Possible dry skin: Have you changed any beauty products,cleansers or perhaps clothing or sheets that are new? You may have developed an allergy or you may simply have a dry skin condition. First try using an emollient moisturizer at least 2 times a day for a week. If no improvement consider consulting a dermatologist.
