Dry skin is primarily attributed to both advancing age and harsh environmental conditions.   Generally, dry skin sufferers end up with itchy, scaly textures due to either damage in their skin’s protective barriers or a reduction in the skin’s moisture-retaining molecules.

Daily dry skin treatments are crucial to individuals whose skin tends to lose precious natural oils easily.  More than just simple moisturizing, though, people should be looking for solutions that integrate protection and repair to restore skin back to its natural glow and sufficiently maintain it.

Bad Dry Skin Treatments

Some dry skin treatments quickly bring your skin up to a noticeable level of improvement as soon as you apply it.  While that’s all well and good, they’re usually just smoke and mirrors that end up doing your skin more harm than good in the long run.  You’ll generally recognize these products by their active ingredients, which usually include mineral oils, glycerin, petrolatum and similar mineral oils, chemical thickeners, detergents and emulsifiers.  Almost every major cosmetic manufacturer - Ponds, Lancome, Olay - has brands intended for this effect and you should really be wary of them.

Good Dry Skin Treatments

For real dry skin treatment that lasts, look for products that contain natural biological ingredients instead of the above solutions.   Good biological components to look for include rose hip oil, olive oil, CoQ10 enzymes  and polypedptides.  More than simply hydrating your skin for the short term, these dry skin treatments will help repair damaged areas and increase the concentration of water-holding sugar and protein molecules, without harming your skin like harsh chemicals do.
