Dry skin is a type of skin that is characterized by the loss of water and its ability to retain it. The main causes are from genetics itself, to factors related to the environment and the environment...or everything in turn.

This imbalance is due to the malfunction of the sebaceous and sweat glands, which do not produce enough fluid to lubricate the skin and protect it from water loss.

This translates into a loss in that natural protection so necessary for our health and well-being.

But be careful, let's not get confused between dehydrated skin and dry skin . The first is something temporary, perhaps caused by the environment, the sun, etc., while dry skin, as such, is a type of skin in itself, whose functioning is not entirely correct, as we have explained above. .

On the contrary, if your skin is oily, in this article we will talk to you about how to treat oily or combination skin .

5 TIPS TO TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF IF YOUR SKIN IS DRY

Below I propose 5 Tips so that you can properly care for your skin in case it is “ dry ” type.

• Exfoliate every week

Remove dead cells from the skin's surface once a week with a gentle exfoliant. You will get much softer skin. Of course, try not to abuse it because the result can be the opposite and dry out your skin excessively.

• Apply a hydrating mask

On very dry skin it is advisable to apply hydrating masks to provide the necessary moisture to your epidermis.

We especially recommend our Moisturizing, Anti-Aging and Anti-Stress Facial Mask. With a formulation based on Clay, Cocoa, Silica and Quartz. With a high moisturizing, nourishing, anti-aging and firming power.

• Monitor the air conditioning

Air conditioning removes humidity from the environment, drying it out, and that can be harmful to your skin. We are not saying eliminate its use, but we do advise appropriate and moderate use.

• Moisturize your skin

Apply moisturizing creams after each cleansing and as needed during the day. At Golden Pyramide we can recommend the following products:

Thanks to its soft color and pure 22K Gold, this cream instantly hides imperfections. In addition, it unifies, hydrates and brightens the skin tone. One top.

Our Body Milk Golden Sparkles 22k Gold. Provides regeneration, firmness and luminosity from the inner layers of the skin. It stimulates the formation of fibroblasts - responsible for the synthesis of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid - weakened by the passage of time, offering a fabulous result: an increase in density, elasticity and natural firmness. 

• Take care of yourself in your bathroom

Use warm water in your bath or shower, use a mild, neutral and non-aggressive soap, with an oily texture. When drying the skin, do not scrub the skin vigorously, remove the water by gently drying, and moisturize the skin immediately after bathing to maintain its moisture using either of the two aforementioned products.

As you can see, hydration is essential when caring for dry skin. Don't forget to keep these tips in mind in your daily life.
