Drink enough water
Drinking enough water helps increase skin's natural moisture. When the body is hydrated, the ability to retain moisture of the cornea layer (the outer layer of the skin) improves, thereby making the skin soft, smooth and limiting dryness and cracking. Water also helps the skin maintain elasticity and a healthy appearance from within.
Reduce hot shower time
Taking too long a hot bath can cause your skin to lose its natural moisture. High temperatures wash away the protective oil, making the skin dry, rough and prone to irritation. To keep your skin soft and smooth, you should shower with warm water or cool water and apply the same when washing your face.
Using a humidifier
A humidifier increases the humidity in the air in your room. Thanks to that, the skin can retain more moisture and maintain moisture. In addition, humidifiers are also a good solution in the winter when the air is dry.
Use sunscreen
Ultraviolet rays can reduce the skin's ability to retain water and dehydrate it. Use sunscreen to protect your skin from dehydration.
Exfoliate weekly
Exfoliation helps remove dead skin cells and allows skin care products to penetrate better into the skin. Exfoliate 1-2 times a week with products containing glycolic acid or hyaluronic acid. This can help keep the skin moist.
Use a moisturizing sleep mask
The skin may be dehydrated at night. Therefore, using a sleep mask can help provide beneficial ingredients and moisture to the skin.
