What factors cause dry skin?
Use of irritating products, unsuitable for dry skins.
Cold air adversely affects dry skin. Low temperature and low air humidity cause increased water escape from the epidermis. In consequence it leads to dehydration and drying of the skin.
Frequent use of air-conditioning results in severe skin dryness due to significantly reduced moisture levels. Therefore it is important to protect your skin with products that are nourishing and hydrating.
UV rays damage the epidermal barrier lipids of the skin and disrupt the formation of NMF (natural moisturising factor). In conclusion, adequate sun protection is extremely important, not only to moisturise but also to protect the skin against UVA and UVB radiation.
