Wind, cold, climate or heat, unsuitable products, hormonal changes, etc. the causes of dehydrated skin are numerous, and its effects are visible. Thanks to a proper routine and products, it is possible to give the skin a more supple appearance.
Did you know that it was possible to have oily, dehydrated skin at the same time? Yes: all skin types (oily, dry, combination, etc.) can be affected by dehydration. It can be caused by harsh weather or overheated environment; hormonal changes, hygiene products or harsh skincare... and that can be seen and felt: dehydrated skin is dull, rough, sensitive and tight.
The good news is that this state is temporary and specific care exists to meet the particular needs of dehydrated skin. These products create both water and oil-free skin to retain it in the epidermis and limit its evaporation.
My skin is not dry from nature, but sometimes it feels tight. In this case, I apply a hydrating serum morning and evening
Serum, scrub and mask to properly hydrate your face
For intensely and long-lasting hydrated skin, a single cream can not always suffocate: it sometimes needs a little boost, as well as its daily care. After gentle cleansing with lukewarm water (not all hot, too harsh for your skin!) and before you apply your treatment, opt for a hydrating serum. This concentrate of active ingredients boosts the hydrating action of the skin care and helps restore the skin’s softness, suppleness, comfort and luminosity.
Two to three times a week, you can also treat your skin with an intense moisture treatment just before bed: apply a generous layer of moisturizing mask, leave on for 10-15 min, then remove excess with a tissue and leave on overnight.
Finally, you don’t have the benefits of exfoliating your skin is dehydrated. Exfoliating once a week will remove dead skin cells and enhance the effectiveness of your skincare products.
Properly moisturize your face, depending on your skin type
Dehydrated skin has specific needs but depends on your skin type. We'll help you make sense of it.
A fluid texture for normal, combination and oily skin
Your dehydrated skin is thirsty and you want to limit the use of greasy substances to avoid shine and allow your make-up to last? So choose a moisturizing emulsion with a fluid texture to moisturize your face lightly.
Creamy texture for dry to very dry skin
If, in addition to regular dehydration, the skin on your face usually feels dry or very dry, it’s best to choose a cream with a rich, creamy texture. It will deeply nourish your facial skin, which will quickly restore moisture and comfort.
