We've all had to deal with flaky skin at least once in our lives and we're sure you noticed just how big of a hassle it can prove to be. People often get flaky skin during the winters when the temperatures rob their skin of natural oils and moisture. Instead of trying to hide your skin with makeup or try to fix the problem with basic moisturisers, you should opt for remedies that work. So, if you're looking to get rid of flaky skin, here are some remedies you should opt for.

Aloe vera: Aloe vera has healing and soothing properties that can help moisturise and hydrate your skin. Mix some aloe gel with a little bit of olive oil and apply it to the affected area twice per day. It'll help in ways you couldn't even imagine.

Turmeric: Commonly used for cooking in the Indian household, this spice also has some amazing antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Mix some turmeric powder with some yoghurt and apply it to your face like a pack. Wash it off once it dries and remember to moisturise afterwards.

Jojoba oil: Packed with anti-inflammatory properties, jojoba oil can actually work wonders in getting rid of flaky skin. Apply a thin layer of the oil to your face at least twice daily.
