Hair follicles supply oil to the surrounding skin to keep it moisturized. These hair follicles can stop supplying oil and cause dryness of the skin from certain conditions.
It is important, during sex and masturbation use a water-base lubricant that is safe for your penis to keep your penis from becoming dry.
Sometimes dryness around a hair follicle is usually from irritation. It is seen often in people with dry skin and is called keratosis pilaris. The skin feels rough. Using a moisturizing lotion such as Ammonium Lactate 12% may help.
The dryness also may be caused by alkalies, such as those found in soaps and washing powders.
After sex and masturbation, clean your penis skin gently with a mild, non-drying soap (such as Dove, Neutrogena, or Basics) or no soap, water only.
Use a moisturizing lotion after your bath or shower.
