Find the perfect moisturiser in less than 30 seconds.
Dry skin is caused by a lack of moisture, usually due to environmental changes, hot showers and harsh chemicals in skincare or beauty products. Unprotected exposure to the sun can dry out the skin and reduce its layers of fatty acids, which causes your skin to look dry and rough.
Skincare products containing alcohol can also dehydrate the skin, causing it to become itchy, flaky and dull. Choosing the right moisturiser for dry skin is key to restore moisture and prevent dehydration.
Worried about dry, flaky skin? Here are several tips to help alleviate the condition. It’s crucial to keep your skin moisturised throughout the day and night, especially if you spend long hours in air-conditioned environments. After cleansing and toning your face, apply your serum and moisturiser for dry skin to infuse nutrients and hydration into your skin.
Be sure to drink lots of water to keep your body hydrated, and use a broad-spectrum sunscreen each morning to protect your skin from the sun’s harmful rays.
Dry skin requires hydrating products to keep the skin soft and dewy. Build a simple but effective skincare routine starting with a moisturising cleanser that doesn’t strip the skin of its natural oils, then follow up with an alcohol-free toner or treatment essence to balance your skin’s pH levels. After cleansing and toning, apply a hydrating serum to deliver moisture and nutrients to the deeper layers of the skin.
Moisturising is a crucial step in your skincare routine, especially if you have dry skin. In addition to hydrating the skin, the best moisturisers for dry skin are specially formulated to repair damaged moisture barriers and protect the skin from further moisture loss.
Day moisturisers are different from night creams, because day creams have a slightly lighter texture and can be worn under your make-up throughout the day. On the other hand, night moisturisers for dry skin are formulated to be richer and more nourishing than day creams, since they aim to repair the skin throughout the night while you rest.
After your moisturiser, layer on your eye cream and sunscreen before heading out for the day. At night, apply your night cream and follow up with a relaxing sleeping mask once or twice a week.
