Properly hydrated skin is beautiful: soft and smooth. But dehydrated skin — also known as dry skin, xerosis, and winter itch — is dull and rough. Not only can it look awful — especially if it leads to severe flaking, deep cracks, or inflamed pink or red patches — but it can also feel awful, especially if it causes such intense itching that you feel clad head to toe in wool.

What Causes It? 
Oily skin is caused by glands that produce too much oil, or sebum. Who has oily skin? Mostly people whose ancestors had it too, since the trait is hereditary. Hormonal fluctuations (especially during puberty, pregnancy, and menopause) also play a role, as oil glands switch into overdrive during those times and produce excess sebum, especially in the T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin areas). This not only creates an oil slick but can also block pores and cause acne. Birth control pills can also exacerbate oily skin problems, although some pills can actually help the situation. (Men may also be affected by hormonal changes, although to a much lesser degree.) And while you may think that what you eat affects your complexion, experts say diet isn’t a key factor at all — so go ahead and have that slice of pizza!

Don’t you hate when you wake up in the morning and see a gigantic pimple has sprung to life seemingly overnight, usually on the day you have an important work meeting or an even more important date? While it may seem like the pimple came out of nowhere, that’s not the case. “Acne is a function of how your skin cycles,” says Lance H. Brown, MD, an assistant clinical professor of dermatology at New York University School of Medicine. “Healthy skin sloughs off every three months. When this doesn’t happen properly, your pores become clogged and the oil feeds off the bacteria, creating white heads, blackheads, and pimples.”

Follow these dos and don’ts if you want to get rid of pimples...

A pimple is a swollen elevation on the skin caused by bacteria in a clogged pore. Some causes of clogging include sweat, makeup, and certain face creams. If you have the occasional pimple outbreak, you may want to know how to get rid of a pimple fast.

The first step to get rid of a pimple is to implement a skin-cleansing regimen. Wash your face every day with a simple bar of soap. Soaps like Ivory Soap Bars 3 Pack, $1.49, at Walgreens, are good facial-cleansing soaps. Wash your hands first, and then wash your face using your hands or a very soft cleansing cloth to keep from irritating the skin further. Rinse your skin with lukewarm water. Very hot or cold water just irritates the skin further. Pat your face dry with a clean towel.

Washing your face is a no-brainer, right? Well, not exactly. A recent study by Olay found that only 50 percent of women wash their face regularly. And even if you are among the half that does, most are not using the correct product, rinsing properly, or treating their skin with the TLC it deserves.
