Drier Skin

Drier skin can become more noticeable in your 40s as natural oil production begins to slow and hormonal changes can affect the skin’s ability to retain moisture. You may notice increased tightness, roughness, flakiness, sensitivity or a complexion that appears less plump and radiant than it once did.

A consistent, targeted skincare routine can help replenish moisture and support a stronger, healthier-looking skin barrier. Gentle cleansing, hydrating serums, nourishing moisturisers and barrier-supporting ingredients such as ceramides can help reduce moisture loss and improve softness, comfort and resilience. Daily broad-spectrum SPF is also essential, as UV exposure can further weaken the skin barrier and contribute to dryness and premature ageing.

Professional treatments can further support drier skin by improving hydration, strengthening the skin barrier and supporting overall skin quality. Treatments designed to replenish moisture, soothe the skin and encourage healthy renewal can help create a smoother, softer and more radiant-looking complexion.

Lifestyle and environmental factors can also influence dryness. Hormonal changes, stress, sleep, hydration, weather, air conditioning, sun exposure and nutrition can all affect how dry or comfortable the skin feels, which is why a personalised approach can be especially beneficial throughout your 40s.
