Dry/Dehydrated Sensitive Skin

  • Dehydration is a widely misunderstood skin condition that often is inadequately treated because of the difficulty in differentiating between dehydrated skin and dry skin. When the skin does not have enough moisture, or water, it is dehydrated. When the skin lacks lipids, or oils, it is dry. It is important to recognise that even oily skin can be dehydrated.
  • Dehydration will make the skin appear thin and transparent, or like a parchment with fine lines. It may flake or chap easily, have red or pink patches, and reacts to external factors (weather, pollution etc). In certain cases, small capillaries may be seen near the surface. A person may feel a constant pulling sensation across the face. When touched, the skin may be rough, rigid and extra-sensitive.
  • A good moisturiser is an essential prerequisite for healthy skin.

When the skin is faced with dehydration the process of cellular renewal is altered. Make sure that the moisturiser also is rich in essential fatty acids which will help regenerate and reinforce the cell’s membrane.
A healthy skin is one that is well balanced with water and lipids.
