How To Get Rid of Dehydrated Skin

Dehydrated skin can be a frustrating and uncomfortable problem to deal with. It occurs when your skin lacks water, leading to dryness, tightness and flakiness. In this article, we’ll explore some effective ways to get rid of dehydrated skin and restore your skin’s natural moisture. Even little things, like switching to our hydrating body wash bar, can make a big difference.

Signs of Dehydrated Skin

Before we dive into the solutions, let’s first define the most common signs of skin dehydration:

• Tightness or discomfort
• Dullness or uneven texture
• Flakiness or peeling
• Redness and irritation

Use Hair and Body Oil

Pamper your hair and skin with luxurious hair and body oil from The Earthling Co.; this lightweight formula can be used on hair and skin to seal in moisture without leaving a greasy feeling. Juniper and sage essential oils give it an incredible aroma. Vegan keratin also helps strengthen the hair and skin.

Make Lifestyle Changes

In addition to skin care products, lifestyle changes can help improve dehydrated skin. Ensure you drink enough water throughout the day since dehydration can affect your overall health and your skin’s hydration levels. Additionally, try incorporating foods rich in healthy fats like avocados and nuts into your diet because they help nourish the skin from within.

Exfoliate

Exfoliating your skin can also help get rid of dehydrated skin. Dead skin cells can accumulate on the surface of your skin, preventing moisture from penetrating deep into the layers. However, be careful not to over-exfoliate, as this can lead to further dryness and irritation. Stick to gentle exfoliators that contain AHAs or BHAs.

Use a Humidifier and Avoid Hot Showers

A humidifier in your home or office can be another way to help combat dehydrated skin. Dry air can strip your skin of its natural moisture, so adding humidity back into the air can prevent skin dehydration from happening.

While hot showers may feel great on a cold day, they can contribute to dehydrated skin. Hot water strips away natural oils, leading to dryness and irritation. Try taking shorter showers with lukewarm water instead.

Maintain a Hydrating Skin Care Routine

One way to combat dehydrated skin is by implementing a hydrating skin care routine. This includes using products that help replenish moisture and lock it in. With a skin care bundle from The Earthling Co., you are set to go.

Start by cleansing your face with a gentle cleanser that won’t strip away natural oils. 

Next, apply a serum such as our daily antioxidant serum that contains hyaluronic acid, which helps attract and retain water in the skin. The molecule of hyaluronic acid is known for holding 1000 times its weight in water, perfect for when you need immediate hydration delivered to your skin. Follow up with a moisturizer containing ingredients like ceramides and glycerin to seal in all that moisture.

Choose Sustainable Skin Care

If you are looking for a way to switch to sustainable products, consider using sustainable skin care products from The Earthling Co. that are better for your skin and the environment. Our brand uses eco-friendly packaging and ingredients that are sourced responsibly. 

It doesn’t have to be a daunting task, either. Start small by swapping to our hair and body oil that is multi-functional. Slowly but surely you will create your sustainable skin care routine. 

Use a Body Wash Bar

Regular body washes can strip away essential moisture, leaving skin dry and tight. Switch to a luxurious body wash bar that supplies much-needed hydration to keep your complexion from drying out further.

Remember to patch-test new products before incorporating them into your routine, especially if you have sensitive or allergy-prone skin.
