Hi! Nice to meet you 
I think I know what you mean, I have struggled with very dry skin, particularly on my face and at times it hadn't mattered how much I moisturised, it still peeled and flaked and I got well meaning advice from friends who obviously thought I hadn't bothered. I find it much worse after a bath or shower, even though I don't wash my face with any soap or anything. It's not so bad at the moment, as long as I get some on my face as soon as I step out of the shower. In the winter I often get cracked lips and round my nose and under my earlobes etc and I believe it must all be down to psoriasis.
