What beauty routine should you adopt for dry to very dry skin?
Dry skin is tight, often rough and red. It suffers from dehydration and lacks suppleness and elasticity. Our solutions to restore the comfort of healthy skin!
Dry skin is tight, often rough and red. It suffers from dehydration and lacks suppleness and elasticity, resulting in a feeling of discomfort. To alleviate these problems, there's only one solution: adopt a dry skin routine to moisturize and nourish the epidermis on a daily basis. For optimum effectiveness, don't hesitate to include sea buckthorn-based products in this routine.
How to moisturize very dry skin
For days when you want to wear make-up
In the morning, after cleansing your face thoroughly, refresh it with organic toner or eau végétale. Then apply La Maison de l'Argousier sea buckthorn moisturizer or anti-aging cream, before moving on to the make-up step.
For make-up-free days
Cleanse your face in the same way as when applying make-up, and apply a small amount of sea buckthorn oil (just a few drops are enough). This oil is light and won't leave your face feeling greasy, as it's easily absorbed. You can therefore apply it during the day. If you want to make it even lighter, you can mix it with other oils such as grapeseed and jojoba. However, it's best not to apply make-up afterwards, as it won't last long.
Daily make-up removal
Whether you've worn make-up during the day or not, don't skip the make-up removal step, which will remove all traces of pollution, as well as impurities that have accumulated throughout the day (even if you can't see them). Use a cleansing oil or lotion, followed by a toner or hydrolat for really dry skin.
How to optimize your dry skin routine?
Drinking water
There are a few simple steps you can take to reduce the minor worries associated with dry skin. First of all, drink enough water every day. It may seem obvious, but many women don't drink enough during the day.
Wash your face with care

When you wash your face with tap water, always apply a protective oil, such assea buckthorn oil, beforehand. As tap water is often very hard, it has a tendency to dry out the skin and sometimes even attack it. By taking this small step on a daily basis, you will intensely moisturize your skin and avoid these inconveniences.
To replace tap water and maintain a feeling of freshness, you can use a hydrolat, which has the advantage of cleansing and refreshing in a single step.
Why choose sea buckthorn products?
An ingredient with many benefits
Including sea buckthorn products in your morning and evening skincare routine will enable you to benefit from the incredible moisturizing and anti-oxidizing power of the oil, which is extracted either from sea buckthorn seeds or from the pulp of the little berry. It also has the added advantage of being very rich in beta-carotene, providing an immediate healthy-glow effect.
Sea Buckthorn oil is also recognized for its high content of vitamins A, C and E and essential fatty acids (omega 6 and omega 3), helping to deeply nourish the skin while stimulating cell renewal.
Finally, sea buckthorn is an ally of sensitive and irritated skin, and by including it in your natural routine for dry skin, you'll effectively limit feelings of tightness and other discomforts.
