Dry skin requires proper care. Permanently dry skin also requires the diagnosis of the cause of this problem – it can be the result of serious diseases. If it is only a beauty defect, then it should be properly moistened and lubricated with cosmetic preparations.
Causes of dry skin
Dry skin can simply be a beauty defect. This type of skin is dull, rough to the touch, sometimes peels off, and becomes taut and tight after washing. Usually this type of skin is thin, sometimes so thin that blood vessels can see through it. It also ages faster, with mimic wrinkles and crow’s feet.
Dry skin is rarely a congenital problem. Most often, its dryness appears with age, especially in women. After menopause, women’s skin becomes thinner and dry. This applies not only to the skin of the face, neck and hands, but also to intimate places. The reduction in the concentration of certain hormones in the blood is responsible for this problem. A similar problem also applies to pregnant women.

At Medonet Market you can buy cosmetics from the face serums category that have a natural composition, deeply moisturize, nourish and help regenerate dry skin. See the offer of face serum. Complementary use the Carota Cream for dry and normal skin.
The cause of the dry skin problem may be damage to the epidermal lipid layerwhich causes the moisture to escape faster from the skin. This can happen due to exposure to cold or hot air and sunlight. It is worth ensuring the right air humidity in the apartment, e.g. by using humidifiers. Get the Vitammy Mist Therapeutic Steam Humidifier now at a promotional price on Medonet Market.
Dry skin can also be the result of improper care, reduced sebum production for various reasons, and taking certain medications, especially those that regulate blood pressure, because they reduce the water content of the skin.
Dry skin is also a problem that occurs in seniors – the skin’s ability to produce lipids decreases with age. The cream suitable for the care of the delicate skin of the elderly is offered by the Cannaderm brand. We also recommend White Kaolinite Clay for skin and hair care, which can be added to the bath. It inhibits aging processes and perfectly moisturizes the skin, protecting it against irritation.
Also, staying in an air-conditioned or heated room can make your skin dry. In places with air conditioning or radiators, the air humidity is lower by about 45%, which adversely affects the skin’s hydration and condition.
When you often stay in air-conditioned or heated rooms, try a cream for the care of dry and sensitive skin and a delicate foam for washing dry skin. Thanks to the content of natural active ingredients, the products contribute to the improvement of the skin condition and its proper hydration.
However, dry skin can also be a sign of serious illness such as diabetes or thyroid problems. One of the symptoms of hypothyroidism is dry, sallow skin that is prone to peeling. On the knees, elbows and feet, it becomes very dry and darkens – requires constant moisturizing and softening, otherwise it will start to crack, leading to painful ailments and inflammation.
The cause of dry skin may also be insufficient hydration of the body. The lips then become chapped and the skin under the eyes dark and tired.
If you have dry or dry skin, you need strong hydration, which is provided by the Orientana care cream for problem skin. It is worth using it in combination with the highly moisturizing natural essence of Orientana for problem skin.
Types of dry skin
Dry skin is a very general name; There are specific types of dry skin hidden underneath it.
The first is dry skin. It is characterized by roughness and a matte color, it is thin and tight, ages quickly. Very dry skin is not only tight and tense, but also chapped. It is usually flaky and itchy. For its care, we recommend Tadé Pays du Levant preparations and accessories.
Dry, sensitive skin is thin, tight and, additionally, hypersensitive to touch.

You can also distinguish dry, degreased skin – its dryness is caused by a reduction in the amount of sebum and dry, dehydrated skin – its dryness is caused by disorders in the secretion of sweat and a deficiency of the natural moisturizing factor. To regenerate dehydrated skin, use Regenerace cream with clove extract and hemp oil. The product creates a protective barrier against the negative influence of external factors and normalizes the metabolic processes of epidermal cells.
Cream ointment with propolis available on Medonet Market will help to maintain proper hydration of the skin. We also recommend the Comfortable HYDRA ESSENCE Mask Moisturizing and protecting Sensilis in the form of a cream-gel moisturizing and soothing mask.
