The outer layer, called the epidermis, is as thin as a pencil line. It consists of a protective layer of skin cells that continually sheds and gives way to new cells. Below the epidermis are the dermis and hypodermis, two layers that produce the oil, collagen, and elastin that give your skin support, elasticity, and shine.There are 4 basic skin types: oily, dry, combination and normal. The type of products you use will depend on your skin type.Be aware that your skin type will change from time to time and you will have different needs depending on the time of year, if you are under stress, or as you age. DRY SKIN Skin is tight, drawn, flaky with a dull complexion. Dry skin can lack elasticity and be extremely sensitive to the sun, wind, and cold temperatures. Dry skin occurs when the dermis does not secrete enough oil, or sebum. Often people with dry skin change frequently from normal to dry then back again.   Causes of dry skin The skin has become dehydrated because oil glands are not supplying enough lubrication to the skin. Skin has been exposed to the elements, particularly in winter. A genetic condition. Nutritional deficiencies, lack of vitamin A and the B vitamins, can contribute.
