Extra dry skin does not produce enough lipids to protect itself and maintain its hydration naturally. The skin cells lose their ability to retain water. The skin barrier does not plays its protective role any longer. The skin feels tight, stings and is uncomfortable. In some cases, extra-dry skin shows signs of atopy. Atopic skin is characterised by excessive dryness that may appear as red eczemous red patches, itchiness, inflammation and even oozing. This type of skin is linked to genetic or environmental factors. Therefore, opt for fragrance free and hypoallergenic products and adopt the right habits (wear cotton clothes, moderate bath or shower temperature). For extra dry skin with an atopic tendency, LAINO has specifically designed the Intense Nourishing Care with extract of olive oil and vitamin E.
