Dry skin on the face Replenishing creams for dry skin Dry flaky skin on the face is unpleasant. With moisturizing creams and a few other care tips, you can do something good for your skin now.

Flaky facial skin: How can I recognize dry skin? Dry skin is often scaly and rough on its surface. While a healthy skin barrier offers protection against environmental influences and regulates the skin's moisture balance, a lack of oil and moisture can cause a disturbed skin barrier. Important for the skin barrier are an intact horn layer and the so-called acid mantle, a water-lipid film consisting of sweat, sebum, electrolytes, urea, various acids, peptides and fatty acids, among others, which is the basic condition for a balanced microflora of the skin. If the skin barrier is disturbed, the skin loses moisture and fat. The skin becomes dry and reacts more sensitively to external influences. Dry skin also loses elasticity more quickly and increased wrinkle formation is the result. In addition, feelings of tension and itching can arise, and in the case of very dry skin also slight redness and cracks. Regular skin care is therefore indispensable, especially for dry skin. Replenishing creams offer dry skin protection and can help it to regenerate.

These creams help against dry skin! A face cream for very dry skin should have a correspondingly high fat content. Generally, face creams are based on a mixture of water and fat. Depending on the skin type, the two ingredients are used in a different mixing ratio. For example, the fat content of a skin cream for dry skin should be significantly higher. Natural fats and oils are particularly close to skin fat. Used in a cream for dry skin, they are skin-friendly and absorb well. The cream leaves a light greasy film on the dry skin, which protects it from moisture loss and makes the horny layer supple and soft.

Day cream for dry skin A moisturizer for dry skin should make the skin appear rosy fresh and supple by intensively moisturizing and supporting the skin's own hydration. A suitable active ingredient for this is hyaluronic acid. Both hyaluronic acid and additional lipids from natural oils help to reduce moisture loss through the skin. We recommend a moisturizer for the day and a richer face cream for dry skin overnight.

Face cream for dry skin A face cream for dry skin should provide the lipid-deficient skin, in addition to intensive moisture, e.g. by panthenol or hyaluronic acid, with refatting ingredients, e.g. shea butter or natural oils from jojoba, macadamia nut or sesame. For extremely dry skin, you should use a particularly rich and refatting cream for dry skin, which balances the lipid balance, as well as supports the natural skin barrier, which serves to protect against moisture loss. Thus, dryness wrinkles can be reduced and the skin looks smoother and feels velvety soft. By the way, the skin regenerates best over night. Particularly lipid-replenishing creams are ideal as a pure night cream for dry skin. During the day, you can use a lighter moisturizer for dry skin.

Face cream for extremely sensitive skin Due to the damaged protective skin barrier, dry skin quickly reacts sensitively. External influences can irritate the skin more easily. A special face cream for extremely dry, sensitive skin can soothe the skin with active ingredients such as Neuroxyl, evening primrose oil, dexpanthenol and microsilver and relieve unpleasant feelings of tension and itching. By regenerating the skin's natural protective barrier and supporting its resistance, the cream allows the skin to recover more quickly. Incidentally, these face creams for extremely sensitive skin are also suitable for supportive care in the case of neurodermatitis during the symptom-free period and for care of the eye area. Depending on skin needs, use either as 24h care or in combination as day care and night care for dry skin.

The optimal complement to the moisturizing cream for dry skin - a moisturizing cleanser! Dry skin lacks oil and moisture, making it appear dull, rough and flaky. Unpleasant feelings of tightness can increase, especially after cleansing the face. Therefore, there are a few things to keep in mind when cleansing dry skin. For example, cleansing should preserve the skin's protective acid mantle and not further damage the skin's protective barrier. The protective acid mantle of healthy skin has a pH value between 4 and 6.5 and protects the skin from drying out and external influences. Accordingly, it is best to use pH skin-neutral cleansing products.

The right cleanser for dry skin DOS
Cleansing milk or cleansing oil are particularly suitable for dry skin, because they usually contain lipid-replenishing ingredients that improve the skin's own protective functions.DONT'S
On the other hand, fat-free cleansing gels or even toners that contain alcohol are not the important choice for dry skin, as they further dry out the skin. Also, make sure that you do not stress the significantly thinner dry skin by using peelings too frequently.
