Insider Skincare Tips for Aging/Dry Skin

Aging/Dry Skin looks and feels like this:

If you feel dry regularly, it is important to make sure you avoid washing your face with hot water as it can further dry out your skin taking with it any natural lipids or oil your skin is producing.
Choosing a proper cleanser that cleans without stripping the skin is key. Control Corrective’s Sensitive Skin Cleansing Milk not only cleanses and hydrates, it aims to restore balance to the skin. Most over-the-counter soaps and many cleansers can strip the skin and clients feel forever dry no matter what they do after cleansing.
The appearance of dry skin can vary in degree, however all dry skin must replenish the transepidermal water loss (TEWL), particularly prevalent in very dry, warm climates, as well as cold, dry areas. Several of the Control Corrective serums contain hyluronic acid (aka sodium hyaluronate) which acts as a humectant to draw 10,000 times it weight in water deep into the parched epidermal tissues, thereby giving the skin the “youthful, hydrated glow” and feeling much more supple and normalized. These are referred to as “hydrators.”
Since many of us have combination/dry skin, you want to consider adding products for certain areas of the face/neck/body that can target the dryness in that area. For example, Control Corrective’s Intensive Body Smoothing Lotion is a treatment lotion that reduces the flaky, sun damaged and very dry skin on the declote’, arms and legs, elbows and areas that need a stronger exfoliating solution to normalize the skin.
