iHello itchyfleas,

Morning after pill is a method of emergency contraception, there are many combinations of drugs available which are used for this purpose.
This kind of drugs consist of hormones in different proportions which are normally secreted in body. So some drugs may cause skin dryness. It is normal and it will revert back on its own.

Hope I explained your doubt
