Dry skin care

• thin and tender;

• pores are small or not visible at all;

• sebum secretion is reduced;

• no oily sheen;

• often worried about the feeling of tightness;

• peeling appears.

• Wrong care: forgot to wash off makeup at night, and apply a moisturizer in the morning, and the skin responds with dryness or peeling.

• Use of unsuitable cosmetics: cosmetics addressed to a different skin type can be one of the causes of dryness.

• Lifestyle: late lights out, early rises, lack of sleep, alcohol abuse, nicotine abuse, fatty and spicy foods, and especially fast food – all this affects the condition of the skin.

• Genetic predisposition: if your mother or grandmother has a tendency to dryness, alas, you are unlikely to avoid this fate. There is only one way out – to constantly care for the skin.

• Skin reaction to food and drugs: Some foods, medicines, and drinks may not be “yours” and cause dryness. It is worth getting to the bottom of the truth and excluding a potential provocateur from your life.

3. Laser biorevitalization: the meaning of the procedure is that hyaluronic acid is administered through laser radiation, and not through injections. Usually, a course of three procedures is required at intervals of a week, and then, for prevention, once a month.

4. Mesotherapy – a widely used method of injecting natural preparations that have a rejuvenating effect.

• In winter, cosmetologists recommend paying attention to intensely moisturizing creams with a denser texture. In the morning, you can add a couple of drops of moisturizing or regenerating serum to the cream to protect thin skin from irritation.

• Don’t forget to use a night cream or concentrate. During the night, the skin needs to restore the resources spent during the day.

• Twice a week, replace your night cream with a leave-in hydrating or nourishing mask. In the morning, the skin will become soft and supple. If there is no special equipment at hand, apply a regular mask, after 15 minutes carefully remove the excess with a cotton pad, and let the residue soak in.

• Do not abuse scrubs and peels. In the cold season, you can arrange home cleansing rituals no more than once a week. Choose soft products without harsh abrasive particles.

• Master the technique of multimasking. Apply a moisturizing mask to dry areas of the face, and cleansing (for example, with clay) on those that sin with oily sheen and inflammation. The procedure can be repeated up to three times a week.

• Cleansing tonics and gels containing alcohol or acids are contraindicated for you, even soft ones like fruit and glycolic.

• Creams should contain as many nutrients and oils as possible, which will retain moisture in the dermis throughout the day.

• Neglecting a night cream is a real beauty crime. Two or three times a week, you can replace it with a nightly indelible mask.

• In creams, look for ceramides and lipid-restoring components – they are now your best friends.

• But it is better to exclude products with retinol and its derivatives from the beauty ritual.
