When skin starts to appear dull, rough and worn out it can often have a matte appearance which is no longer supple.  This is referred to as lipid-dry skin.  Small, white fatty deposits may also be seen around the eye area.

Lipid-Dry Skin can be a sign of:

• Essential Fatty Acid Deficiency (EFAD)
• Menopause
• Abusive skin treatments (over-cleansing, over-exfoliating)
• Inappropriate ingredients in skin care products (emulsifiers, preservatives, fragrances,
mineral oils, etc.)
• Self-induced through diet (caffeine, alcohol, junk food), medications, or lack of water intake
• Environmental conditions (indoor heating, air-conditioning, climate)
• Medical conditions (eczema, psoriasis, etc.)

How does one counter these effects?

• Restore the bi-layers (preventing evaporation).
• Restore sebum production.
• Replace natural moisturizers in the skin instead of washing them out.
• Avoid emulsifiers, preservatives, etc.
