skin, your skin type is likely dry. Dry skin occurs when there is a lower release of sebum,
an oily natural substance that forms a protective barrier on the skin and keeps it
hydrated.
There are several factors that cause this deficiency in sebum production, such as
genetic predisposition, dry weather, very hot showers, certain diseases such as
atopic dermatitis and psoriasis, as well as the use of products not indicated for this
skin type, such as harsh soaps with a high alcohol concentration.
3 common mistakes that make dry skin worse
Mistake 1: Showers with very hot water remove the layer of oil that protects our
skin, and this ends up aggravating dryness. Prioritize lukewarm water and, when finished,
apply a body moisturizer, such as the Cacay Vital Body Lotion on more exposed areas. This will help restore the skin's protective barrier.
Mistake 2: Hydration also comes from the inside out. Drink at least 2 liters of water a day
to keep your body hydrated and help your skin retain moisture and prevent
dryness.
Mistake 3: Sun rays are very harmful to dry skin. Therefore, the use of sunscreen is
indispensable, even on cloudy days.
