If your skin looks like this, here’s what it really means

While there is no “instant cure,” consistent care can make your skin soft and smooth again:

1. Gently exfoliate:
Use a gentle scrub or a loofah sponge 2 or 3 times a week to remove dead skin cells. Avoid rubbing too hard, as this can worsen blemishes.

2. Moisturize daily:
After showering, apply a lotion with urea, lactic acid, or coconut oil to keep your skin hydrated.

3. Try natural remedies:
Mix honey, sugar, and coconut oil to make a gentle exfoliating paste. Massage gently and rinse with warm water.

4. Warm (not hot) showers:
Hot water can dry out your skin more, so opt for warm showers and mild soap.

5. Be consistent:
It takes time! Regular hydration and exfoliation can diminish blemishes in just a few weeks.
