Dehydrated Skin

Dehydrated skin is a skin condition, meaning that it is a developed skin concern, more temporary in nature. Where dry skin can be considered as oil-deficient, dehydrated skin can be regarded as being water-deficient, occurring as a result of insufficient levels of water being maintained within the skin.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      Introduction to dehydrated skin and how to spot the symptoms

      Dehydrated skin commonly feels flaky, taught and itchy and may be caused by many factors including over-exfoliation of the skin, poor diet, alcohol consumption, use of stripping cleansers and harsh soaps, climate change, over-exposure to the sun and other environmental factors. Dehydrated skin is generally more crêpe-like in appearance with fine-lines being more visible. In certain cases of dehydration, the skin compensates for this water loss by over-producing oil and as a result, dehydrated skin can appear to become oily.

      As dehydration occurs as a result of insufficient levels of water within the skin, the best way to overcome this is to increase the amount of water taken up into the skin.  In certain aspects, a lifestyle change may be necessary, as may be an adjustment of product usage. Consuming sufficient levels of water is important for overall health and well-being however, consuming more water within your diet may not necessarily overcome dehydration. The reason for this is that the skin is the last organ to receive water when ingested meaning that only a small percentage of all consumed water actually reaches the skin. Rather reach for topically-applied skin care products that are hydrophilic in nature, meaning they bind and retain water in the skin.

      Apply DermaFix ACC Hyaluronic Gel, a humectant helping to bind water into the skin and prevent water loss. Follow with the application of DermaFix Bio-Hydrating Cream, a light-weight emollient moisturiser that assists to balance the skin's barrier whilst preventing trans-epidermal water loss.
