Dry skin and dehydrated skin are not the same — and understanding the difference is key to healthy, glowing skin
▫️ Dry skin = a lack of oil (lipids)
▫️ Dehydrated skin = a lack of water
You can actually have oily skin that is still dehydrated. Signs of dehydration can include tightness, dullness, fine lines, sensitivity and makeup not sitting properly on the skin.
This is why hyaluronic acid is such an important step in your skincare routine 💧 HA helps attract and retain water in the skin, improving hydration, plumpness and overall skin health.
One of our favourites? ALASTIN HA Immerse Serum. Formulated with high molecular weight hyaluronic acid and Octapeptide-45 technology to support your skin’s natural ability to produce its own HA over time — for long-lasting hydration and a healthier skin barrier.
Hydrated skin = healthier, brighter, more resilient skin ✨
