What the heck are you even supposed to do when your skin is so dry, and you’ve tried EVERYTHING?

In this episode, your favorite holistic esthetician breaks it down for you, from hydrating your skin on a cell level to the effects cortisol has on your skin, making it drier, to what products will be the best option for you.

Takeaways:

* Dry skin is caused by a lack of oil, while dehydrated skin is caused by a lack of water.

* Proper hydration involves more than just drinking water; it requires a balance of electrolytes and water to be effectively utilized at the cellular level.

* Dry skin can be caused by seasonal allergies, chronic stress, a disrupted skin barrier, poor cell-to-cell communication, a lack of proper fat assimilation, and medical conditions or interventions.

* The top three favorite dry and dehydrated skin ingredients are marshmallow root, beta-glucan, and seaweed.

* When choosing skincare products, it's important to consider the ingredients, avoid strong synthetic emulsifiers, and listen to your skin's response.
