“Dry skin” is often confused with “dehydrated skin.” Dry skin is a condition that is the lack of oil, while dehydration is a lack of moisture. Although you can have both conditions simultaneously, the treatment is very different depending on which element - oil or moisture - you lack in order to replenish.

While serums containing humectants treat dehydration, moisturizers that contain emollients help to seal the skin and prevent moisture from evaporating, while also minimizing dryness and roughness of the skin. Emollients such as refined plant-based oils are great moisturizing options, preventing the loss of moisture in the skin to the surrounding environment. For skin hydration, ingredients such as humectants can help bind water, keeping the skin well-hydrated and supple.

Q&A

How do I choose a moisturizer that is best suited for my skin?

Choose primarily based on your skin type behavior - namely the oil-to-water ratio of your skin - by choosing formulas that complement your natural condition. For example, if you have oil-prone skin, choose a moisturizer higher in water-based ingredients and lesser in oil-based ingredients to comfortably restore hydrated skin.

If you have dry skin (usually associated with lack of sebum), select a formula with a good amount of emollients to strengthen your barrier protection to prevent moisture loss. Secondarily, consider the skin concerns you have and seek out those with ingredients that address them, and lastly research about non-comedogenic and hypoallergenic formulas that are best free of fragrances, alcohol, and other irritation-prone ingredients.

Since plants do not have placenta and Skin Need products are vegan, why does this product contain placental extracts?

Plant placental extracts are primarily derived from the nutrients found in the embryos of plant fruits. These extracts contain a high concentration of amino acids, vitamins, and minerals that can naturally and effectively promote cell renewal, replacing aging skin cells, and help maintain a youthful and healthy complexion.
