Dehydrated skin Dehydrated skin occurs when the skin isn’t retaining enough water. The difference between dehydrated and dry skin: Dehydrated skin lacks the ability to retain water or moisture, whereas, dry skin lacks sebaceous oil production. Symptoms of both dehydrated skin and dry skin:
Irritation, itchiness, sensitivity Skin feeling tight or taught Tight, dry or rough look or feel Exaggerated fine lines Severe redness and crack that may bleed
How to treat dehydrated skin:
Keep your body hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day. More if you are exercising or sweating a lot. Topical solution are products that are “hydro-based” or contain water as their first ingredient. Consider shorter, lukewarm showers as hot showers soften the skin allowing water to evaporate and dehydrate the skin.
