Choosing the right cream for dry skin is important to keep the skin healthy and hydrated. Such creams should contain ingredients like hyaluronic acid, glycerin, shea butter, and ceramides, which help retain moisture in the skin. Regular use of these creams relieves skin problems like dryness, itching, and stretch marks. Cleaning the skin with lukewarm water before applying the cream and applying the cream twice a day, especially after bathing, is more effective. It is better to choose a cream without fragrance and chemicals for dry skin so that the skin does not get any damage.
