Academie Skincare Dry Skin Range

Academie Scientifique De Beaute has developed a skincare range for dry skin. Thanks to hypo-allergenic, hydrating and protective activies, it repairs the cutaneous barrier and provides skin with the essential ingredients to restore a beautiful and comfortable skin. Dry skin has no lipids. Its sebaceous glands do not produce enough sebum thus lowering the level of lipids in the hydro-lipidic film. With little or no protection, dry skin presents a fine and rough epidermis which can lead the skin to show dry patches and flakes.
