Brilio.net - Everyone has a different skin type. There are those who have dry, oily, combination and sensitive skin types. Having dry skin can make anyone feel uncomfortable and insecure. Therefore, it is important to always care for facial skin so that it remains healthy, moisturized and well-groomed.
Dry facial skin is a common problem that many people face, especially in winter or dry weather, until the fasting month like now. This condition can make the face feel rough or textured, peeling, scaly, and appear less radiant.
Not without reason, this condition can also be caused by dehydration, aging, and a buildup of dead skin cells. External factors such as exposure to sunlight and cigarette smoke also influence the causes of dry skin. Actually, dry skin occurs when the skin cannot maintain moisture due to decreased sebum levels, and the skin's ability to stay hydrated decreases.
Dry skin can also 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 also needs more hydration, food and moisture than normal or oily skin.
For this reason, many people use natural ingredients to moisturize dry skin. One of the natural ingredients commonly used is aloe vera gel. This natural ingredient is known to contain antioxidants, vitamin E and vitamin C which maintain optimal skin moisture and hydration. But it turns out it's not just aloe vera, you know. There are still other natural ingredients that are no less effective for hydrating dry facial skin.

Oatmeal is a food ingredient that has various health benefits, thanks to its mineral and fiber content. Not only that, this source of carbohydrates and fiber is also often used as a skincare product, because it contains antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. One of the benefits is maintaining skin moisture and preventing dry skin.
As quoted from the DermNet website, the colloid content in oatmeal is claimed to be able to help bind skin tissue and provide protection against irritation. This is because this compound contains polysaccharides as water binders and hydrocolloids which are claimed to be effective in maintaining skin hydration and moisture. This colloid also acts as a natural emollient or moisturizer which can relieve itching and soothe skin irritation.
