Hydrated glowing skin with water droplets

Why Does Skin Feel Dry and Puffy at the Same Time?

Your skin can feel dry, tight, and still look slightly puffy. That’s because hydration and water retention are not the same thing.

What Hydration Actually Is

Hydration is how well your skin holds and uses water.

It affects:

• smoothness
• glow
• elasticity

What Water Retention Is

Water retention is fluid buildup that causes:

• puffiness
• swelling
• lack of definition

• drink water
• use hydrating products

And still look:

• dull
• puffy
• uneven

• hydration support
• barrier repair
• inflammation control
