Dry skin is characterised by reduced lipid content, insufficient sebum production and compromised moisture retention. The barrier is more permeable, transepidermal water loss is elevated and the microbiome tends to be less diverse and more reactive.
This results in sensations of tightness, rough texture, dullness and a heightened sensitivity to environmental stressors. Over time, chronic dryness accelerates the appearance of fine lines and contributes to reduced elasticity due to persistent barrier strain and inflammatory signalling.
Supporting dry skin requires replenishing lipids, reinforcing barrier structure and restoring physiological hydration dynamics rather than simply adding moisture at the surface.
AWvi’s solutions address the foundations of this imbalance by stabilising immune responses, strengthening the barrier matrix and helping the skin recover its natural protective functions.
