Do you exfoliate and moisturise regularly? This cold weather and central heating season really buggers up my skin. I end up with random patches of flakey dry skin similar to what you have. I use moisturiser like mad and when I’m in the shower I get a hot flannel and lightly scrub at my face to get the dead shit off. Usually works (although I end up looking red for half an hour!) then i slap abit of coconut oil on the worst affected areas. Xx

I get this most winters, usually both eyebrows. I think it is dandruff..just dry skin where hair is. I usually scrape the skin off with a flannel and then put some vaseline on it.

I do use an exfoliating scrub and a regular moisturiser but I subscribe to a beauty box so I don't use a consistent brand, would this make a difference?

I get psoriasis on my scalp, and if it's bad it goes to my eyebrows. It's flaky and scaly on top and the skin is red and slightly swollen underneath (attractive, I know!). It usually takes steroids to clear it, so might be worth seeing your GP about it? I get it along my hairline too, thought it was just dandruff to start off with, so it's not always obvious if you've not suffered from it before.
