SKIN CARE CONCERN FOR DRY SKIN

Dry skin can be caused by various factors, including environmental factors such as cold weather, low humidity, and exposure to harsh chemicals or hot water, as well as internal factors like genetics, aging, hormonal changes, and certain medical conditions.

Symptoms of dry skin may include tightness, flakiness, rough texture, itching, redness, and fine lines or cracks. If your skin feels parched and lacks moisture, it’s likely dry.

Choose amino acid-based, moisturizing, and sufficiently creamy cleansing products to avoid stripping the skin of its natural oils. Avoid harsh cleansers containing sulfates or alcohol, as they may further dry out the skin.

Moisturize dry skin at least twice a day, in the morning and evening, to keep it hydrated  and protected. Apply moisturizer immediately after cleansing or bathing to lock in moisture.

Yes, but choose gentle exfoliants like enzyme-based or chemical exfoliants (e.g., alpha hydroxy acids or AHAs) instead of harsh physical scrubs. Exfoliate no more than 1 time per week to avoid over-exfoliation and further drying out the skin.
