Dehydrated skin is defined by a deficit of water within the epidermis and dermis, regardless of whether the skin is dry, oily or combination. Reduced moisture retention, elevated transepidermal water loss and impaired barrier function lead to tightness, dullness, surface roughness and increased fine lines that appear more pronounced when hydration is not maintained.
This condition is often driven by environmental stressors, climate exposure, over-cleansing, microbiome disruption or inflammatory processes that compromise the skin’s ability to regulate water balance.
Supporting dehydrated skin requires restoring the mechanisms that enable proper hydration at a physiological level. This involves reinforcing barrier integrity, stabilising immune and microbial balance and helping the skin retain moisture rather than simply applying occlusive layers at the surface.
AWvi’s solutions address these foundations, guiding dehydrated skin toward more consistent comfort, improved texture and a steady return to equilibrium.
