What it is
Dullness and lack of hydration refer to skin that appears tired, lifeless, and lacks a healthy glow. This condition is characterised by a rough texture, an uneven tone, and a general lack of vibrancy. When the skin is dehydrated, it can also lead to dryness, making the complexion look older and more fatigued.
Causes
- Environmental factors: Exposure to pollution, harsh weather, and UV rays can strip the skin of its natural oils and moisture, leading to dullness and dehydration.
- Dehydration: Insufficient water intake can lead to dehydrated skin, which appears dry and lacklustre.
- Poor skincare routine: Using the wrong skincare products or neglecting proper skincare can fail to replenish the skin’s moisture.
- Ageing: As we age, the skin’s ability to retain moisture decreases, resulting in dryness and a dull appearance.
- Lifestyle choices: Habits such as smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, and a poor diet can significantly impact skin hydration and overall radiance.
Signs and symptoms
- Dry, flaky skin: A lack of moisture can cause the skin to become dry and flaky.
- Rough texture: Dehydrated skin often feels rough to the touch due to the accumulation of dead skin cells.
- Uneven skin tone: Dull skin can result in a patchy or uneven complexion.
- Lack of radiance: The skin appears tired and lacks a healthy, youthful glow.
- Fine lines and wrinkles: Dehydration can accentuate fine lines and wrinkles, making them more noticeable.
Skincare tips
- Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day to keep your skin hydrated from the inside out.
- Use moisturiser: Apply a good quality moisturiser daily to help lock in moisture.
- Avoid harsh products: Choose gentle skincare products that do not strip the skin of its natural oils.
- Sun protection: Always use sunscreen to protect your skin from UV damage.
- Healthy diet: Eat a balanced diet rich in vitamins and antioxidants to support skin health.
