If your skin is dry and flaky, here's what you can do:
Sometimes flaking is caused by a medical condition that needs special treatment. If you also have flaky scalp and flaking is mainly in the middle of your forehead and either side of your nose, you should see your doctor.
Avoid taking hot showers and baths. These can remove moisture from the skin.
Use a gel when shaving. Follow with a moisturizer.
Be sure to use sunscreen year-round.
