Dehydrated skin needs to be intensively moisturized. Use products with water-retaining ingredients immediately after washing. These products are usually liquid and available as toner, lotion, serum, toner or essence. Apply them to damp skin to bind the water. The moisture must then be “sealed” with a layer that prevents rapid evaporation: Use a moisturizer that suits your skin type. Creams that support the function of the natural lipid barrier can be recognized by the word Barrier Repair on the packaging.
Lifehack
Take care to moisturize from the inside out: pay attention to your water and salt balance, drink plenty of clean water and don’t be thirsty. Don’t overdo it: too much water at night leads to swelling in the morning.
Help your skin by switching on your humidifier more often. Modern appliances come in different sizes. Room-sized humidifiers, for example, provide your skin with moisture overnight, while compact humidifiers balance out dry office air.
Morning and evening skin care will take less time than reading this article. And lack of moisture, discomfort and tightness will no longer bother you, even if the weather app says “-5, feels like an Arctic ice storm”.
