Dry skin can be difficult to maintain because it lacks natural moisturizing oils. However, with the right skin routine for dry sensitive skin and products, you can revitalize your skin and restore its health and moisture. In this blog, we will look at the causes and symptoms of dry skin and offer a complete routine kit from Bioderma Atoderm to help you attain supple, dewy skin.
What is dry skin?
Dry skin is distinguished by a sebum deficiency, the skin's natural moisturizer. The skin's protective barrier is damaged when there is insufficient sebum, resulting in moisture loss along with various skin problems.
Symptoms to Determine if You Have Dry Skin:
- Skin flakes: Dry skin often seems flaky, similar to dandruff. The dry skin texture is rough and dry to the touch.
- Tightness and discomfort after washing: As the moisture is stripped away, dry skin feels rough and itchy.
- Dullness: Dry skin lacks radiance and appears dull, as it lacks the natural glow of healthy skin.
- Itching and redness: Dry skin is prone to itching, red patches, and irritation.
- Premature wrinkles: Dry skin develops wrinkles faster than other skin types, emphasizing the importance of regular hydration and maintenance.
- Small pores: Dry skin often has small pores that are less noticeable than oily skin.
Wondering why you have these symptoms? It's because your skin is damaged. Our skin has a protective barrier that acts as a shield. It helps keep moisture within while protecting against germs, pollution, and other potentially harmful substances.
When this protective barrier weakens, moisture evaporates quickly. Simply adding moisture will not solve the problem because it will evaporate through the damaged areas. You will need a skin routine for dry sensitive skin to combat dryness.
Several factors can compromise your skin's protective barrier, including:
- Central air conditioning or heating: These artificial climate control systems can cause your skin to lose its natural moisture and become dry.
- Cold and humid weather: Difficult weather conditions such as cold winds and high humidity can destroy the protective barrier and induce moisture loss.
- Genes: Some people may inherit dry skin, which means their skin's barrier is genetically thin, making them more prone to dryness.
- Harsh and irritating skin care products: Products with harsh chemicals and abrasive substances may damage your skin's protective layer, leaving it vulnerable to dryness.
- Unprotected sun exposure: Excessive sun exposure without protection can compromise your skin's barrier, increasing moisture loss and dryness. To prevent sun damage, you can use Bioderma Photoderm sunscreens, formulated for dry skin.
Knowing what harms your skin's protective barrier allows you to follow a dry skin routine. You can help your skin regain moisture and feel more hydrated by taking care of dryness and your skin. To effectively cure dry skin, you must follow a skin routine for dry sensitive skin.
