Cleaning and care of dry skin

Sebamed cleansing and care for dry facial skin are intended for people who experience tightness, roughness, flaking, redness or discomfort after washing the face. Dry facial skin often has a weakened protective barrier, which makes it lose moisture more easily and become more sensitive to external factors such as cold weather, wind, sun, air conditioning, heating and aggressive cleansing products.

Within the Sebamed range at ApotekaOnline, you can find products for gentle cleansing, toning, hydration and day-and-night care of dry and sensitive facial skin. Sebamed is known for formulas with a pH value of 5.5, which supports the skin’s natural acid mantle and helps preserve its barrier function.

Why does dry facial skin need a special routine?

For dry facial skin, simply applying cream is often not enough. The first step is proper cleansing, because aggressive soaps, strong gels and drying products can further weaken the skin barrier. When the skin is stripped too much, tightness, stinging and roughness may occur, and the face may look tired, dull and more prone to redness.

That is why a routine for dry skin should be gentle but complete: mild cleansing, alcohol-free toner, hydrating day care and richer night repair. Sebamed products for dry facial skin are designed to cleanse and care for the skin without unnecessary drying.

Gentle cleansing – the first step for dry facial skin

For dry facial skin, cleansing should be effective but not aggressive. The goal is not to strip the skin completely, but to remove make-up, impurities and excess sebum while preserving the natural protective layer.

Sebamed Visio Gentle Cleansing Milk is intended for thorough facial cleansing and make-up removal without a feeling of dryness, tightness or irritation. The formula is especially useful for people whose skin often feels tight or stings after washing.

Alcohol-free toner for freshness and comfort

After cleansing milk, a toner can help complete the routine, leaving the skin fresh and prepared for the next care step. For dry skin, it is important to choose toners that do not contain alcohol and do not leave a stinging or drying sensation.

Sebamed Visio Gentle Facial Toner is an alcohol-free toner formulated for cleansing and hydrating the face without drying the skin. It can be a good choice for everyday routines for dry and sensitive skin.

Hydration and daily care for dry facial skin

During the day, dry skin needs hydration, protection and a feeling of comfort. Daily care products should help preserve moisture, reduce tightness and support the skin barrier, without a heavy feeling or additional irritation.

Sebamed Visio Hydro Gel can be a good option when the skin needs hydration and a light feeling of freshness, while Sebamed Visio Day Cream provides everyday care for dry and sensitive facial skin.

Night repair for dry and sensitive skin

At night, the skin naturally repairs itself, so dry skin often responds well to richer and more nourishing care. A night cream should help reduce the feeling of dryness, tightness and roughness, especially in skin that easily loses moisture during the day.

Sebamed Night Cream for Dry Skin and Sebamed Anti-Dry Night Face Cream are intended for skin that needs more intensive night repair, nourishment and soothing care.

Sebamed pH 5.5 – support for the skin’s natural protection

One of the main characteristics of Sebamed products is the pH value of 5.5, which corresponds to the skin’s natural acid mantle. In dry and sensitive skin, preserving this protective layer is especially important because skin with a weakened barrier loses moisture more easily and becomes more prone to irritation.

With regular use of gentle cleansing products and suitable hydrating care, the skin may feel softer, more comfortable to the touch and more resistant to everyday external factors.

How to create a Sebamed routine for dry facial skin?

• In the morning: gently cleanse the face with cleansing milk or toner, then apply day cream for dry and sensitive skin.
