Causes of dry skin

Some skin dryness occurs due to pathological factors, and some result from poor care and attention. There are many wrong habits that people do, such as exposure to strong sunlight for long periods, exposure to chemicals such as detergents and others. Bathing hot water more than once a day removes the fatty layer that increases the moisture content. The heat evaporates a percentage of the water in the body’s cells and increases the dryness.

In addition, the use of some types of alkaline soaps that contain perfume and low proportion of moisturizers also contribute to dryness of the skin

As for the pathological factors, there are some cases that cause dryness of the skin such as imbalance in metabolic processes such as lack of activity of the thyroid, or lack of secretion of sufficient amounts of fat from the sebaceous glands
Diabetes has been shown to have an effect, contributing to the symptoms of dry skin
In addition, aging increases the ability of the skin to retain water due to skin thinning, which reduces the number of cells that contain a percentage of fat and helps to keep more water in the skin
