Hereâs what you can do for dryness, flakiness, and pimples in the area around your nose and mouth:
Gentle Cleansing: Use a mild, hydrating face wash to clean the area without over-drying your skin.
Moisturizer: Apply a thick, non-comedogenic moisturizer after washing your face, especially on the dry and flaky areas.
Spot Treatment: For pimples, use a small amount of a benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid gel only on the affected areas.
Avoid Over-Washing: Washing your face too often can worsen dryness. Limit it to twice a day.
Hydration: Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated from within.
Avoid Irritants: Refrain from using harsh scrubs or exfoliants that can irritate dry skin further.
