Dehydrated facial skin: how to recognize it and restore moisture to it

Content
Tightness, overnight fine lines and flaking makeup: signs of dehydrated skin. How is it different from dry and how to renew it.

Your skin feels uncomfortably tight, it's shiny for no reason, your makeup is "breaking" into fine lines, and the cream you've been using for years suddenly doesn't seem to be doing anything. Chances are, your skin isn't dry, it's dehydrated. And yes, those are two different things.

Dry or dehydrated skin: what's the difference?

Dry skin is a skin type: it lacks oil and has been that way more or less all its life. Dehydrated skin is a condition: it lacks water, and this can happen to anyone, including oily and combination skin. That's why even oily skin can be dehydrated, no matter how strange it sounds.

Signs that the skin is dehydrated

  • Tightness after washing that does not go away
  • Fine, shallow lines that appear overnight, especially around the eyes
  • Dull complexion, skin looks “tired”
  • Makeup settles into lines and doesn't stay put
  • Increased sensitivity and occasional flaking

Why does the skin dehydrate?

The most common culprits are the sun and sea in the summer, dry heating air in the winter, air conditioning, too little fluid, aggressive care with too much exfoliation and alcohol in the products that year, because the skin retains less and less water over time.

How to restore water to the skin?

  • Water-binding care: hyaluronic acid, glycerin and ceramides, applied to damp skin
  • Gentle cleaning: without hot washes and foaming gels that remove the protective layer
  • Moisture inside: enough water throughout the day, especially in summer
  • Stimulating circulation and renewal: This is where treatments come in.

What if he's not enough?

If the skin is chronically dehydrated, the problem is often deeper: weakened microcirculation and slower cell renewal. The INDIBA facial treatment warms the deeper layers of the skin, increases circulation and the supply of nutrients, and stimulates collagen production. Clients often describe their skin as "filled" and fresher after the first treatments.
