What is Dry Skin?
Dry skin is a natural skin type with low oil output. The barrier needs gentle care, extra lipids, and daily protection to feel comfortable and look smooth.
Symptoms
- Tight after cleansing
- Flaky patches on cheeks and nose
- Dull or rough texture
- Makeup clings to dry spots
Common triggers
- Cold weather and low humidity
- Hot showers and harsh cleansers
- Over-exfoliating
- Fragrance and dyes
What helps
- Creamy low-foam cleanser
- Hydrating serum with glycerin or hyaluronic acid
- Ceramide rich moisturizer
- Daily sunscreen
- Overnight balm on flaky areas
Dry vs dehydrated
Dry means low oil. Dehydrated means low water. You can be both.
Why your skin feels dry
- Your skin produces less oil which weakens the barrier and lets water escape.
- Tightness and flaking show up after cleansing or in cold dry air.
- Hot showers harsh cleansers and over exfoliating strip away lipids.
- Fragrance and alcohol can make dryness and irritation worse.
Bottom line is to cleanse gently layer a hydrating serum seal with a ceramide rich moisturizer and wear SPF every day.

Frequently asked questions
What causes dry skin?
Genetics, colder or windy weather, indoor heating or AC, aging, and some medications reduce oil and damage the moisture barrier.
How do I know if my skin is dry or dehydrated?
Dry skin lacks oil and feels rough or tight, while dehydrated skin lacks water and looks dull or crêpey even if it gets oily.
Does the weather or indoor air make dry skin worse?
Yes, low humidity, cold winds, and forced air from heating or AC increase water loss from the skin.
Which ingredients are best for dry skin and which should I avoid?
Look for ceramides, squalane, glycerin, hyaluronic acid, and niacinamide, and avoid harsh sulfates, high-alcohol toners, and strong fragrance.
Is daily sunscreen necessary for dry skin?
Yes, UV exposure weakens the barrier and worsens dryness, so use a hydrating SPF every morning.
Can makeup make dry patches look worse?
Yes, matte or heavy powders can cling to texture, so choose cream or liquid formulas and avoid alcohol-heavy setting sprays.
