Sebamed for Dry Skin
An Honest Alternative for Sensitive Skin
PUT YOURSELF ON THE PATH TO HEALING WITH THIS SKIN CARE GUIDE!
Help! I have DRY SKIN! How can Sebamed help me?
Extremely dry skin is awful. It itches, bleeds, stings, and results in unsightly red patches on the skin. This happens when our skin barriers lose vital oil and water. What’s worse is that anyone, at any age, can get dry and damaged skin for a number of reasons. But, fear not. By recognizing the factors that lead to dry skin and its symptoms, you’re already well on your way to healing.
Because there are many harsh soaps and lotions on the market today that can easily irritate the skin, Sebamed is here to help.
Our cleansers, lotions, and creams can:
1help soothe your dry skin symptoms
2restore your skin's natural barrier
3promote healthy skin with our pH 5.5 formulation

Dry Skin DOs and DONTs:
Dry Skin DOs and DONTs:
DON'T scratch the itchy skin.
DO visit a dermatologist to get a qualified diagnosis and treatment.
DON'T use soaps or neutral skin cleansers, but wash your skin with pH 5.5 products (e.g. Sebamed's Liquid Face & Body Wash).
DON'T shower more than once a day and more than 10 minutes each time regularly.
DO use water not warmer than 95° F.
DO avoid frequent, long soaks in the bath tub - it may make your skin more dry and cause irritation.
DO apply creams or lotions on your skin regularly, at least every day, and up to 4 times a day on affected areas.
DO choose skin care products with a pH of 5.5, which helps to restore the deficient barrier function of your skin against water loss.
DO use creams and lotions with high moisturizing, emollient, and protective efficacy (e.g. Sebamed Anti-Dry Day Defense Cream, Sebamed Anti-Dry Night Intensive Cream, Sebamed Anti-Dry Hydrating Body Lotion).
DO identify trigger factors for eczema and try to avoid them. If stress plays a role, try relaxation techniques (e.g. yoga, meditation).
DO install an air humidifier in air-conditioned rooms or open your windows every few hours during the heating period.
Drink at least 1 liters of water, juice, or tea each day.
Let Sebamed help your skin!
All Sebamed products are clinically tested on sensitive and problematic skin.
Traditional soap may help clean you, but it may not always agree with you. It has a pH of between 9 to 11, which is too alkaline for sensitive skin. Healthy skin has an acidic hydrolipid barrier that has an average pH value of 5.5. Sebamed products are formulated to that same pH balance for optimal support of skin's barrier functions.
