Our International Training Manager Christine Legrand shares her insights on how to tell the difference between dry and dehydrated skin and helps select the best skincare routine for lasting skin health and comfort.
How to tell the difference between dry vs dehydrated skin?
It's quite simple: Dry skin lacks natural oils (also called sebum) and dehydrated skin lacks water. While dry skin is a skin type, just like oily or combination, dehydrated skin is a skin condition, meaning that everybody, regardless of skin type, can suffer from it from time to time!
Both states can be related and result in poor barrier function, occasional desquamation (skin shedding), and a typical lack of comfort. Drier skin conditions are characterized not only by a recurrent tendency to dehydration but also by a shortage of natural healthy lipids.
A Skin Type & A Skin Condition
Dry skin feels rough when you touch it and could show some desquamation or shedding on the surface if not treated adequately.
Dehydrated skin shows premature signs of aging like fine lines, and can feel tight and appear dull.
Ingredients to embrace for dry and dehydrated skin:
NMF is another great ingredient that will also help to keep your skin well hydrated.

Don’t forget that you can have a combination or oily skin and still need hydration. In that case, you should opt for a gel-cream texture or a lightweight serum.
Get Your Glow Back During Any Season
Generally, cooler weather (and the skin aggressions that accompany it) requires a slightly richer texture to be worn either day and night or only at night. Regardless of the seasons, the best way to know is to “listen and look” at your skin to assess what nourishment it needs.
As soon as a small discomfort arises, you need to change something to your routine: add a serum or do a mask until you feel and see the result you want in the mirror.
