The skin is the most exposed organ to irritants, and when the body recognizes something as foreign, the immune system kicks into action. It produces what is known as antibodies against the foreign bodies (antigens). However, in many situations, the body produces antibodies against its own cells or tissue or components, causing an autoimmune reaction. One such autoimmune reaction is lichen planus, which is a skin rash caused when the body produces antibodies against its own skin or mucous membran...more

Dry skin:

Rinse with warm water and pat your skin dry.
Use a toner to help with that tight and flaky feeling of dehydration.
Avoid toners and makeup that contain alcohol as alcohol-based products have a drying effect on the skin.
Use a cream-based lotion to hydrate your skin and keep it rejuvenated.
