How to Recognise Dehydrated Skin:

You may notice a dull complexion, pronounced fine lines and skin that feels tight or uncomfortable. Makeup may settle into creases or appear uneven.

What Actives Are Needed to Treat Dehydrated Skin:

Humectants such as hyaluronic acid and glycerin draw moisture into the skin, while barrier-supporting ingredients like niacinamide help lock it in. Avoiding harsh cleansers prevents further water loss.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is dehydrated skin?
Plus
Minus

Dehydrated skin lacks water content within its layers, which can lead to a dull or uneven appearance. This condition can affect all skin types, even those prone to oiliness.

Is dry skin caused by dehydration?
Plus
Minus

Dry skin and dehydrated skin are related but distinct. Dryness stems from reduced oil production, while dehydration occurs when the skin loses water. Both can exist simultaneously.

What are the signs and symptoms of dehydrated skin?
Plus
Minus

Dehydrated skin can appear dull, lacklustre, and may feel tight. Fine lines may become more visible due to reduced water levels within the skin.

Is wrinkled skin a sign of dehydration?
Plus
Minus

Dehydration can temporarily accentuate the appearance of fine lines, giving the skin a creased or tired look. Once hydration is restored, these lines may appear less pronounced.

Can dehydrated skin be oily?
Plus
Minus

Yes. Even oily skin can become dehydrated when water levels drop. This can lead to increased oil production as the skin attempts to compensate, potentially contributing to congestion.

What's the difference between dehydrated skin and dry skin?
Plus
Minus

Dry skin lacks oil, while dehydrated skin lacks water. The two conditions require different approaches. Hydration focuses on replenishing water, while dryness requires restoring lipids.

How to treat dehydrated skin?
