Dehydrated skin or Dry Skin? Is there such a difference?

Even though dehydrated skin and dry skin are treated slightly the same, under the light of skincare, they are completely different.

We usually say Dry Skin, when is associated with a type. That person has dry skin, or he/she has dry skin.

On the other hand, Dehydrated skin is a situation of how the skin is like. It is associated with a circumstance, a temporary condition.

Everybody agrees that both are annoying, can’t curse ladies! At least here!

The reality of the matter is that to treat one or another, the best thing to do is understand the differences, so you can enjoy flawless skin!

The image below is the best way to see the differences, and then further ahead, the details on each of the aspects.

 

Diagnosis – The best way to self-checking dry skin is to rub the skin close to the eyebrows, and corner of your nose. If it feels like sandpaper, or flaky, and itchy.

Dehydrated skin, on the flip side, is revealed easily when minor face movements, or when lightly squeezed, wrinkles emerge easily.

Is it possible to have dry skin and dehydrated skin at the same time?

Yes, it is. And it’s more common than we can imagine. 

Someone could have inherited dry skin, which we saw that it’s lack of oil, on the skin, and at the same time, due to a weather circumstance, forgot to put a humidifier, or stays long hours on air conditioning.

How to spot on the eye, dehydrated skin, and dry skin?

While in dry skin it becomes easy to spot redness, feel itchiness, and flaky skin, dehydrated skin may accentuate deep lines and dark circles under the eyes.

This is one of the reasons that some people can look tired but in reality, it’s just a lack of moisture on the skin.

See, easy to check and easy to treat. 

On one side you have can treat skin cells with more water – hydrating the skin with a serum, for example.

On the other hand, delivering oil, through a moisturizer, will help to trap water into the skin.

Treating the skin with a serum, to hydrate the skin, and then after, a moisturizer, it’s the assurance that you’re covering dry skin and dehydrated skin.

Exfoliation for Dry & Dehydrated Skin

Exfoliation is a great starting point when dealing with dry & dehydrated skin.

At least once a week, when you’re in the cleansing step, which is your first step, consider exfoliating the skin. 

Exfoliation removes all the built-up dead skin cells, which can lead to other skin issues, such as breakouts, once pores may get clogged.

There are many ways to exfoliate the skin, one of them is through Salicylic Acid, known to unglue stubborn dead skin cells, making it an easier way for serums to do their jobs.

#Pro-Tip – One thing to look for in Salicylic Acid is the lowest pH possible. A low pH in salicylic acid for example is 4.5. and that means more efficiency, more exfoliation results, without irritation.

Why a Serum is important for dehydrated skin?

Serums have smaller molecules, which are easily absorbed by the skin. 

The purest they are, the better the chances of reaching the deepest layers of the skin, where hyaluronic acid, collagen, and elastin are naturally produced.

That means the serum is nourishing the skin, making it possible for youthful skin cells to flourish, revealing healthy-looking skin.

As this is a very important step for dehydrated skin, bear in mind that active ingredients such as hyaluronic acid and antioxidants play a vital role in a youthful lifted appearance.

Hyaluronic Acid is the same active ingredient used in injection dermal fillers, which holds 1000x its weight in water. That means plumper skin.

Snow mushroom extract became one of the top hits in skincare lately…

The reason why is that snow mushroom extract has 400x the hydrating power of hyaluronic acid.

This in practical terms means plumper skin, followed by feeling more elastic, and better tone.

We can’t stress enough at this point, how important the X3 Face Volumizer is.

Besides carrying snow mushroom extract in its formulation, it also carries hyaluronic acid, ashwagandha, and fruit extracts.

Making it an incredible serum for those looking for immediate plumpness, elasticity & tone.

Enhanced plumpness, elasticity, and tone

When we hear customers saying that they feel that they hit a wall, we immediately pull the X3 Revitalizing Stem-Cells Serum Card.

The logic is also very simple. The X3 Revitalizing Stem-Cells Serum is THE State-of-The-Art Serum. 

Not only because it is loaded with powerful antioxidants such as lilac stem-cells, but also tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate, the best Vitamin-C source for the skin, associated with hyaluronic acid, and marine algae peptides.

Combined, these two serums, (X3 Face Volumizer and X3 Revitalizing Stem-Cells Serum) are unbeatable. 

