All skin types are prone to dehydration.<\/p>\n

Dehydrated skin is skin whose epidermis lacks water. It is a temporary condition and not a specific skin type like oily or dry skin. You can have dry or oily skin that is dehydrated.<\/p>\n

It is important to distinguish between dehydrated skin and dry skin. Dry skin does not produce enough lipids. These lipids form what is known as the hydrolipidic film (protective barrier) on the skin’s surface.<\/p>\n

Consequently, the clinical symptoms of dehydration include feelings of tightness, redness, dullness and discomfort, which in extreme cases can lead to the appearance of scabs. It also causes fine lines of dehydration across the entire skin.<\/p>\n

\u2192 Why does skin become dehydrated?<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n

The skin’s water content is 70%. This water undergoes a natural evaporation process.<\/p>\n

The hydrolipidic film acts as a \u00ab\u00a0barrier\u00a0\u00bb against external aggressions and also prevents water from evaporating. Furthermore, if this hydrolipidic film becomes weakened, water will evaporate, causing dehydration and leaving the skin dry and dehydrated.<\/p>\n
