Is It Possible To Have Both Dehydrated and Oily Skin? 1 | Página 6

As a busy mom, it can be tough to remember to drink enough water when I’m constantly on the go. I actually
downloaded an app on my phone to send me reminders to hydrate! I love it when I reach my daily goal, and I
definitely notice that when I’m well-hydrated, I feel better, have more energy, and my skin looks more glowy and
youthful!
How do I know if I have dehydrated skin?
It can be tough to tell the difference between dry and dehydrated skin. If your skin is dry year round and never really
oily, you likely have a dry skin type.
When it’s dehydrated, your skin might feel tight, have flaky patches or show fine lines while still feeling greasy or
oily. It can also look more “sunken,” and dark eye circles can be more apparent.
Also, if you notice that your skin suddenly feels or looks drier than normal, it’s a pretty good indication that the cause
could be temporary dehydration.
Another way to identify dehydrated skin is the pinch test or turgor test. Gently pinch the skin on the back of your
hand and see if it bounces back into place. If it forms a little skin hill for a bit, get up and chug some water.
