Hydrating Skincare
Why Skin Hydration Is Important: Causes and Signs
Various factors can disrupt your skin’s natural hydration: exposure to external aggressors, weather changes, stress, or hormonal shifts. These lead to visible signs such as dullness, tightness, and fine lines.
Choosing the right skincare is essential to restore hydration, prevent discomfort, and revive your skin’s glow. O’terra offers natural solutions tailored to deeply hydrate and meet the needs of every skin type.
Main causes of skin dehydration
Skin dehydration can result from:
- Daily life: Stress, fatigue, and insufficient water intake also impact skin hydration and appearance.
- Environmental factors: Temperature, UV rays, and wind dry and weaken the skin.
- Incorrect skincare: Using products unsuited for your skin type can disrupt the skin barrier.
Tip: A natural and targeted hydration routine helps mitigate these effects, leaving your complexion radiant and smooth.
Types of skin dehydration and recommended care
Each skin type requires targeted care to restore hydration.
Temporarily dehydrated skin
Often caused by stress, temperature fluctuations, or prolonged exposure to cold and wind, temporary dehydration results in tight and dull-looking skin. To quickly restore hydration, opt for richer treatments, such as the Moisturizing & Mattifying Face Cream, and increase their frequency of use.
Chronic dry skin
This skin type is naturally more sensitive to environmental changes and requires a daily hydration routine featuring gentle, natural ingredients. The Hyaluronic Acid, Matcha & Mandarin Serum, Moisturizing & Mattifying Face Cream, Clementine & Calendula Mist, Divine Face Oil, and the Moisturizing & Soothing Face Mask are all excellent options. These products can be combined for optimal results, particularly for dry and reactive skin.
Combination skin with dry areas
Combination skin features oily zones, typically in the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin), and dry areas, such as the cheeks. The most effective approach is often a combination of products. For dry areas, apply the Clementine & Calendula Mist and the Moisturizing & Soothing Face Mask. For oily and acne-prone areas, use the Lime & Tea Tree Mist and the Purifying & Detoxifying Face Mask.
Note: For persistent dehydration, consult a dermatologist for a personalized routine.
The consequences of not treating skin dehydration
Failing to properly hydrate your skin can lead to signs of premature aging, a rougher texture, redness, and an overall dull appearance.
Tips to Prevent Skin Dehydration
For a radiant, hydrated complexion, follow these tips:
- Drink at least 8 glasses of water a day. Hydration starts from the inside!
- Opt for a moisturizing skin care routine adapted to your skin type.
- Prioritize products made with natural ingredients.
