7 Tips for Keeping Your Skin Hydrated

Your skin requires continuous attention as it is the largest organ in the human body. If your skin is dull and itchy then it’s the result of dehydration. Many people have a misconception that dry skin and dehydrated skin are the same however the reality is different.

I, myself had this misconception, therefore, I contacted the top dermatologists in Peshawar and after that, I understood the major difference between these two skin issues. The dry skin occurs due to the lack of essential oils in your skin while dehydrated skin occurs due to the lack of water.

List of 7 Ways for Keeping Skin Hydrated

Dehydration of the skin can result in skin dullness & itchiness, under-eye circles, and sunken eyes. Therefore to keep your skin healthy and beautiful you have to keep it hydrated. But How? Let’s get into the details of the 7 ways that will help you to keep your skin hydrated.

1.       Use Moisturizer

The first way to keep your skin hydrated is by using moisturizer. Many of you people have the moisturizer however your skin is still dehydrated. Why? Because your moisturizer does not have hydrating ingredients. Therefore change your moisturizer and buy the one that contains hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid.

2.       Try Water-Based Skin Care Products

If you are using any skincare products then make sure they are also water-based skincare. In this way, you will not only keep your skin oil-free but also hydrated. There are numerous brands that are producing such products so choose the one that best suits your skin.

3.       Use Facial Spray

During the day you can also use facial spray for keeping your skin hydrated. In case, if you are traveling to some hot weather country like Pakistan, Egypt or India keep the facial spray in your bag and keep spraying the liquid on your face after every few hours, to keep the skin hydrated.

4.       Use Face Mask

Besides moisturizers, water-based skincare products, and facial spray, you can also use face masks. Face mask, not only remove the impurities from your skin but it also keeps your skin hydrated and fresh. Therefore, use face masks of any trusted brand for keeping your skin fresh.

5.       Avoid Long Steamy Showers

Long steamy showers are not good for your skin as they take away the moisture from your skin especially in winters. Therefore avoid such showers and try to take warm showers instead. Moreover, after taking a shower apply the moisturizer on your skin.

6.       Try Humidifier

If you are living in a country that has severe cold weather then your surrounding air will be dry and it will affect your skin. Therefore you can also use a humidifier to add moisture in the air and keep your skin hydrated.

7.       Think beyond Moisturizer (Eat Healthy)

Besides the use of all the health care products, you should also make a significant change in your meal plan. Start eating those foods that keep the skin hydrated. You can eat coconut, avocado, oatmeal, sweet potatoes, wild salmon, carrots, dark leafy greens, nuts & seeds, and eggs. All of these items are helpful for maintaining the health of the skin.
