Understanding dry skin: causes and mechanisms

Before choosing your skincare products, it is essential to understand what characterizes dry skin.

A lipid deficiency

Dry skin is characterized by a lack of lipids, essential for maintaining the skin barrier.

Consequences:

  • water loss
  • skin fragility
  • tightness.

Insufficient hydration

Dry skin also lacks water, partly due to the decrease in Hyaluronic Acid.

👉 Result:

  • less supple skin
  • appearance of fine lines
  • duller complexion.

An altered skin barrier

When the skin barrier is weakened:

  • the skin dehydrates more quickly
  • it becomes more sensitive
  • it is less resistant to external aggressions.

Why adopt a specific routine for dry skin?

Restore daily comfort

A suitable routine allows to:

  • immediately soothe the skin
  • reduce feelings of discomfort
  • improve skin quality.

Prevent skin ageing

Dry skin shows signs of ageing more quickly.

👉 By reinforcing hydration and nourishment, we limit:

  • the appearance of fine lines
  • loss of suppleness
  • premature ageing
 

Essential natural skincare for dry skin

Intensely hydrate the skin

Hydration is the first step.

Recommended active ingredients:

  • hyaluronic acid to capture water
  • Aloe vera to hydrate and soothe.

👉 Good hydration helps to smooth dehydration fine lines.


Nourish with vegetable oils

Nourishment is essential to compensate for the lack of lipids.

Among the key active ingredients:

  • natural oils rich in fatty acids
  • prickly pear seed oil to nourish and protect.

👉 These oils help restore the skin barrier
