Dry skin lack of lipids, in other words sebum, which facilitates the evaporation of water. Dry skin therefore has need to be nourished before being hydrated and should not be confused with dehydrated skin.

Dry skin often appears on the skin of the face, legs and hands:

• she is rough touch;
• She tension, especially after washing;
• She peeling, that is to say, it peels very easily;
• she is generally sensitive to climate change (hot, cold, wind, etc.).

With aging, dry skin often results in fine, but quite numerous, wrinkles.
