How to Treat Dehydrated Skin
Dry skin is different from dehydrated skin. Dry skin is a skin type, while dehydrated skin is a skin condition that can occur in anyone and is based on a variety of factors. Sources of dehydrated skin include UV exposure, daily habits (like stress, lack of sleep, and other lifestyle choices), and, of course, a chronic lack of hydrating skincare products. Caring for dehydrated skin takes consistency, in both personal wellness and skincare products. Reach for products that soothe, calm, and hydrate. And wear sunscreen daily to fight UV damage.
Skin Cycling
Skin cycling is a simple four-night cycle that balances powerful active ingredients with recovery time to keep your skin balanced and healthy. It starts with exfoliation, followed by a night of retinol, then two nights of hydration and repair. This method helps prevent irritation while making sure you get all the benefits of your skincare products. It’s great for combination and oily skin, but if you have sensitive skin, you might need to try gentler alternatives.
