In winter the skin is often dry, tight and more sensitive. Cold air, wind and indoor heating take away moisture, and the skin is irritated more easily and turns red. With suitable care and plant-based products, the skin can feel softer and more comfortable. If you have atopic dermatitis, follow your dermatologist's instructions.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Dry and sensitive skin – what is happening?<\/h2>\n

The skin has a natural protective barrier of water and fats. When it is weaker, the skin loses moisture faster, feels dry and is prone to flaking and redness. This depends on the climate and on the care you give it. Especially in winter, when the air is drier and temperatures drop, dryness is felt more strongly.
\u041d\u0430\u0439-\u0447\u0435\u0441\u0442\u043e<\/strong> dry and sensitive skin is tight, rough to the touch and reddens easily. Warm showers, harsh cleansers and scratching irritate it further.<\/p>\n

Nourishing plant-based products, such as Skin Repairing Balm by Bulcanna<\/a><\/strong>, are a pleasant part of winter care.<\/p>\n

What affects dry skin<\/h2>\n

Dryness depends on a combination of factors.
Here are some of the main ones:<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

  1. A weaker skin barrier<\/strong>: When there are fewer lipids in the skin, it is more permeable and more easily irritated by external factors.<\/li>\n
  2. Dryness<\/strong>A: A lack of moisture in the skin causes it to irritate and peel more easily.<\/li>\n
  3. Environmental factors<\/strong>: Heat, cold, polluted air and harsh chemicals in cleaning products can make dryness worse.<\/li>\n
  4. Tiredness and tension<\/strong>: Busy periods show on the skin too, which looks more tired and dry.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

    What dry and sensitive skin looks like<\/h2>\n\n

    Dry and sensitive skin can usually be recognised by the following:<\/p>\n\n

    \n\n\n\n\n\n
    Dry skin<\/strong><\/td>\nThe most common sign: the skin loses softness, becomes rough and prone to cracking.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    Redness <\/strong><\/td>\nThe skin is more sensitive and often looks reddened, especially after cold, wind or warm water.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    Tightness<\/strong><\/td>\nA feeling of tight skin, especially after washing and in the cold. Regular moisturising softens it.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n


    When and where is dryness more pronounced?<\/h2>\n\n

    Dryness can appear at any age. It is felt most often on the hands, face, lips, knees and elbows, where the skin is exposed to cold and wind. The skin of babies and children is more delicate, so consult a paediatrician for them.<\/p>\n\n

    In a cold, dry winter the skin feels drier, while warm, humid weather sometimes brings comfort. That is why care changes with the season: richer textures in winter and lighter ones in summer.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
