Home remedies for dry skin are much sought after these days because people are fed up with toxic chemicals in our skin care products. Many cheap commercial drug-store type moisturizers are loaded with fragrances, additives, and mineral oil – all which destroy the skin’s pH balance. Healthy skin should have a pH that ranges from 4.2 to 6.5. A pH balance higher or lower than this can upset the acid mantle which is the protective skin barrier protecting the skin from environmental elements like bacteria, wind, dehydration, etc.
