Why do we always talk about hydrating your skin? Why is it important that you need to keep our skin hydrated? The simple fact is that a dehydrated skin indicates that something is not right. Dehydrated skin is not a healthy skin. Dehydration is the first sign of an impaired skin barrier which can lead to inflammation, skin sensitivity, eczema, dermatitis, premature aging, and even acne. 

A hydrated skin is an indication that the skin is healthy. The skin barrier is intact, the skin is strong, resilient, and has good immunity. So before we do anything else, we always check for skin hydration levels and correct his first. 

What Is a Dehydrated Skin

So how do you know if your skin is dehydrated? Dehydrated skin feels tight, dry, and uncomfortable. Under magnification, we can see fine lines on the surface of the skin. Dehydrated skin often has a dull appearance, it lacks vitality. I deeply dehydrated skin will also feel very dry and can become itchy and irritated easily. Because of the lack of moisture, the skin is not able to renew itself and exfoliate so there will be a build-up of dead cells and even be flaking in patches. 

What Is the Difference Between Dry and Dehydrated Skin

A dry skin is a skin type, whereas dehydration is a skin condition. Skin type is usually determined by genes where the skin condition is determined by lifestyle factors and external environment. So people with dry skin are usually born with this skin type and they do not produce as much oil in the skin. 

Dehydration can occur in dry skin or oily skin types. The difference is that the skin is lacking moisture. Whereas dry skin is lacking oil.
