Soni maybe u should keep the area moisturized with some good lotion/cream or vaseline. Try doing it for few days, hope it should work.

soni same problem with me and even on my cheeks too. i think you r right it may be due to soap change.

Could be increased sun exposure. Make sure you drink enough water, moisturize, and use sunscreen.

Whats a good moisturizer for super dry skin?

for some reason Vaseline works best for me but it's lil sticky business

I used to have that problem too... and still do when my skin gets too dry..... all I do is exfoliate that area with any exfoliating face wash and then moisturise... and voila.... dry skin gone..... hope it work for you too....
....oh, and vaseline works too..... just rub a tiny bit into your skin and it'll keep the area moisturised and soft......

vaseline works well, but I normally use jasmine oil to massage my face when its dry. It moisturises it and once washed off leaves the skin feeling so smooth and relaxed.
