Is Your Skin Dry or Dehydrated?

Dry skin and dehydrated skin may feel similar, but they are not the same.

Dry skin lacks oil.
It is a skin type that may feel rough, flaky or tight.

Dehydrated skin lacks water.
It is a temporary condition that can happen to any skin type—even oily skin.

How Can You Tell?

Dry Skin

• Flaky or rough texture
• Often feels tight
• Produces less natural oil

Dehydrated Skin

• Feels tight but may still look oily
• Fine dehydration lines
• Dull or tired-looking skin

What Does Your Skin Need?

For dry skin, focus on moisturising and supporting the skin barrier.

For dehydrated skin, focus on hydration, gentle cleansing and helping the skin retain moisture.

And yes—you can have dry and dehydrated skin at the same time.

Understanding what your skin is lacking makes choosing the right routine much easier.

Effective Skincare. Every step should count.
