts.

Tips & Warnings
Never use any new facial treatment on your face without testing it on the inside of your arm first. If you do not notice any irritation in that area, then it is probably okay to put the treatment on your face.
