My skin flakes badly on my forehead I bought a cream from Nivea but it is a tiny bottle and I am kind of on a budget right now. I blew a lot of cash on bills so I need to save the money I have left.When it is finished I want to know how to maintain the flakiness with home remedies does anyone have any? I will include a picture of the cream I recently purchased it was expensive if I didn't spend so much money on bills I would just invest in buying the creams.

First of all, exfoliate the dry skin away. The cream won't do anything if you're applying it to dead skin. You can do an oatmeal scrub, or go to Pinterest for ideas :)

I agree with Hannah. There is this nice moisture mask from the nspa line and you put it on for 10/15 minutes and wash it off,it seriously hydrates the skin!

I use a face brush with my normal cleanser to gently exfoliate then I use a face scrub.

Creams work best eucerin or cetaphil and a little oil applied before cream. Since oil can be expensive you can use baby oil.

After exfoliating you can do some home remedies with things in your kitchen such as honey, any oiks, milk to cleanse, Vaseline etc. you could buy an exfoliating face wash pretty cheap these days which you can use daily to tacky the flaky skin :)

Make your own exfoliating mask. I use brown sugar and coconut oil. It makes my skin smooth and a great lip exfoliator too.
