Dry skin, medically known as xerosis, occurs when the skin loses moisture and essential oils, leading to a compromised skin barrier. Several factors contribute to this condition, including:

1. Environmental Factors: Exposure to harsh weather conditions, low humidity levels, and excessive sun exposure can strip the skin of its natural oils, resulting in dryness.
2. Genetics: Individuals with a genetic predisposition may have naturally drier skin due to differences in sebum production and skin structure.
3. Age: As we age, the skin's ability to retain moisture decreases, leading to increased dryness and potential skin barrier damage.
4. Underlying Skin Conditions: Certain skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis can exacerbate dryness and cause further irritation.
5. Lifestyle Factors: Poor skincare habits, including excessive bathing with harsh soaps, can disrupt the skin's moisture balance and exacerbate dryness.

Transepidermal water loss (TEWL) refers to the process by which water evaporates from the skin's surface into the surrounding environment. In individuals with dry skin, TEWL rates are often higher, indicating increased moisture loss and impaired skin barrier function. This phenomenon can exacerbate dryness, leading to discomfort, itchiness, and skin sensitivity.

Effects of Dry Skin on the Skin Barrier:

The skin barrier, composed of lipids, proteins, and corneocytes, plays a crucial role in maintaining skin hydration and protecting against external aggressors. However, in individuals with dry skin, the skin barrier may become compromised, resulting in several adverse effects, including:

• Increased Sensitivity: A weakened skin barrier can lead to heightened skin sensitivity, making the skin more prone to irritation and inflammation.
• Flakiness and Rough Texture: Dry skin often manifests as flakiness and roughness, giving the skin a dull and uneven appearance.
• Prone to Cracking and Irritation: Severely dry skin may crack, leading to discomfort, pain, and an increased risk of infection.
• Delayed Wound Healing: Impaired skin barrier function can hinder the skin's ability to heal wounds and injuries effectively.

Addressing dry skin requires a multifaceted approach aimed at restoring moisture, repairing the skin barrier, and preventing further moisture loss. Here are some recommended solutions and top-tier Korean skincare products specifically formulated to combat dry skin effectively:
