Dehydrated Skin
Does your skin show clear signs of lacking moisture? Dehydrated skin requires both preventive and soothing care, and here we present our best recommendations for products to treat dehydrated skin.
Typical Symptoms of Dehydrated Skin
Dehydrated skin feels tight and dry because it lacks moisture. It often lacks radiance and elasticity, and fine lines and wrinkles may become more pronounced.
The skin may feel especially dry after a shower, where makeup application can become difficult as products may clump in the skin’s fine lines.
How Does Dehydrated Skin Develop?
Dehydrated skin can be caused by both genetic factors and external factors such as wind, weather, and seasonal changes.
Many experience an imbalance in the skin’s moisture levels during the winter months, when we alternate between being outdoors in the cold and indoors where the heating is typically turned up. These constant temperature and humidity fluctuations disrupt the skin’s natural processes, making it more prone to dehydration.
However, you might also be genetically predisposed to dehydrated skin and prone to dryness year-round. This can happen if your skin is very thin and thus less able to retain moisture compared to individuals with thicker skin. As the skin thins with age, you may start to notice dehydration as you get older, as the skin gradually loses its ability to maintain moisture balance.
How to Care for Dehydrated Skin on the Face?
You can restore the moisture levels of your skin by using the right products for treating dehydrated skin. Focus on both moisturizing your skin and understanding the underlying causes of dehydration so that you can potentially prevent it. Ensure you have a good skincare routine, adding moisture to your skin multiple times a day. Look for products that:
- Focus on effective hydration.
- Provide moisture all day or night long.
- Have a suitable consistency for the season – opt for a lighter cream in the summer and a richer cream in the winter.
Also, be gentle when removing your makeup, and avoid harsh, drying products. Use sunscreen daily all year round to protect your skin and prevent further dehydration.
The Best Ingredients for Dehydrated Skin
- Snail Mucin – One of the most potent ingredients found in Korean skincare. It contains natural peptides, hyaluronic acid, and naturally occurring glycolic acid. It stimulates collagen synthesis to strengthen, firm, and improve skin resilience.
- Centella Asiatica – Studies have shown that Centella Asiatica improves skin hydration by 25%. It has the ability to bind water in an occlusive layer, reducing transepidermal water loss.
- Ceramides – They maintain moisture levels in your skin, protect it from irritation and dryness, and create a protective skin barrier. This ingredient helps the skin trap and bind moisture, preventing water loss and dehydration.
- Beta Glucan – An excellent ingredient to minimize redness and other signs of sensitive skin. Its antioxidant properties help reduce signs of aging/sun damage, diminish wrinkles, and even skin tone. Beta-glucan also offers moisturizing benefits.
- Hyaluronic Acid – Capable of holding up to 1,000 times its weight in water, this powerful humectant attracts and maintains moisture in the skin. It also promotes blood circulation and nutrient absorption. Hyaluronic acid in serums or creams works best when applied to damp skin, locking in the moisture.
