And what about dehydrated?
With this problem, the owner of any type of skin, both dry and oily, may be encountered. Dehydration cannot be considered a skin type, this state. What are the signs of dehydrated skin?
- Low water content.
- It is possible to develop the state of dehydration on oily skin, it is possible to correct this state, picking up the right care along with your cosmetologist.
- Pores can be both noticeable and very small.
- The skin can be dry and rigid, while the fat shine can manifest itself and appear inflammation, which is usually not observed on dry skin.

Disassemble the care of dry skin
One of the main rules when caring for dry skin is the replenishment of lack of fat and the necessary protection. To solve this problem, we use products containing natural oils, beeswax and ceramic. You can use dense creams that hardly score pores. As for cleansing, it is necessary to avoid hard tools, as well as soft with alcohol content. It is best to choose micellar water or a milk that will not turn the skin into sandpaper with early wrinkles.
Experts advise you to choose a multistage care for dry skin, suggest a moisturizing emulsion, serum and then cream. Thus, the skin will be better protected from the external effect of the aggressive environment. In addition, despite the dry type, it needs exfoliating, but forget about the scrub, your option is a light surface peeling. And last - on the packaging of your ideal agent always stands the mark "Dry Skin".
As you can see, competent care will not even make the most dry skin look bad. Now let's see how to cope the problem of skin dehydration.
Unlike dry skin products that contain nutrient components, owners of dehydrated skin should pay attention to the means with a "moisturizing" mark. As part of such a means there is glycerin, hyaluronic acid, propylene glycol, as well as chitosan.
As for creams, try to pick up the composition that does not include mineral oils, it is best to give preference to serums and light emulsions, especially if we are talking about fatty dehydrated skin.
An important rule - after washing, we apply a tonic immediately, after which we turn to the further stages of care, you do not need to wait until the whole moisture leaves the skin. As in the case of dry skin, regularly exfoliate dehydrated skin, but again - soft peeling and no scrubs. In addition to external care, it is important to comply with the water balance and use a day at least one and a half liters of water, but be careful if you have problems with the output system, get a consultation of a specialist.
