Dull and Dry skin

Ready to deal with dry, dehydrated skin gently?

Have you ever felt your skin getting irritated or uncomfortably stretchy in winter? That's probably because of two reasons - dry or dehydrated skin.

Dry skin is your skin type where your skin produces less sebum than required to keep your skin moisturized throughout the day. Whereas dehydrated skin is when your skin fails to retain moisture.

Either of these causes your skin to scale, itch, or crack. In addition to usual discomfort, it also damages the tone and texture of your skin. Dryness not only affects the look of your skin but it also ruins your makeup routine.

Did you know that dryness tends to cause acne? Because acne occurs at the sight of inflammation as well. And dry, dehydrated skin is prone to inflammation.

Factors that might be causing dry and dull skin

Harsh chemicals - some products, due to their alcohol content give you a clean feel right after usage. But that has more to do with the property of alcohol to dehydrate your skin. Then some products are way too harsh and cleanse your skin of essential oils.

Naturally dry skin - maybe you have a dry skin type. In this case, your skin is lacking in keeping itself moisturized for longer. Or maybe your skin is just dehydrated due to medication, weather conditions, or the products you use - so it is unable to retain moisture like its usual self.

Season - winter causes your skin to dehydrate easily because of a lack of humidity. It makes dry skin even worse by stripping your skin of whatever hydration it is getting.

Water temperature - hot water causes your pores to open up and lose moisture. Washing your face with hot water leads to dehydrated skin. Frequent washing also causes your skin to dry.

Things you can do to prevent dry and dull skin

Pat, don't rub - rubbing your skin with towel after every face wash causes it to dehydrate quicker. It also strips your skin of essential oils.

Mind the water temperature - make sure that you wash your face with either lukewarm water or cold water.

Go for moisturizing products - products that moisturize your skin while doing their job are a good choice. Also, make sure that you apply any moisturizing products while your skin is still damp.
