Dry Skin

Whether or not you can use retinol serum daily depends on your skin's sensitivity and tolerance. For dry skin, it’s advisable to start with 2–3 nights a week to avoid over-drying or irritation. Gradually increase usage as your skin adjusts. Pair it with a hydrating moisturizer to combat dryness and boost hydration.

For optimal results, it’s best to moisturize both morning and night. Morning moisturizers should lock in hydration and protect the skin, ideally with added SPF. At night, opt for a richer formula to repair and replenish your skin while you sleep.

Hydrating dry skin involves a combination of the right products and consistent skin care habits:

• Use a hydrating cleanser that doesn’t strip skin.
• Layer a hydrating serum to attract moisture.
• Seal pores with a rich moisturizer to prevent water loss.
• Don't forget hydrating masks and regular sun protection to maintain a healthy moisture balance.

This depends on the type of cleanser you’re using, but most cleansers should be applied to wet skin for better distribution and effectiveness. Wetting your skin first ensures the cleanser creates the necessary lather or emulsion to clean effectively without causing dryness.

A cleansing balm is designed to remove makeup, sunscreen, and impurities without stripping the skin of its natural oils. It’s particularly beneficial for dry skin because it nourishes while cleansing. Some cleansing balms melt away debris while infusing your skin with hydration, leaving it soft and supple.
