The root causes of dry skin are varied, but can often be linked back to dietary habits like dehydration and lack of healthy fats, as well as seasonal imbalances in our environment like centralized heating, low humidity and hot shower water.

When we disrupt the integrity of our natural skin barrier, we are no longer retaining water and moisture, it evaporates into the external environment which leads to dullness, dry patches and visible fine lines.

In cooler, dry months it's important to use skincare products that contain effective moisturizing ingredients that won't cause irritation and promote a healthy balance of sebum. Try these nourishing skincare rituals for noticeably hydrated and healthy-looking skin.

Exfoliate

Gently polish away dull, dry patches with our Facial Polish and Mask collection. Reveal a smooth, refined complexion to improve the absorption and efficacy of your topical moisturizers for a lasting natural glow.

Treat

Apply your favourite .eluo. powder blend as an indulgent mask, which will penetrate beautifully into open and cleansed pores. For dry skin, we recommend Forma Rosea activated with plain yogurt or raw honey and a few drops of Forma Oleum.

Protect

Add a few drops of Forma Oleum to your favorite moisturizing cream (or use on its own) to bathe your skin in nourishing lipids and plant ceramide protection to support your natural oil barrier and seal in moisture.
