Dry facial skin is a common problem that many people face, especially in winter or dry weather. This condition can make the face feel uncomfortable and appear less radiant.
Dry skin itself is caused by dehydration , aging, and a buildup of dead skin cells. External factors such as exposure to sunlight and cigarette smoke also cause dry skin. Actually, dry skin is also caused by the skin not being able to maintain moisture and decreasing sebum levels.
Not only that, skin can also become drier during the fasting month. The reason is, the skin will lose hydration due to lack of fluid intake while fasting. Because of this, the skin is prone to dryness and peeling.
In fact, dry skin can sometimes be accompanied by other symptoms, such as sensitive skin, acne, and irritation or itching. To overcome this, the skin needs nutrition which can be obtained from moisturizer. Apart from that, dry skin needs hydration, food and moisture more often than normal or oily skin.

Contains olive oil to treat dry skin.Olive oil can treat dry skin by maintaining moisture. Reporting from Healthline, olive oil is known for its ability to moisturize and hydrate skin for those with dry skin. This benefit can be obtained thanks to the squalene and vitamin E content in olive oil.
The squalene content in it plays a role in locking water in the skin, while vitamin E increases the skin's ability to absorb water. With these two roles, olive oil can keep the skin hydrated and moisturized.
Not only that, olive oil can also increase collagen production in the skin. This substance is a raw material for the tissue under the skin which makes the skin more supple and firm.
