I’ve tried everything to keep the skin on my face hydrated to the point where it’s so dry I’m moisturizing at LEAST 5 times a day bc Just a few hours after I moisture it feels sooo dry & I layer it on so thick🤦‍♀️ everyone told me to use CeraVe hydrating cleanser everyone swears by it & it makes my face even more dry and it feels like my face is on fire🙃 I thought it was burning because my face might have those microscopic open cuts from over exfoliating that everyone talks about which I definitely used to be guilty of but I started using a face scrub only once a week now & after letting some time go by it still burns the name and my face is more dry than it ever was using a face scrub every day instead of that hydrating cleanser but now I can see dead skin on my face if I try to put on makeup without exfoliating first & I drink at least a gallon of water a day so its not from me being dehydrated, I use the ceravae moisture barrier restoring face cream & the shea moisture sensitive skin peace rose oil face cream & my face still feels dry, everyone says coconut oil is awful for your face bc it’s so clogging but its the only thing that makes my face feel hydrated a little I’ve tried every other “ face friendly” oil & it doesn’t put a dent in the dryness
