We can see where the confusion lies with this one. Don’t dry and dehydrated mean the same thing? Can I have dry skin that’s perfectly hydrated?
Well, we want to put this confusion to bed once and for all!
Dry skin:
Tends to be more of a genetic skin type, rather than a passing issue
Lacks vital lipids, which act as a support barrier
Can also be dehydrated
Tends to impact face and bodyIs a constant issue, particularly in winter
Dehydrated skin:
Can affect anyone, regardless of their skin type
Lacks vital water, which balances the skin
Sometimes feels dry and oily simultaneously
Is often the cause of spots and blemishes
Can come and go depending on treatment and environment
Some ingredients to look for when tackling each issue are...
For dry skin look for:
Plant oils e.g. jojoba oil
Shea butter
Plant ceramides
You can find these ingredients in our Skin Feast, Smoothing Cleanser, and Whipped Body Velvet.
For dehydrated skin, look for:
Aloe vera juice
Hyaluronic acid
Cucumber extract
Algae extract
You can find these ingredients in our Vitamin Toner, Rainforest Dew, Deep Hydration Mask, and Skin Feast.
