FAQ's

1. What is the difference between dry skin and dehydrated skin?
Dry skin lacks oil, while dehydrated skin lacks water. Even oily skin can become dehydrated due to factors like weather, harsh cleansers, or over-exfoliation. Dehydrated skin may feel tight, dull, or flaky.

2. Which Paula’s Choice products are best for dehydrated skin?
Look for products with hyaluronic acid, glycerin, ceramides, and omega fatty acids. Customer favourites include the Water-Infusing Electrolyte Moisturizer, Omega+ Complex Serum, and Hyaluronic Acid Booster.

3. Can I use products for dehydrated skin if I have oily or acne-prone skin?
Yes. Paula’s Choice offers lightweight, non-comedogenic formulas that hydrate without clogging pores, making them ideal for oily or acne-prone skin types.

4. How do I know if my skin is dehydrated?
Signs of dehydration include tightness, dullness, fine lines, or skin that looks tired even with moisturiser. A simple pinch test (pinching the cheek lightly) can help—you may notice skin doesn’t bounce back quickly.

5. How can I keep my skin hydrated throughout the day?
Use a hydrating toner or mist, apply a moisturizer with humectants, and avoid harsh cleansers or over-exfoliating. Drink plenty of water and consider layering hydrating serums under your moisturizer.
