Rescue Dry Skin with Skin Boosters
Dry skin is dull, rough and more prone to wrinkles and fine lines. Give “thirsty” and dehydrated skin a mega-dose of hydration with The Clifford Clinic skin boosters.
Why does skin become dry?
Some people are just genetically predisposed to dry skin. However, your skin can also lose moisture because of environment and lifestyle. These include:
- Climate. Humidity, cold temperatures from office airconditioning and sun exposure can all dry out the skin.
- Overcleansing. Harsh cleansers and toners can strip the skin of its natural oils.
- Allergic reactions. Your skin can become itchy and flaky because of a reaction to food, skincare product, or an environmental allergen like dust or pollen.
- Medications. Some drugs used to treat cholesterol and high blood pressure have side effects that include dry or sensitive skin.
- Health conditions. Diabetes, hypothyroidism, eczema and other health conditions can dry out the skin. This may be due to changes in hormone levels.
- Diet. Your body needs nutrients and water to produce healthy skin cells and maintain the natural moisture barrier. Replace fast food meals and diuretics like soda or coffee with fruits, vegetables, fish that have healthy fatty acids, and low-fat proteins.
- Ageing. As we grow older, the skin doesn’t produce as much natural moisture. Our cell turnover and production also slows down. This leads to skin that is dry, rough and prone to flaking.
How can skin boosters help dry skin?
