The Best Ways to Hydrate Dry, dehydrated Skin!

How dry skin can age your face:

It’s important to keep your skin hydrated regardless of your skin type, but it is especially important for mature skin. During the aging process, the collagen in our faces begins to break down and the regeneration of cells begins to slow. This causes your skin to look thin and dry. When your skin is properly hydrated, it looks plump therefore reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Maintain good hydration & your skin will age much more gracefully! 

Signs your skin is craving moisture: 

Signs that your skin is in need of moisture include inflammations, fine lines, itchiness, redness, and a tight feeling. Exfoliation can help enhance your skins hydration levels, it promotes the turnover of new skin cells & increases your skin's ability to absorb products.

3 Ways to care for dry skin on your face:

1. Topical Treatments
Use products designed specifically to replenish moisture to dry skin such as masks, serums, sprays, and cream. Hint: you can combine these for an even better hydrating effect! 

2. Take Care Daily
We can't stress this enough - Drink Water! Drinking the recommended amount of water (based on body weight) will be beneficial, your skin will thank you!

3. Medi-Spa Options
If your skin begins to feel tighter or itchier than usual, there are medi-spa options that can revive and soothe your dry, itchy skin.

Tip: To increase hydration levels in your skin, use products containing Hyaluronic acid which helps the skin retain moisture and instantly smooths any roughness.
