Dealing with Dry Skin? Let’s Rebuild Your Moisture Barrier

Dry skin can stem from a combination of internal and external factors:

Cold weather or low humidity
Harsh cleansers or over-exfoliation
Genetics and aging
Dehydration or poor skin barrier function
Medications or certain skin conditions (eczema, etc.)

Dry skin isn’t just about lack of water—it’s also about a compromised barrier. When your skin can’t hold onto moisture, everything from sensitivity to fine lines can show up more easily.

Why I Recommend Hydrinity Renewing HA Serum for Dry Skin

At my NYC clinic, I see the impact of barrier damage on a daily basis. Clients often think they have sensitive skin, when in fact, their skin is just chronically dry and inflamed. This serum helps rebuild that foundation so everything else—whether it’s active serums or treatments—can work more effectively.

Who It’s For:

Skin that feels tight, flaky, or irritated
Compromised or post-procedure skin
Clients looking to support aging skin or enhance plumpness

When I Use It in the Clinic:

After exfoliation to replenish hydration
On compromised skin that needs rebuilding
For everyday home use in any hydration-focused routine

Ingredients That Hydrate, Soothe, and Strengthen

1. Hydrators (Hyaluronic Acid, Glycerin, Butylene Glycol)

These ingredients bind water to the skin and improve hydration from the outside in. They plump dry, rough areas and help improve skin smoothness immediately.

2. Barrier-Supportive Oils + Softeners (Squalane, Dimethicone)

These lipids mimic the skin’s natural oils, creating a soft, breathable seal that prevents moisture loss. This is key for skin that’s prone to flaking or feeling raw.

3. Soothing Botanicals + Antioxidants (Bisabolol, Ginger, Kakadu Plum)

Soothing agents help reduce discomfort and redness often associated with dryness. The antioxidants also help protect dry skin from environmental damage that makes it worse.

4. Firming Peptides (Trifluoroacetyl Tripeptide-2, Polypeptides)

While this serum’s main goal is hydration, the inclusion of peptides offers long-term benefits like improved firmness and elasticity—making it perfect for mature or dry-aging skin.

How to Use It to Rehydrate Dry Skin

Apply 1–2 pumps to clean, slightly damp skin before moisturizer.

Pro Tips:

Use morning and night, especially after travel or sun exposure
Pair with a gentle cream-based cleanser
Top with a rich moisturizer to seal everything in

Common Dry Skin Myths

Myth: You just need to drink more water. Truth: Hydration starts inside, but dry skin often needs topical hydration and barrier repair too.

Myth: Oily moisturizers will clog your skin. Truth: Dry skin needs oil and water. Look for products with non-comedogenic lipids like squalane.

Myth: If it stings, it’s working. Truth: Stinging is often a sign of barrier damage. Comfort should always come first when treating dryness.

Laziza’s Clinical Perspective

At my clinic, treating dry skin is often the first step in transforming a client’s whole routine. When your barrier is strong and your skin is hydrated, everything else works better—your makeup goes on smoother, active products penetrate more evenly, and the skin just looks calmer and more radiant.

Hydrinity Renewing HA Serum is a staple I return to again and again for clients struggling with dryness. Whether you’re navigating seasonal skin changes or rebuilding after a treatment, this serum helps restore calm, comfort, and bounce.
