Very dry and irritated face skin

2025-04-19 07:15:04
I’ve been experiencing dryness and irritation on my face for the past 5–6 months. I don’t have a history of skin issues. I started using retinol to treat fine lines, but it seems to be worsening the dryness. Could you help me soothe and reduce the dryness on my face?
