Dry skin or dehydrated skin? The dos and don'ts
When skin is uncomfortable, tight or even flaky, we tend to shorten the diagnosis: we have dry skin and we are determined to treat it as such. However, did you know thatthere is a big difference between dry skin and dehydrated skin ? The latter is much more often encountered and is in reality, a temporary phenomenon ... Small overview to finally understand and solve your beauty problem.
Dry skin
It is a skin that plays thrifty because it does not produce enough fat. We all have a protective barrier (the famous hydrolipidic film), which, when it is altered or even non-existent for dry skin, also leads to a loss of water. Result, we can also have a dry skin AND which also suffers from dehydration ! In order to defend themselves, dry skins can also tend to thicken, a natural phenomenon to compensate for this famous missing or seriously damaged shield.
I have dry skin if:
- Since I was small I have always complained of feeling that my skin was tight.
- I’m lucky and have almost invisible pores.
- My complexion is often dull.
- My skin is fine, rough and rarely feels soft?
- I dread the winter as I always have dry patches.
Le mot d'ordre : recharger sa peau en nutriments
1 à 2 fois par semaine, pour nourrir intensément, on applique le masque hydratant Moisturising Mask Susanne Kaufmann. Véritable bouclier contre la déshydratation, il apporte une nutrition longue durée pour une peau souple, rebondie et un teint frais et lumineux. Les peaux les plus sèches pourront même l’appliquer en crème de nuit pour une peau intensément nourrie.
Et pour aller plus loin et décupler les effets de sa routine, on mise sur une cure de L’Essentiel Peau Combeau : un complément alimentaire universel ert efficace, riche en acide hyaluronique et Vitamine C, pour révéler la beauté naturelle de chaque peau.
Les gestes à éviter que l'on ait la peau sèche ou déshydratée
We flee the heating (especially when it is pushed to its maximum), air conditioning and (as much as possible) pollution!
We avoid showers or baths that are too hotwhich literally melt our hydrolipidic film.
On préserve sa barrière de surface en évitant de se laver le visage chaque matin. On opte plutôt pour un pschitt de lotion comme la Le Beau Reset Brume Florale Apaisante Ulé.
We banish complexion products based on denatured alcohol which dry out the skin, and prefer those that include care ingredients in their formulation, such as the True Skin Foundation Serum IliaTrue Skin Foundation Serum, formulated with a moisturizing aloe vera base.
