Pro tips for extremely dry skin when your skin feels tight no matter what you do

You know those times when your skin feels so tight it feels like it's going to tear, no matter what you do? Especially in winter or during the change of seasons, even if you apply a moisturizer, the relief is only temporary, and the tightness returns quickly after a short while. This is the method I use in those moments. First, I moisturize the areas where I feel the tightness. Then, I apply a thin layer of Vaseline over them. Vaseline acts as a seal to prevent moisture from evaporating, so the skin feels comfortable and doesn't feel tight.

However, if you apply it all over your face, it feels a bit stuffy, even for dry skin. It also feels sticky and uncomfortable when sleeping. I recommend applying it only to areas where you feel tightness due to dryness. My eye area and upper cheeks are very dry and tight, so I only apply a thin layer of Vaseline to those spots.

If your face feels tight no matter what you do because it is dry, try using Vaseline.
