It's logic. As the hydro-lipid film is altered (naturally dry or desiccated skin), it protects the epidermis less well, which loses a lot of water and marks more.
Some anti-ageing textures are not moisturizing enough, so the skin still feels tight despite applying the cream morning and evening.
Good news, the star active ingredient in anti-aging care, hyaluronic acid, is also moisturizing and repairing. And since it is naturally present in the epidermis, it is generally very well tolerated. We opt without hesitation for a treatment that contains it. Also good are formulas rich in lipids, which rebuild the skin's barrier.
We avoid soap products and favor surgras cleansing gels, which cleanse without removing the hydro-lipid film, or special micellar waters for dry skin. You can use a serum + an eye contour (the area is very sensitive) + a mask, when the skin feels tight. And don't forget the lip balm.
