The 5 best skincare ingredients for dry skin

If you’re constantly battling with skin that’s dry, tight, or dehydrated, it's time to find out what ingredients can help. These five ingredients should be some of the first things you look for in your skin care products…

  1. Aloe Vera

You may think Aloe Vera is just for treating sunburn, but it has many benefits, one of which is its ability to moisturize dry skin. It hydrates deeply, while soothing red, damaged or sensitive skin. So look for this one in all of your skin care products. 

  1. Glycolic Acid

Found naturally in sugarcane and fruits, glycolic acid is a popular ingredient for dry skin

because it’s effective on all skin types. It exfoliates and helps attract moisture to your skin, which can keep your face feeling hydrated throughout the day.

  1. Lactic Acid

If your skin is really, really dry (or even just a little dry), look at getting skin care products with this ingredient. It’s used as an exfoliating acid, but sloughing away dead skin cells is a powerful step in keeping dry skin in good shape—you have to be able to get the dead skin cells off in order to hydrate and moisturize the live cells. Lactic acid is very hydrating, and it will brighten your skin and give it a wonderful dewy glow.

  1. Hyaluronic Acid

A VIP in skincare products, hyaluronic acid is known for its ability to retain 1,000 times its weight in water, making it one of the most hydrating ingredients for your skin. Highly recommended for all skin types when hydration is needed.

  1. Glycerin

Glycerin is an ingredient that helps draw water to the skin. It is one of the most common hydrating ingredients seen on ingredients labels. A gentle giant, glycerin protects, heals and keeps moisturize in your skin wonderfully.
