Beauty Essentials For Dry Skin
To combat dry skin, you'll need to include ingredients that promote moisture in your daily skincare routine.
There are several hero ingredients to keep in mind when it comes to dry skin. Products containing ingredients like glycerin, natural oils, ceramide and hyaluronic acid will give your skin all the moisture and hydration it needs.
CLEANSE
Cleanse with products that are gentle, not drying and fragrance-free.Tip: For your skin type, opt for gel or cream cleansers, as foamy cleansers can be drying for your skin.
EXFOLIATE
Removing dead skin cells is key when it comes to combating dry skin. Pick a gentle scrub containing a glycolic or lactic acid to remove dead skin cells and allow your serums and creams to penetrate the skin effectively.Tip: For severely dry skin, try a wet facecloth for gentle buffing.
TONE
Toning your skin after cleansing helps to tighten and close pores. We recommend toners with soothing and hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid, glycerin, vitamin E and aloe vera.Tip: Opt for alcohol-free toner to help restore your skin pH levels.
TREAT
Antioxidant serums with Vitamin C will help reduce dark spots, increase your skin's collagen, help with hyperpigmentation and brighten your complexion.Treatment oils will give your skin an extra hydration boost and prevent further dryness. Try products that contain hyaluronic acid, which helps to seal in the moisture and hydrate the skin.
MOISTURISE
Applying moisturiser day and night will help with long-lasting hydration and repair your skin’s natural barrier.Tip: Look for a moisturiser with active ingredients like ceramides and hyaluronic acid that help to protect the skin’s barrier.
LIP BALM
Dryness can also affect the lips. To help nourish dry or chapped lips, choose hydrating lip balms that keep lips soft and well-protected.
