Qor, you skin is probably defatted, using too much soap can cause that.

Exfoliate, this brand is good if you can find it but any will work

Drink plenty of water and eat fruits and of course moisturise! Its shocking that there are people who dont moisturise after a bath/shower

If you want soft skin ASAP Garnier is the way to go

use st ives aprocot body scrubs ... make you use quite hot water to open the skin.. then use e45 or neutrogena dry skin cream

or the best somali method use buurcad :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:


hope that helps sis

LOL Tell us how you clean urself, dont be shy to tell the details :D

Soap defatts the skin, if you give the body the rest it needs (usually one week) it will repair itself.

Use soaps with neutral ph value which is 7, they´re are usually below that rate, around 6 or 6.5

This thing is so strong it will moisture the hell out of your skin, use regularly and even if you scratch yourself you wont see white lines
