And what can we do to repair it?
Dryness, roughness, cracking: the skin of the body can become a real battlefield, especially in areas such as elbows, knees e heels. But have you ever asked yourself why precisely these areas are so vulnerable?
Why does the skin get dry (especially in certain places)?
The answer is simpler (and more surprising) than it seems:
-
Fewer sebaceous glands: areas such as elbows, knees and heels naturally produce less sebum, so they have less natural lipid protection.
-
Rubbing and pressure: these areas are subjected to constant microtrauma: bending, leaning, rubbing against clothes or hard surfaces.
-
Greater skin thickness: here the skin is more thick and tends to harden, becoming less elastic and more prone to cracking.
These factors are compounded by external conditions:
-
Cold and wind, which accelerate moisture loss.
-
Limestone water and harsh detergents, which damage the skin barrier.
-
Showers that are too hot, which dissolve the skin's protective lipids.
Skin loses water faster than it can retain it, becomes dehydrated, thickened and cracked.
How to repair dry skin and prevent damage?
To transform skin from rough to soft and healthy, it only takes a few but important steps:
1️⃣ Gentle exfoliation
Removing dead skin cells facilitates the absorption of the active ingredients in treatments. Choose gentle exfoliants that respect the skin's balance without attacking it.
2️⃣ Targeted hydration and nourishment
Immediately after showering-when skin is most receptive-apply rich, nourishing creams that create a protective but breathable film.
Rely on Moisture Balm from the N|skin Care line, body moisturizer suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. Lhis lightweight, non-greasy formula absorbs quickly, leaving skin extraordinarily soft, smooth and revitalized without any feeling of heaviness.
