Treat Your Dry Skin With Natural Products
When your skin is dry, cracked, becoming lined with wrinkles, and just feels completely parched, you know the time has come to take care of it.
Natural treatments have been around for a very long time. Consider Cleopatra! It’s been said that Cleopatra used essential oils to moisturize her face and body, even masks and special cleansing scrubs, all composed of natural fixes. It has been said that she may have used a wrinkle reducer and natural treatment composed of beeswax, maringa oil, aloe, goose fat, fennel, castor oil and other dry skin care concoctions. In fact, the very first known treatment on the face dates back to around 3000 BC in Egypt. This skin care elixir consisted of a type of animal bile, whipped up eggs from ostriches, olive oil, a kind of dough, and a milk mixture.
Over the years, many (including Cleopatra) discovered the wonders of natural ingredients. Now in modern times, people, of course, do not want to forage for ostrich eggs, put any type of bile on their skin, or take the time to make up their own natural serum. Thankfully, many of today’s products are being formulated using natural ingredients. Why is dry skin natural treatment back in vogue? The answer is: because it works! Cleopatra was known, after all, for her beauty and meticulous skin care regimens.
A dry skin serum formulated with natural oils and ingredients is a proven winner and is best for you and your health overall. Why use a skin cream that contains potentially damaging chemicals when you can choose to smooth a dry skin product with natural ingredients on your skin?

The oil expressed from the pulp of the avocado plant has essential vitamins and minerals that will regenerate skin cells and moisturize your skin. Avocado oil is a great natural ingredient not only because it can heal and moisturize, but also because it can penetrate the skin’s outer layer to get in deeply where damage may lie. The avocado is amazingly rich in proteins, fatty acids, and lecithin (a lipid that can be traced back to Cleopatra’s use of bile and egg). You can find a great dry skin natural treatment containing avocado oil, including those made by Ageless Derma.
