Flaking, rough, and extremely dry skin is no fun. If it feels as though your skin is constantly begging for moisture, you’ve come to the right place. Especially during the cold winter months, most of us fall victim to extremely dry skin. Luckily, with the right skin care routine, complete with the proper skin care products, you can take care of extra dry skin on your face and body in no time. Ready to tackle this popular skin concern? Read on for everything you need to know.
Before we cover how to handle extremely dry skin, it’s a good idea to learn about some common causes. Take note of the following, courtesy of the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD).
Extremely Dry Skin Cause #1: Age. As you get older, your skin becomes thinner and drier.
Extremely Dry Skin Cause #2: Skin conditions. Certain skin conditions, including eczema and psoriasis, can cause very dry skin.
Extremely Dry Skin Cause #3: Career. Your job can also lead to extremely dry skin. Nurses, hairstylists, and other professions that often immerse their skin in water throughout the day can end up with cracked, dry skin.
Extremely Dry Skin Cause #4: Swimming. Swimming in pools that have high levels of chlorine can result in dry skin.
Extremely Dry Skin Cause #5: Climate. Dry climates, such as the desert, can result in dry skin. This is also a factor during cold, dry winter months, as we mentioned earlier.
Now that you’re familiar with the common causes of dry and extremely dry skin, it’s time to learn how to care for it. To care for extremely dry skin on your face, here are a few tips you can try.
If you have dry skin, certain cleansers can dry out your complexion even more. That’s where a cream cleanser comes in. This type of cleanser is specifically formulated to remove impurities while nourishing your skin to avoid over-drying. Need a product rec? We have two!
L’Oréal Paris Age Perfect Nourishing Cream Cleanser: This cream cleanser for mature skin is formulated with replenishing oils to gently yet effectively remove traces of makeup without over-drying for softer, smoother, suppler skin.
L’Oréal Paris Revitalift Radiant Smoothing Cream Cleanser: This cream cleanser is specially formulated to nourish skin and boost radiance while gently exfoliating and removing all traces of impurities and makeup. Skin looks smoother, brighter, and more refined.
Bring on the hydration! A moisturizing serum is a must for your skin care routine when managing extremely dry skin. Enter the L’Oréal Paris Revitalift Derm Intensives 1.5% Pure Hyaluronic Acid Serum. This hyaluronic acid serum absorbs quickly to replenish hydration immediately and visibly reduce wrinkles in two weeks for visibly plumped, youthful-looking skin. Need we say more?
Last but not least, you’ll want to stock up on an ultra-hydrating moisturizer. Apply one a few times a day to keep your skin happy and hydrated—and avoid dryness. Consider using one of the following.
L’Oréal Paris Age Perfect Hydra Nutrition Manuka Honey All Over Balm - Face, Neck, Chest and Hands: This silky all-over balm is formulated with manuka honey extract and nurturing oils. The moisturizer absorbs quickly to relieve mature, very dry skin on the face, neck, chest, and hands—even on the go.
L’Oréal Paris Age Perfect Hydra Nutrition Honey Day Cream: This decadent, creamy face moisturizer is formulated with nurturing oils and manuka honey. The rich cream penetrates the skin's surface layer to restore comfort and nourishing moisture to mature, very dry skin.
L’Oréal Paris Age Perfect Hydra Nutrition Honey Night Balm: This luxurious night balm face moisturizer contains nurturing oils and manuka honey extract. The formula melts onto skin for incredible nourishing comfort, effectively penetrating the skin's surface layer to strengthen mature, very dry skin on the face, neck, and chest.
L’Oréal Paris Hydra Genius Daily Liquid Care - Extra Dry Skin: Specifically developed for extra dry skin, this water-based moisturizer is formulated with aloe water and hyaluronic acid. The lightweight moisturizer breaks into water upon contact with skin to deliver instant hydration that glides on easily for quick absorption.
