Hydrated skin is a happy skin

Your skin feels rough, dull and tight, it is lacking elasticity. You detect more wrinkles and lines, it even feels more itchy and irritated, red patches become visible. In extreme cases you could experience serious roughness, chapping and even cracks. Since your skin produces less sebum than normal skin and does not contain natural substances to retain moisture in the skin it dries out quicker which means the natural barrier function of the skin is affected.

Since the production of sebum and the regeneration of the cells are slowed down with age, dry skin is unfortunately often a result of the natural ageing process.

It is important that you use only very mild and re-moisturizing cleansers. Throughout the day use alcohol-free toners to hydrate the skin. During the night richer moisturizers help to support the water retention and improve the elasticity of the skin, also regularly use skin serums to help the build up of your lipid levels to restore your natural skin functions. It is important that you use moisturizers which help to restore the natural properties of your skin.
