Facial Care For Dry Skin

Is your skin really "sensitive"? Daily care of dry and sensitive skin is a challenge, especially in extreme temperatures, i.e. in winter and summer. Because people with this - unfortunately more and more common - skin type are very concerned about their stressed skin condition. Mild organic plant ingredients that do not irritate dry skin and rich care formulas promise gentle help from nature. We'll tell you on this page what you should pay attention to when cleaning and caring for it.

The characteristics of dry skin

Dry skin often shows reduced activity of the sebum glands. It lacks moisture on the one hand and fat on the other. The unpleasant consequence: The function of the protective acid mantle of your skin is disturbed. The external features of this malfunction can be flaky and rough areas of the skin (e.g. the cheek area), partial reddening of the skin and even fine cracks in the skin. In many cases, dry skin is uncomfortable and tight. The premature formation of (dryness) wrinkles can also be an undesirable consequence of dry and sensitive skin.

For dry skin, mild, pampering care products with the lowest possible alcohol content should be used. First and foremost, the lipid and moisture balance must be replenished and your skin supplied with sufficient oil. Rich, skin-protecting and moisturising care creams are best for dry and sensitive skin. In the next paragraph you will find out exactly what this means for the individual steps of your daily beauty routine.

The right facial care for dry skin

Dry skin requires extra-mild care that does not dry out the skin and offers particularly long-lasting moisture. Your daily beauty routine should therefore focus on calming and protecting the skin. Face care products for dry and demanding skin have the task of supporting or building up the protective skin coat and reducing any feelings of tension. Your day cream should fill up the empty moisture depots in the protective acid mantle in the morning, e.g. with the help of the valuable ingredient hyaluronic acid. Their skin-protecting, moisture-retaining and skin-tightening properties can counteract age-related dryness in particular. A finely balanced formulation of high-quality organic oils and fats on the one hand and valuable moisture factors on the other is the ideal care solution for night care too. Moisturising serums or face oils are a useful addition for the care of dry skin. Age-related wrinkles due to dryness often form around the eyes and lips. An intensely nourishing eye cream should therefore be gently patted into the skin as the last step in your daily beauty routine in the morning and evening.

Facial cleansing? Absolutely, but the gentle way please!

Dry and sensitive skin needs particularly mild cleaning, because it can react much more sensitively to active washing substances. Finely coordinated active ingredient compositions with added moisturisers, such as those offered by lavera, are the ideal care response from nature. In order to thoroughly remove dirt particles and make-up residues from your stressed skin, it is best to use a gentle cleansing milk. It provides the first moisture and care during cleaning.

A little tip: Make sure that you don't wash your face with water that is too hot, as this will stress your dry skin even more.
