How To Improve Dry Skin

+ Drink more water! 💦 Typically, the average person should drink about half their body weight in ounces a day- more if you're more active! Water is the most common nutritional deficiency in the American population! 😱 So, drink up!

+ Avoid diuretic beverages like coffee, fruit juices, alcohol, etc. 🍻 Or at the very least- hydrate before you drink a diuretic.

+ Maintain proper mineral balance in your body! 🧂 Add a pinch of good quality mineral sea salt to your water so you can hydrate on a cellular level! @redmondrealsalt @celticseasalt

+ Healthy dietary FATS! Eat a variety of *quality* healthy fats. 🥑🥓🥩🥥🐟 For example: grass-fed butter, ghee, coconut oil, avocado oil, olive oil, tallow, nuts and seeds, fatty fish, etc.

+ Quality topical products with *safe* ingredients! Heyyy, @beautycounter! 😘 Outside of diet, you can help treat dry skin with topical products.

- Exfoliation: The Overnight Resurfacing Peel is a game changer. It's made of a blend of botanical acids that help to gently exfoliate your skin while you sleep! (No, your skin won’t peel!) Exfoliation is important as it gets rid of dead, dry skin so your skin can better absorb serums, oils and moisturizers!

- Serum or Moisturizer: A good serum or moisturizer will contain hyaluronic acid! This ingredient helps to draw moisture back into your skin. Beautycounter offers multiple moisturizers and serums- but a good baseline for all skin types would be the Countermatch Adaptive Moisture Lotion and the Countermatch Intense Moisture Serum. 🥳 I’ve samples of both!

- Facial Oils: Another awesome option for adding moisture back into your skin!! Beatuycounter offers three different facial oils: No. 1: Brightening Vitamin C Oil. No. 2: Anti-aging Oil. No. 3: Balancing Oil: good for acne-prone skin.
