Surface dryness - fine wrinkles

Surface dehydration creates so much confusion on the skin. The most common sub-condition I see is surface dryness or surface dehydration, where the skin
"type" is oily and congested with dryness on top.
In this case, most people feel they have dry skin, because the surface of the skin is dry and sometimes flaky. It's important to be aware of the difference between a skin
"type" and its sub-condition. In this models case, she is very surface dry and has a combination skin type. The outer layer of her skin has no protective barrier and is lacking any hydration, therefore, very fine lines are seen all over her forehead where she is also getting unprotected sun exposure.
It's important to use a cleanser that is cleansing on the skin, but does not make your skin feel tight and squeaky clean. A squeaky, clean tight skin will cause dryness of the outer layer and not allow your treatment products (serum and moisturizer) to be absorbed into your skin. You always want to keep your skin soft and supple to the touch.
Adjust your skin care regimen seasonally or if going on vacation where the climate is vastly different. #sundamage #dryskin #surfacedryskin #dehydratedskin #wrinkles #finewrinkles #understandingskin
