I would try a moisturizer. I also have dry skin problems and my dermatologist recommended CeraVe moisturizer. I have found it to work very well, and they also have a great moisturizing cleanser. You can find them at a drugstore like CVS or Walgreens:)

Don't use things that burn! If it has alcohol and thats affecting you, stop using it. Use a face wash with salicylic acid, morning and night, and follow it with an oil free moisturizer like Aveeno or Neutrogena in the morning. At night follow it with a thicker cream like Korres Balancing Pomegranate Moisturizer. That should help, as a start. If you want a blemish treatment, try Burt's Bees Blemish Stick (which is diluted tea tree oil). Try to find a routine that works for you, and stick to it :)

Using a home made mask would maybe be good for the hydrating of your skin? One I use you mix avocado, Greek yoghurt, honey, olive oil and lemon juice and leave on for 20 minutes or so. Wash off with warm water and use an oil free moisturiser :) Hope this helps. :)

I agree with Taylor! I love CeraVes products, since your skin is dry, try the CeraVe hydrating cleanser, if it's too greasy for you, return it, and switch to the foaming cleanser. They're both super gentle. Also try the CeraVe moisturizing cream (in the tub) it's amazing for dry skin, and doesn't leave you greasy :)

I used to be a swimmer and had acne and dry skin when I was in high school. Sounds strange but you should try applying zinc to your face to create a barrier between your skin and the chlorine. It helped my skin become less irritated and dry.

Proactive is the best in my opinion because one of the many products if proactive is in a blue bottle and it's a wash that protects you from things such as chlorine. Hope this helped!

Then maybe you should bring a facial cleanser to school and use it after you swim.
