Discover the differences disparities of dry and dehydrated skin and watch your skin glow

Anti aging serums rich in Hyaluronic Acid will help tremendously in the battle against dehydration.

The term  “dehydrated skin” has taken on a functionality of its own in recent times. Dry skin and dehydrated skin are very different skin conditions.

Most beauty counter assistants in a mall will tell you your face is dehydrated. It has been a standard approach for a long time and has to be the most effective sales hype of all times.

How often were you offered over-rated creams based on exactly how negative you felt right after having your skin declared “Not properly hydrated” with a solemn shake of the head?

Equipment used by beauticians helps verify a preliminary aesthetic diagnosis from the aesthetician if the skin is actually dry, normal or oily type. From this point prognosis of dehydrated might be made. Any kind of skin type can be dehydrated. A magnifying lamp is a  piece of equipment used by aestheticians  to help accurately analyse the skin. Cleaned skin is required to execute an accurate analysis.

A beauty counter assistant with no tools is not in a position to assess skin as dehydrated. The prospect is often using make-up which can make an analysis near impossible.

There’s a huge difference between dry skin and dehydrated skin. Dry skin is a skin condition and indicates skin is lacking in oil (fats). Dehydrated skin is lacking in moisture (water) and may cause  a number of other skin problems.

Oily skin, in addition to dry skin can be dehydrated.

Dehydrated skin is directly affected by the fluid consumption of a person. If fluid ingestion isn’t effectively looked after daily dehydrated skin will come about. Drinking coffee, tea, soft drinks and alcoholic beverages will probably exacerbate dehydrated skin.

Additional skin troubles for example excessive keratinisation (abnormal dead skin cells), damaged lymphatic system and accelerated skin aging can also be brought on by dehydrated skin.

Weather conditions directly affect hydration of the skin. In summer time whenever humidity is increased moisture reduction from the skin is reduced. In winter months moisture reduction (trans- epidermal water loss) is much higher.

Dehydrated skin could be improved upon quickly simply by increasing intake of water as well as by using high quality skincare containing humectants and glycoaminoglycans (or GAG’s abbreviated). These components include glycerin, sodium PCA, Lactic Acid, Lecithin, Urea and Hyaluronic Acid.

The king of hydrators is Hyaluronic Acid is also referred to as Sodium Hyaluronate or Hyaluronan.

The best thing about this particular ingredient is that it can store as much as one thousand times its own weight in water. Due to the fact Hyaluronic Acid is by natural means contained in the skin it is a huge advantage to have the ability to augment skin by application
