A caring advisor for dry skin

How do I know, if I have dry skin?

Choosing the right skin care products according to your skin can be difficult if you are uncertain about your skin type. Knowledge about your skin type is the baseline for all skin care advice following. Dry skin will naturally produce less sebum than other skin types making your skin dry, rough, and sometimes flaky. Experiencing dryness might also make your skin feel irritated and less elastic.

Also, remember there are nuances when talking about skin type. Determining your skin type might not be as straightforward as making a final conclusion about you having dry skin. You should always consider the range of concerns also affecting your skin type. Those concerns include aged skin, sun-damaged skin, genetic predisposition, psoriasis, eczema and so forward.

How do I care for dry skin?

Dry skin indicates your skin’s moisture barrier is out of balance. A rich serum or moisture with soothing and hydrating ingredients is ideal for your skin type. Our Hydrating Serum (link) will hydrate every three layers of your skin allowing it to retain moisture and bringing the skin barrier back in balance. Follow up by using a moisturiser. A gentle exfoliator is also a way to care for your skin. Dry skin tends to be flaky whereas exfoliating the skin will help you get rid of the dead skin cells before applying serum and moisture. Our Cleansing Gel is a gentle cleanser and exfoliator (link).

Another way to care for your skin is to avoid long, hot showers that will dry out your skin even more. Most importantly, listen to your skin.
