When it comes to talking about skin problems, “dry skin” and “dehydrated skin” are often used interchangeably. However, they have different meanings. While dryness refers to a skin type, dehydration is a condition that someone with any skin type can have.
People with dry skin are born with it – just how people with normal, oily, or combination skin types are. If your skin is dehydrated, it means that it’s not getting enough water. Dehydrated skin may also lead to your body producing more oil to compensate, resulting in acne breakouts.
Here are a few ways you can differentiate between dry skin & dehydrated skin:
| Dry Skin | Dehydrated Skin |
| Lacks lipids | Lacks water |
| It is genetic | Anyone can experience it |
| Feels dry all over your body | Can feel oily and/or dry |
| It’s constant, more prominent in winter | It may come and go |
| Appears flaky, rough, and red | Feels tight, looks dull, more exaggerated wrinkles |
