Water is an essential component of the skin. Considering that the level of skin hydration is not constant (it is influenced by external factors, natural evaporation, etc.), it is important to provide the skin with the necessary amount of moisture daily.
Signs of dehydrated skin
Dehydration of the skin is a common problem. How to understand that the skin is dehydrated?
This condition manifests itself in different ways:
- The skin loses elasticity.
- There is a feeling of tightness.
- She looks dull, does not shine with health and beauty.
- You feel discomfort, and wrinkles appear on the skin from lack of moisture.
Dry or dehydrated skin – what’s the difference?
The terms “dry” and “dehydrated skin” are often considered synonymous. Actually it is not. Any type of skin can become dehydrated, i.e. dry dehydrated skin, oily dehydrated skin, normal dehydrated skin and combination dehydrated skin.
It is important to remember that dry skin type is a permanent condition that a person is born with. And dehydration is a temporary condition that can be caused by improper care, for example, the abuse of scrubs, alcohol lotions, or products with an acid in the composition.
Causes of dehydration of the skin
The cause of skin dehydration is a change in the protective function, which may have external causes (environmental factors, etc.) or be caused by endogenous changes (problems with skin components, damage to the hydrolipid film).
Dehydrated skin care
What to do if the skin of the face is dehydrated? Take good care of her! The main goal is to moisturize the skin and try to maintain the required level of moisture in the future.
To prevent dehydration or its development, you must do the following daily:
- The first stage is cleansing. Remove make-up carefully so as not to damage the epidermis. The ideal choice for this is a special make-up remover milk or La Roche-Posay Micellar Cleansing Gel.
Cleanses, softens and moisturizes the skin while respecting the physiological pH level. Suitable for daily use.
