WHAT IS DRY FACIAL SKIN?
Your dry facial skin needs a lot of attention. It is also referred to as a low-fat dry condition or sebostasis. The cause of dry skin is a greatly reduced production of sebum. This makes the protective hydrolipid film of your skin unstable because the water-binding properties of sebum are missing. This is why your dry skin on your face is often fine-pored, flaky, rough and, above all, thin. This usually makes your skin very sensitive.
Skin condition:
Your facial skin is often tight and has cracked and flaky patches. It is often sensitive and looks porcelain-like.
Skin structure & pores:
The pores of your skin are fine, you hardly have any blackheads, and your facial skin tends to be rough, sometimes cracked and flaky.
COMPLEXION:
Your complexion often appears dull and rather pale.
SPECIAL FEATURE:
Your skin is demanding and needs targeted and, above all, rich support. Protect it from excessive moisture loss by not exposing it to water for too long.
1. Tip: Cleanse your skin only once a day.
Less is definitely more for your skin. Wash your skin only in the evening before going to bed with lukewarm water and the cleansing product of your choice. In the morning, simply cleanse your pores with one of our toners .
2. Tip: Only use lukewarm water.
Water that is too hot damages your skin's natural protective barrier. So don't wash your dry skin with water that is too hot to avoid putting additional strain on it. This applies to your whole body, by the way.
3. Tip: Mix oil into your cream.
Oils that you add to your skincare routine can take over the function of the missing sebum and also form a protective, supple film. Simply mix 2-3 drops of almond oil, for example or argan oil with 1-2 pumps of hyaluronic acid cream medium.
4. Tip: Use sufficient UV protection.
No matter how you react to the sun, UV protection is essential for your facial skin. UV rays reach your skin especially in summer, but also in winter. It is therefore best to always use an SPF of at least 30, like our sunscreen .
WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT DRY SKIN
HOW DO YOU PAMPER YOUR DRY SKIN?
Dry skin on the face is particularly sensitive and thin. There are various external and internal causes that favor this skin type. These include, for example, the weather, diet, a job that involves contact with chemical substances or even skin diseases. Especially with less protected skin, it is important that you pay attention to the active ingredients in your care. Our aloe vera spray, for example, could be a daily companion for you. Spray your face whenever your skin feels particularly flaky or rough. This way you can give it an extra moisture boost.In order to bring your skin back to a balanced state, it is important to replace the missing sebum. Moisturizing face creams like those in our duo are ideal for your dry facial skin. Our targeted routine recommendation will help you to increase the fat content of your skin and prevent it from drying out further.
LEARN MORE ABOUT YOUR SKIN CONDITION.
Do you have dry skin, but it can also be different? For example, is it sometimes very sensitive, irritated or blemished? Every skin type also has a variable skin condition that also affects you. The causes of your skin condition are very diverse. Especially in winter, sebum becomes thicker due to the cold and worsens the condition of your skin even more. Your age also plays an important role in the condition of your skin.
The skin type of dry skin is often confused with the skin condition of dehydrated skin . While dry skin lacks oil, dehydrated skin wants nothing but additional moisture. The noticeable differences are in many cases flaky or itchy patches on the face, which are an indicator of dry skin.
It doesn't matter whether your dry skin is dehydrated, mature, sensitive or blemished. The most important thing is that you choose the right care product.
