Dry Skin Concerns

Tightness and Discomfort: Dry skin often feels tight, especially after cleansing or exposure to harsh environmental conditions like cold weather.

Rough Texture: Dry skin can have a rough, uneven texture, sometimes with a dull appearance.

Flakiness and Peeling: People with Dry skin may experience flakiness and peeling, particularly in areas like the cheeks and forehead.

Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Dry skin is more prone to developing fine lines and wrinkles due to a lack of moisture and reduced elasticity.

Sensitivity: Dry skin tends to be more sensitive and susceptible to irritation, redness, and inflammation.

Best Ingredients for Dry Skin

Glycerin

A powerful ingredient that regulates sebum production, reduces inflammation, and minimizes pore appearance.

Our Agave Clean Daily Cleanser is formulated with this ingredient.

Hyaluronic Acid

This hydrating powerhouse attracts and retains moisture, helping to plump and rejuvenate dry skin.

You can find this ingredient in our Phoenix Day & Night Serum.

Ceramides

Natural lipids that help restore the skin's protective barrier, preventing moisture loss and improving hydration.

We included this ingredient in our Monsoon Advanced Moisturizer.

Mango Butter

A rich emollient that deeply moisturizes and soothes dry, irritated skin.

Our Desert Rain - Light Moisturizer is formulated with this ingredient.

Our Expert Tips

Gentle Cleansing: Use a mild, fragrance-free cleanser to avoid stripping the skin of its natural oils. Opt for lukewarm water instead of hot water, as hot water can further dry out the skin. Don’t over-exfoliate your skin.
Hydration is Key: Hydrate your skin both internally and externally. Drink plenty of water and use a hydrating moisturizer to replenish moisture levels, in the morning and evening.
Avoid Harsh Ingredients: Stay away from harsh, drying ingredients like alcohol, fragrance, and sulfates that can make dryness worse.
Face Mask Once a Week: Incorporating hydrating face masks into your skincare routine once or twice a week can significantly improve your skin's hydration levels. Look for face masks that contain ingredients such as Hyaluronic Acid, Aloe Vera, honey, or oatmeal, as these are known for their hydrating and soothing properties.
