Dry skin often feels dry and tight and needs extra hydration than other skin types. Pores are small and bareley visible and the skin is smooth and 'transparent'. If you sue water to cleans your skin it may feel tight within moments of drying it. Dry skin type ages faster than other skins so it is very important to choose the right products to nourish and hydrate your skin from as early on in life as possible.
