what is"dry"?

To determine whether or not your skin is dry as well as the degree of dryness, check the following guidelines:

Skin Feel

Dry skin feels tight, especially after showering or bathing. You may experience mild to moderate itching. Severe itching indicates very dry skin.

Appearance

Dry skin often has visible fine lines or cracks, and skin can appear shrunken or dehydrated. The degree of flaking, scaling and peeling can be slight (dry) to severe (very dry). You may also notice some redness.

Texture

Dry skin will feel rough rather than smooth. Very dry skin feels extremely rough, and can be accompanied by extremely dry patches and/or eczema.
