How To Address Dry Skin

Skincare designed for dehydrated skin.

Dry skin occurs when the skin’s natural moisture barrier is compromised, leading to increased water loss and lack of hydration. This can be caused by a variety of factors including environmental conditions, harsh skincare products, and underlying health issues. Dryness is an uncomfortable feeling where the skin can be tight, itchy and irritated. We’ve rounded up the best skincare ingredients to use that will drastically improve the look and feel of dry skin.

Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic Acid is a naturally-occurring substance found within the body and is what gives our skin bounce and hydration by attracting and retaining moisture. Think of it as acting as a sponge, drawing water from the environment and delivering it deep into the skin’s layers, where it’s needed most. Incorporating the Intense Hyaluronic Serum into your skincare routine can help you plump your skin, reduce the appearance of fine lines and leave you with a complexion that’s soft, smooth, and hydrated.

Pro tip: boost your hydration by adding a few drops of the Intense Hyaluronic Serum directly into your favorite moisturizer.

Niacinamide

Niacinamide, also known as vitamin B3, is a versatile skincare ingredient renowned for its ability to address a wide range of skin concerns, including dryness. It has anti-inflammatory properties that help soothe dry, irritated skin, leaving it soft, smooth and hydrated. The Hydrate Nia moisturizer is perfect to use during the day under SPF and makeup as a base layer that works to actively strengthen the skin barrier.

Ceramides

Ceramides are lipid molecules that play a crucial role in maintaining the skin’s moisture barrier. When the skin’s natural ceramide levels are depleted, it can lead to increased water loss and dryness. Incorporating ceramide-rich products, such as the Hydravol moisturizer, can help replenish these essential lipids, strengthening the skin and locking in moisture. Hydravol can be used as a daytime or evening moisturizer, and has a rich, creamy consistency which not only feels great on dry, irritated skin, but also has medical-grade qualities to make a real difference in elasticity.

If you struggle with dryness, apply these skincare ingredients in the above order: hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, ceramides, and you will notice softer, more plump skin almost instantly. Visit our online store at store.rothausmd.com to explore all skincare products!
