I've always had dry skin all my life, but now that I'm going through menopause in my 50's it's worse. I stumbled upon something that helped. I have yeast issues so I avoid fruit because the sugars in them make it worse. So when I got the flu about 2 years ago I searched the internet for info on foods that have alot of vitamin C. Hibiscus Tea popped up in that search as being high in vitamin C and my local store had it in stock! I only drank 1 cup of it a day, and after some time, I noticed that my skin both face and body wasn't as dry anymore. In fact, I could skip a day putting body and face lotion on after my daily shower and I could never do that before!
After my flu was gone I stopped drinking the Hibiscus tea and my skin went back to being dry again sometime after that. So I went back to drinking 1 cup a day and my skin became less dry again. No doubt about it now, it really does help my dry skin.
Word of CAUTION: Hibiscus in general can cause low blood pressure and diuretic effects. It can also cause an imbalance of hormonal levels in the body. This is because of the presence of phytoestrogen which is a plant based estrogen naturally present in Hibiscus.
