The hot water is breaking down the oils in your skin. Dry skin isn’t just about water, it’s about oil, because oils are what keep the water in your skin from easily evaporating into the environment. That’s why lotions help: they are just artificial, nice-smelling oils you use to replace the natural ones after washing.
