The wall can be weakened by external aggressors like weather, pollution and lifestyle. Itching and dryness are signs of a compromised skin barrier and an unbalanced microbiome. Much like our gut relies on active probiotics and other gut bacteria to restore health, the biome of the skin needs to maintain certain bacteria to keep the skin looking healthy. Prebiotics are food for probiotics and the microbiome. In skincare, prebiotics like colloidal oatmeal encourage the presence of good bacteria, which can help create a healthy environment for the skin microbiome. Conditions associated with dry skin Finding the right products for very dry itchy skin makes a huge difference, whether it’s for you, your partner, or your little one, and using them regularly is just as important.Your skin has a diverse community of good and bad bacteria that make up what is called its microbiome.

Lotions are good for hairy or damaged areas of skin (such as weeping eczema – where pus is seeping out of damaged areas of skin). This is because lotions are thin and spread easily, but they're not very moisturising. Sprays Wearing tight clothing made from synthetic materials such as polyester, nylon and spandex, can contribute to dry skin. This is because synthetic materials don’t breathe as well as natural fibres and can cause you to sweat more, causing irritation, which can lead to dry, itchy skin.They can be used to replace lost moisture whenever your skin feels dry or tight. They're very safe and you cannot overuse them. Be gentle – gently pat your skin dry after washing and apply the emollient while the skin is still damp. This helps retain moisture. They help prevent patches of inflammation and flare-ups of these conditions. Types of emollients Lotions Be careful not to slip when using emollients in a bath or shower, or on a tiled floor. Protect the floor with a non-slip mat, towel or sheet. Wear protective gloves, wash your bath or shower afterwards with hot water and washing-up liquid, then dry with a kitchen towel. Skin irritation from aqueous cream an overheating, burning sensation or stinging that does not settle after a few days of treatment – usually caused by a reaction to a certain ingredient in the emollient
