Introduction

If your skin feels tight throughout the day, flakes after makeup application, or experiences increased redness and sensitivity in cold weather, you most likely have dry skin. Dry skin is not just a "feeling" — it means that the skin's natural moisture barrier (lipid layer) is weakened, and its protection against external factors is reduced.

In this article, we share a skincare routine that truly nourishes dry skin, providing lasting rather than temporary results, and the products that will work for you at each step of this routine.

What Causes Dry Skin?

Dry skin can be caused by many factors such as genetics, weather conditions, harsh cleansers, washing with hot water, prolonged exposure to air-conditioned environments, and insufficient moisturizing. When the skin is not sufficiently moisturized, it cannot perform its protective barrier function against external factors — this triggers dryness, sensitivity, and signs of premature aging.

The solution is not a single product, but a routine applied in the correct order, complementing each other.

Step 1: Cleanse with Milk, Not Soap

For dry skin, traditional soaps and foaming cleansers further strip the skin of its already limited oil. Instead, using a cleansing milk that cleanses while moisturizing the skin is the most critical first step of the routine.

LR ALOE VIA Cleansing Milk gently removes makeup and dirt while preserving the skin's natural moisture balance — it is specially designed for sensitive and dry skin.

Step 2: Intense Moisturizing — Day and Night Should Be Separate

For dry skin, a single cream is not enough. Your day cream should be light while protecting the skin against external factors, and your night cream should be intensely nourishing during the hours when the skin repairs itself.

For day: LR ALOE VIA Day Cream — provides moisturized, vibrant, and protected skin throughout the day.

For night: LR ALOE VIA Night Cream — renews the skin overnight, leaving a plumper and more rested appearance in the morning.

Those who use these two products together often notice a reduction in skin tightness within 2 weeks.

Step 3: Weekly Intensive Treatment — Night Mask

For dry skin, an intensely moisturizing mask applied 2-3 times a week elevates your routine to the next level. The skin absorbs the mask's ingredients more deeply while sleeping.

LR ZEITGARD Night Mask — intensely moisturizes the skin overnight, leaving a plumper and renewed appearance in the morning.

Step 4: Barrier Support with Natural Oils

If the skin barrier is severely weakened (constant tightness, flaking, sensitivity), adding a natural facial oil over creams helps repair the barrier.

LR ZEITGARD Beauty Diamonds Radiant Youth Oil nourishes the skin, adds radiance, and supports barrier repair.

Common Mistakes

Washing face with hot water — further strips the skin's oil layer; prefer lukewarm water
Skipping toner — an alcohol-free, moisturizing toner supports moisture balance
Applying insufficient amount of moisturizer — for dry skin, "sufficient amount, correct frequency" is more effective than "less product, frequent use"

Conclusion

Dry skin is not a permanent condition, but a skin type that can be managed with the right routine. In summary, the steps you need are:

1. Moisturizing cleansing milk
2. Separate, intensely moisturizing creams for day and night
3. Weekly night mask support
4. Barrier repair with natural oil if necessary
