Why your skin feels tight after a shower
Your body has fewer oil glands than your face. Here’s what that means for your shower.

Your body skin has fewer oil glands than your face. That’s one reason it can feel dry, tight or flaky after showering, especially in air-conditioned rooms or the winter months.
Small changes that help
- Keep the water warm rather than hot.
- Keep showers short and unhurried.
- Pat skin dry instead of rubbing.
- Choose a cleanser made for skin that feels tight.
