How to comfort and care for dry skin?
Rough to the touch, dry skin can cause itching and tightness. Like combination or oily skin, dry skin is a skin type in its own right. Therefore, its characteristics cannot be changed. However, supplementation and appropriate skin care can help maintain it, soothe it, and boost its radiance.
Optimize skin hydration with a food supplement
Dry skin reflects a clear lack of lipids , or more precisely, sebum. The hydrolipidic film on the skin's surface is no longer able to produce enough sebum to maintain its protective barrier function. In addition to protecting the epidermis against microbes and bacteria, this film also limits the evaporation of water contained in the skin. An alteration of the film therefore exposes the skin to external aggressions and to continuous and rapid dehydration.
To combat dry skin , it is therefore essential to restore the balance of the hydrolipidic film. Biocyte offers a range of suitable skin food supplements . For hydrated and comfortable skin, the laboratory offers the food supplement Coconut Oil Dry Skin® . Unique on the market, it relieves the discomfort characteristic of dry skin thanks to coconut oil. Its formula also includes safflower oil. The latter promotes skin hydration thanks to its composition rich in fatty acids. This product is free of titanium dioxide.
In addition to being rough, dry skin is often dull, regardless of the season. The food supplement BB caps® — capsules from Biocyte can help remedy this problem. Inspired by BB creams ® , Biocyte BB caps ® enhances the skin thanks to the benefits of niacin. It also contains zinc and vitamin E. These active ingredients help maintain normal skin and contribute to protecting skin cells against the harmful effects of oxidative stress. In addition, this food supplement combines hyaluronic acid with borage oil and beta-glucans to smooth skin texture and revive radiance. Strictly follow the recommended duration of the treatment for optimal results.
Dietary supplements work from the inside out. It's recommended to reinforce supplementation by using cosmetic products designed for dry skin. These treatments act directly on the skin's surface.
Pamper dry skin with a tailored skincare routine
Itching, irritation, and tightness aren't inevitable. It's easy to relieve these discomforts with a tailored beauty routine.
— In the morning, cleanse dry skin with a toner or possibly floral water. Avoid washing your face with soap and water, which unfortunately are very drying.
— Then apply a day cream. Dry skin loves rich, creamy, and pampering textures. Choose formulas containing nourishing ingredients like coconut, argan, shea, and avocado, among others.
— Apply makeup if desired, and finish by spritzing on thermal spring water. This water optimizes skin hydration and brightens makeup.
Plant oils and butters are your best allies for nourishing your skin once a week. Use them as an overnight mask. They can be applied neat or mixed with a little honey. Don't forget to apply some to the eye area. Also, don't forget to moisturize your hands, lips, and body with a dedicated treatment.
— In the evening, remove your makeup using cleansing milk.
— Cleanse your dry skin with a dry skin cleansing gel before rinsing it with thermal or floral water as desired.
— Then apply a vegetable oil—sweet almond oil or avocado oil—and finish with the anti-aging cream. Dry skin shows signs of aging quickly, compared to other skin types.
Using skin care is pointless if it doesn't match and address the issues of each skin type. For dry skin, we use products designed for dry skin. Similarly, skin care for blemish-prone skin is exclusively intended for acne-prone skin, skin prone to blackheads, and skin with uneven skin texture, among other things.
Take care of dry skin with simple steps
Fighting dry skin requires adopting a few good habits. It is recommended to:
— Drink enough every day. Water, green tea, herbal tea: vary your pleasures. Conversely, limit your alcohol consumption.
— Quit smoking, which dries out the skin and accelerates the skin aging process.
— Cover yourself well in winter and protect your skin with sunscreen in all seasons.
— Eat a varied diet, prioritizing fruits and vegetables. Make sure your meals include foods rich in essential fatty acids, trace elements, and vitamins A, B, and C, which are essential for beautiful skin.
Caring for dry skin may seem complicated, but it's not. It's all about the choice of products, dietary supplements, and lifestyle.
