Your Personalized Overview

Your skin profile is a combination of dryness and sensitivity. Below are some of the keys to your skin:

Dehydrated Dark Skin - Generally, darker skin usually produces a healthy level of oil, so if your skin is dry it may be a sign of dehydration. Getting adequate moisture is key, with lightweight moisturizers and gentle cleansers.

Possible Hormonal Influences - given your skin type, it may be possible that hormonal fluctuations can be causing your dry skin. As women age, your estrogen level naturally goes down, which causes skin to gradually lose the ability to retain moisture.

Hydration, Internal & External - your skin is your largest organ, and any internal balances will show. Try to get at least 8 to 9 cups of water a day, and also be mindful of sodium intake in your diet.

Simplistic Routine - the less products you use, the better. Your skin is sensitive, and you should avoid foaming and soap based cleansers that strip the skin of natural oils.

Things That May Affect Your Skin

Genetics

80% of your skin is typically inherited. If people in your family generally have dryer skin, then chances are your natural levels of skin hydration is inherited. Although there's nothing you can do about genetics, keeping consistently hydrated with a lightweight moisturizer can prevent most dry skin problems.

Environment

Your environment may be a cause of your dry skin. Pollutants and dry air can suck the moisture out of your skin, which is why it's important to replenish lost moisture using a lightweight moisturizer, while also getting enough water intake everyday. A travel-sized moisturizer can be very handy and worth looking into if you tend to be in environments with dry air.
