Dry skin occurs when the skin does not produce enough oil. Factors such as a change of seasons, harsh skincare products, environmental factors (including air conditioning and artificial heat) and more can make the feeling of tightness, itchiness, and flaking associated with dry skin even worse. Face products for dry skin are formulated to deliver extra moisture to the skin, preserve its natural oils, and help improve the signs of dry skin you can see and feel.

SkinCeuticals offers a wide array of skin hydration products for dry skin. Our Purifying Cleanser, Soothing Cleanser, Replenishing Cleanser, and Glycolic Renewal Cleanser are all appropriate for dry skin. SkinCeuticals also offers targeted hydrating serums, including Hydrating B5 Gel and H.A. Intensifier. A moisturizer is one of the most important products for dry skin, and SkinCeuticals offers several options that address an array of additional skin concerns. Popular moisturizers for dry skin include Advanced RGN-6 Exosome Cream and Triple Lipid Restore.

Dry skin does not necessarily cause acne, but dry skin can experience breakouts. If you have dry, acne-prone skin it's best to use non-comedogenic products for dry skin. Many of our skincare products for dry skin are non-comedogenic, which means they won't clog pores. Find a SkinCeuticals Skincare Professional who can recommend the ideal regimen of dry skin products for acne-prone skin.

Dry skin can contribute to the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, but it is not necessarily the root cause. Replenishing moisture with hydrating skincare products helps temporarily plump the skin and, in turn, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

An effective skincare routine for dry skin focuses on replenishing moisture and strengthening the skin barrier. Begin with a gentle, non-stripping cleanser that removes impurities without disrupting natural oils, such as SkinCeuticals Soothing Cleanser. Follow with a hydrating serum like Hyaluronic Acid Intensifier Multi-Glycan or Hydrating B5 Gel and a moisturizer rich in barrier-repairing ingredients like Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2. Daily use of broad-spectrum sunscreen in the morning is also essential to help prevent further dehydration caused by environmental exposure throughout the day.

Key ingredients for dry skin include hyaluronic acid, which attracts and retains moisture, and glycerin, which helps maintain hydration.
