For dry skin, applying moisturizer while the skin

00:00:03.950 --> 00:00:06.528
is still slightly damp can be helpful.

00:00:06.854 --> 00:00:09.725
Keep your suitable moisturizer near the towel so

00:00:09.638 --> 00:00:12.109
the step fits naturally into your routine.

00:00:12.885 --> 00:00:14.783
Damp does not mean dripping wet.

00:00:15.136 --> 00:00:17.594
Gently pat away excess water with a clean

00:00:17.507 --> 00:00:20.391
towel, then apply the product as directed.

00:00:20.691 --> 00:00:22.509
You do not need to time the process

00:00:22.422 --> 00:00:23.535
with a stopwatch.

00:00:24.289 --> 00:00:27.399
Creams and ointments can suit dry skin, but

00:00:27.312 --> 00:00:29.983
there is no single texture for everyone.

00:00:30.296 --> 00:00:33.220
Consider the body area, how your skin feels

00:00:33.480 --> 00:00:35.751
and whether the product is comfortable to use

00:00:35.664 --> 00:00:36.404
regularly.

00:00:37.167 --> 00:00:40.863
Damp-skin advice for moisturizer does not automatically apply

00:00:40.777 --> 00:00:43.554
to active treatments or prescription creams.

00:00:43.960 --> 00:00:47.337
Follow their own instructions and any sequence your

00:00:47.237 --> 00:00:49.988
healthcare professional has given you for your skin.

00:00:50.750 --> 00:00:53.421
If your current products suit you, try improving

00:00:53.334 --> 00:00:55.792
the timing before replacing everything.

00:00:56.131 --> 00:00:58.563
A simpler routine makes it easier to notice

00:00:58.849 --> 00:01:02.226
what changed and whether your skin remains comfortable

00:01:02.139 --> 00:01:02.972
afterwards.

00:01:03.733 --> 00:01:07.789
Burning, stinging or persistent dryness deserves attention.

00:01:08.102 --> 00:01:11.425
Stop using an irritating product and seek professional

00:01:11.325 --> 00:01:12.464
advice when needed.

00:01:12.777 --> 00:01:16.221
The full guide explains damp-skin application and how

00:01:16.121 --> 00:01:17.926
to keep the routine manageable.
