Dry

Dry skin is characterized by a lack of moisture in the stratum corneum, resulting in tightness and flaking. Generally, under active or inactive oil glands produce little sebum. The skin appears dull, flakes and chaps easily, and is often accentuated by fine lines and wrinkles. In more severe cases, there may be itching and burning. Extremely dry skin is characterized by cracking and fissuring. Dry skin may be genetic, caused by climate, medications or cosmetics, or may be a natural consequence of aging. By using the right moisturizers, you can trap water in the skin and even repair the damaged lipid barrier. Listed below are our recommended products for dry skin.
