Dehydrated skin is a skin condition, like sensitive skin
is a skin condition, and so is rosacea and so on.
It isn’t dry skin. Dry skin lacks moisture, whereas
dehydrated skin contains moisture, but lacks hydration due to the way one
decides to live their life. Dehydrated skin is often confused with oily skin.
The comparison is this. Like oily skin, dehydrated skin has blackheads.
Difference is, blackheads are not as reoccurring as with oily skin. When
removing black heads with this skin condition, it remains at bay for a while
before returning. Because, this skin condition doesn’t produce enough oil, it
overcompensates by producing hydration in the T-zone, making a person believe
they have oily skin. Pores are not enlarged. Blemishes occur, mainly in the
cheek and chin area, making the blemishes, not acne hormonal. Dehydrated skin
does produce blemishes. Blemishes actually disappear when the person knows why they
are appearing, for example, lack of sleep, drinking too much caffeine, stress,
not drinking enough water, etc. Actually, there is a large population of people
who have dehydrated skin and don’t even know it. They mainly believe their skin
is oily. This skin condition actually has white flakes like dry skin, on the
chin and cheek area when it’s looked under a microscope, but not enough of it
to make it dry skin. Dry skin ages, dehydrated skin if not treated properly results
in cracked skin. Apply too much moisture, which a person shouldn’t do, results
in breakouts, not enough, results in break outs. Products designed for
normal-to-dry skin works. Products are being designed specifically for this
skin condition is appearing on the market. It will read hydrating, hydrate,
etc.
o Alcohol
o Hot Beverages (coffee, tea; including
herbal tea, hot chocolate)
o Weather: sun; even sun shining through a
window in your home or car, humidity, wind chill, cold weather, wind.
o Smoking: even if you are a second hand
smoker. Smoke on the face causes the skin to develop sensitivity.
o Environmental Aggressions: pollution, etc
o Drugs
o Spicy Foods
o Central Heating
o Central Air Conditioning
o Harsh Chemicals
o Preservatives: Parabens, Phthalates,
Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS or for short Sulfate) Sulfate is what causes
products to really foam. You can still have products that foam with sulfate.
So, toothpaste, hand soaps, shampoos, cleansers, etc., as well as other
preservatives. Parabens prolong beauty products life span.
o Using harsh skin care products on your
face
o Hot showers
o Steam
o Salt absorbs water
o Red Wine. Red wine is great for the
system internally, but horrible externally, causing permanent redness to the
skin, which leads to rosacea.
Dehydrated skin is something I have. For cleansers, I
love milk cleansers, milk baths, milk and honey baths in the winter, body
butters in the winter, exfoliating is so important for everyone. Products that
contain salicylic acid, glycolic acid remove blemishes. Acne is what oily skin
has, blemishes is what dehydrated skin has. It differs. Natural moisturizers that
are milk, oat, almond, olive, green tea based work well on my skin. Tomatoes
work well, also. Anything citrus, such as lemons, limes, grapefruit removes the
acne scars, as they are natural bleachers.
