This skin type not only feels stressed by wind and weather, that is everyday life. Due to the lack of moisture, dry skin usually reacts more sensitively to environmental influences and cosmetics. It needs extra moisture and a strong skin barrier. However, since she tends to be sensitive, you must not overwhelm her with too many ingredients.

Proper care for dry skin. But how?
Dry skin primarily produces too few lipids (fats). This makes them susceptible to temperature fluctuations or care products. But dry skin also loses moisture quickly, since lipids protect against moisture loss and these are in short supply. The right care supplies the skin with nourishing native vegetable oils, which interact with the skin barrier and correct the lipid deficiency there. Ideally, moisture should also be added to the skin in the form of glycerin or hyaluronic acid combined with a hydrosol, but caution is advised here: the product should not contain any alcohol or emulsifiers, so that the opposite effect (dehydration) is not achieved becomes.
