Skin dehydration is a common skin condition characterised by a lack of moisture, often resulting in a sensation of skin tightness, flakiness, and discomfort. Proper skin care for dehydrated skin is essential to alleviate these symptoms and to achieve a healthy, balanced complexion. When treating dehydrated skin, it's crucial to use the right skin care products for dry skin that specifically cater to its unique needs. The SkinCeuticals Hydrating B5 serum is a great choice as it combines panthenol with skin quenching hyaluronic acid to impart instant and long-lasting hydration. Similarly, a hydrating cream like Ultraceuticals Ultra Moisturiser Cream rapidly replenishes the skin to leave it hydrated and comfortable.

For effective dry skin care, incorporating hydrating skin care products is essential. Look for moisturisers specially formulated for dehydrated skin, as they contain ingredients that help retain moisture and improve the skin's barrier function to prevent future moisture loss. Hydrating cleansers for dry skin are also beneficial, as they purify the skin without stripping it of natural oils. Our extensive range of hydrating skincare allows you to create the ideal homecare regimen to effectively moisturise and replenish your skin.

Dry Skin Care

Ever asked yourself “why is my skin so dry even when I moisturize?" Sometimes, environmental factors such as air-conditioning, lifestyle choices, or using the wrong products can contribute to persistent dryness. Assessing these factors can help improve the effectiveness of your skin care routine to in turn select the right skincare to hydrate, balance and soothe dehydrated skin. If your skin is suffering dehydration in addition to feeling dry from a lack of natural oil, hydrating skin oils are a great choice to replenish and balance the skin.

How to Treat Dry Skin Around the Eyes

When treating dry skin around the eyes, we recommend applying a gentle eye cream specifically designed for this delicate area after cleansing, as this skin is finer and more delicate in nature. Applying a hydrating eye mask weekly can help rejuvenate and nourish the skin around the eyes to further elevate moisture levels. Try the Ahava Dead Sea Osmoter Eye Mask or the Intraceuticals Rejuvenate Eye Mask to instantly plump, hydrate and smooth the eye area with additional long lasting moisturisation.

Is Niacinamide Good for Dry Skin?

Niacinamide & vitamin B are popular skincare ingredients and are indeed good for dry skin. Not only does vitamin B help to strengthen and reinforce the skin's barrier function, but also aids in moisture retention, promoting a more hydrated and plump complexion. If your skin is dehydrated and dry, a combination of skincare containing vitamin B, hyaluronic acid and ceramides is a great choice to deeply moisturise and replenish the skin for long lasting hydration.

Why is My Skin So Dry Even When I Moisturise?

A well-rounded skincare routine with hydrating products is essential to combat dehydrated skin and maintain a healthy, moisturised complexion. If your skin feels tight, irritated or dry after applying your moisturiser, there could be a number of factors causing this sensation. Firstly, check the cleanser you are using is suitable for dehydrated skin. Cream & milk cleansers make an ideal choice for dry, dehydrated skin types as they help to nourish the skin as they cleanse, without disturbing the skin’s natural oil balance. If you are using a gel & foaming cleanser, it may be stripping too much oil from the skin. The next step is to ensure you are applying a hydrating face serum like the Alpha-H Hyaluronic 8 Super Serum. This helps to quench thirsty skin and enhance the skin’s absorption of your moisturiser when applied over the top. And lastly, ensure you are drinking close to three litres of filtered water each day to keep your body and cells hydrated from the inside out. Your skin will glow with hydration and vitality.
