- Can affect any skin type

How to tell the difference:

If you gentle pinch the skin and the skin takes a few seconds to bounce back into place it is ypically dehydrated, if it bounces back immediately it is likely dryness.

Treatments and Products:

To treat dry skin you would want to use thicker/ richer face moisturizers and barrier repairing products. To treat dehydrated skin you want to make sure you are hydrating the body from within (drinking a lot of water and using electrolytes) and also using a water based moisturizing product as well as a hyaluronic acid.