What’s the best moisturizer for dry skin?

The best moisturizer for dry skin without a doubt is the X3 Firming Peptide Cream.

When people are dealing with dry skin, the main issue to address is the lack of oil production the skin is supposed to release.

This issue compromises the natural production of oil on the skin, which is the skin’s natural barrier.

That’s why the result is redness, itchiness, and flaky skin.

Not a big deal if you have the X3 Firming Peptide Cream, The best response to dry skin.

Formulated with 99.9% purity levels of top-notch antioxidants, such as Lipochroman, and Chromabright, associated with marine firming peptides.  

Trapping water (hydration) of skin cells, improving dramatically the appearance of lines, wrinkles, and age spots.

Usually, dry skin is associated with sensitive skin and the good news is that the X3 Firming Peptide Cream is also safe for sensitive skin.

Drink Water. The most affordable solution for dry & dehydrated skin

We can’t stress enough that 8-12 glasses of water a day is the most affordable way to deal with dry & dehydrated skin.

Its availability is abundant, and besides helping to hydrate skin cells from the inside out, eliminate toxins from the body, and support delivering nutrients to all the billions of cells.

#Pro-Tip: Consider natural juices, giving some flavor to water intake. 

Loaded with fruits & veggies, such as this delicious healthy smoothie, good for the skin.

A Healthy Smoothie good for the skin

• 1 Banana
• 1 Handful of spinach
• 1-2 Dates (depending on calorie intake)
• 3 Tbs of Oatmeal
• 4Oz of Cold Coconut Water (add ice if necessary)
• 1 Pinch of cinnamon

Mix everything in a blender for 1 minute, add ice cubs at taste & drink cold.

This smoothie has everything the skin needs. Water, proteins, minerals, antioxidants, fiber, and anti-aging properties.

Be careful though with hot showers… not good for the skin

There’s a chance you heard about this already, but it’s fair to mention that hot showers are a no-no for the skin, once the skin’s natural barrier is removed.

Especially during the winter, when we naturally have the tendency to boost the heater some degrees up!

A Humidifier can help your skin thrive in a dry environment

Remember when we mentioned previously, that the environment plays an important role on the skin?

That’s when a humidifier can support the skin under a dry environment.

Sometimes, the need of modifying the environment reaches a point that a humidifier is one of the biggest acquisitions for the skin.

A good way to take advantage of that is to turn on a humidifier at night, while you sleep. It will help the quality of the air you’re breathing, as well as, keeping the skin moisturized.

Can Alcohol and Coffee be considered enemies for the skin?

Although there are scientific studies showing that coffee does not affect the hydration of the skin, it’s good to remember that it is considered a diuretic. 

That means you’ll need to go to the bathroom more than usual, eliminating more water.

Alcohol, on the other hand, is not good at all, no matter if ingested or topically applied on the skin.

Definitely, a villain to the skin as it directly causes dehydration. And as we saw in the previous topics, accentuated dehydration skin leads to deeper lines & wrinkles.

The best deal to restore hydration and moisture to the skin

People always ask for recommendations, when looking for solutions to deal with lack of hydration and lack of moisture on the skin.

The best deal we can offer is the X3 UFlawless Period

When you save $85 we can say it’s a steal of a deal!

You have the combination of years of dermatologic studies, and clinical testing with 4 products, that we can’t emphasize enough how your skin will love this combo.

The 3 steps to replenish skin’s natural hydration.

Cleansing is the first step, with natural ingredients, such as chamomile, ginger, and marine peptides, which help deep cleanse the skin, without removing the skin’s natural moisture.

Hydrolyzed Algin, one of the natural active ingredients of this award-winning cleanser, is 30x smaller than our pores, making it an easier way to better absorb the upcoming ingredients.

Treatment Serum is the second step. Using nothing less than the X3 Face Volumizer and the X3 Revitalizing Stem-Cells Serum.

Snow mushroom extract to plump your skin (H4) 

Just reminding you that the X3 Face Volumizer has a combination of natural active ingredients, formulated to plump your skin, thanks to snow mushroom extract – 400x the hydrating power of hyaluronic acid.

The moisturizer that won’t make your skin dry.

Last but not least, our third step. Moisturize.
