The Benefits of Multi-Functional Skincare Products with La Fervance
Multi-functional and versatile skincare products are increasingly gaining popularity, and for good reasons.
Hydrate and support healthy skin barrier function
Finding the best skincare products for dry skin can feel like an enduring and never-ending task. But we are here to tell you that comfortable and radiant skin IS in reach for all skin types, including those of us with flaky, dry skin. Dry skin produces less oil, so keeping the skin barrier well moisturised along with prepping the skin with the right cleanser and pre-treatment serum will support healthy skin barrier function and ease the burden of dry skin.
Natural skin care products are multitasking, offering the skin both replenishing ceramides, protective antioxidants, and nurturing vitamins. Botanical butters such as Shea butter and cocoa butter provide occlusive protection, keeping essential moisture in, while their antioxidant rich vitamin profiles work to protect against harmful free radical and UV damage. Botanical oils offer dry skin transforming benefits including the anti-ageing upside of Phyto-botanical Vitamin A, one that dry skin typically should avoid in its synthetic state.
Nature has certainly provided well when it comes to ingredients that nurture and support dry skin types. Like all skincare routines, starting the day and ending the day right is key to healthy skin function. Your dry skin care routine should support your dry skin with good quality natural skin care products. Be consistent and please don’t skip your morning cleanse!
It is a skin myth to avoid cleansing twice a day if you have dry skin. Your morning cleanse serves a purpose – freeing the skin of shedding cells formed during the long night. If your skin feels tight and taught after cleansing, it’s the wrong cleanser for you. Avoid synthetic sulfates that are usually present in foaming cleansers, they stripe the skin and are too harsh for most skin types. Make the switch to a nourishing cleansing balm or cream. A natural cleanser will work to support better skin function and help to calm and soothe tight dry skin.
Your morning cleanse prepares the skin for the day ahead. Nourishing balm cleaners gently buff the dead skin cells away without disrupting the balance of the skin and provide an extra layer of support. At night remove your makeup with a botanical natural cleansing oil, followed by a cream or balm cleanser to remove the any residue left from your first cleanse. If you have particularly dry skin, you can still do a double oil cleanse, one to remove the “day” and then repeat to finish.
AMLY Deep Reveal Cleansing Balm and Mask offers Oleic acid (aka omega 9), a naturally occurring fatty acid found in the skin’s tissue and sebum. It is particularly effective for dry and mature skin as this acid is rich and thick in consistency, sinking deeply into the epidermis to provide intense hydration.
The AMALA Silkening Creamy Moisture Cleanse is specially formulated and clinically proven to maintain the skins’ moisture levels for both dry and sensitive skin. The creamy balm offers a gentle deep cleanse while hydrating and protecting. AMALA use a unique bio-active complex of anti-inflammatory rose gold and antioxidant spirulina. These actives compliment the pre and probiotic infusion of cocoa bean probiotics and vegan prebiotics, to balance and minimise inflammation. With the added benefit of lactic acid this daily cleanser helps to promote cell turnover for clear looking skin and anti-ageing benefits, perfect for a skin care routine for dry skin.
TNC Tip: Limit your exposure to hot showers and baths; they can disrupt and strip the natural oils from the skin.

When it comes to exfoliating dry skin types, less is definitely more. Don’t over-exfoliate and don’t force it. Flaky skin needs moisture not aggressive peeling or harsh exfoliation. Once a week exfoliation in a skin care routine for dry skin provides a deep clean, removing dead skin cells for clear pores, and is vital for cell renewal and collagen synthesis in an anti-ageing routine. The right natural exfoliator will benefit your dry skin and help your treatment products to work at their very best. These are our top all natural exfoliators for a weekly exfoliating ritual as part of the best skin care routine for dry skin.
A chemical exfoliant like the VENN Collagen Intensive Phyto-Retinol Resurfacing Mask is perfect for fragile dry skin. It is so gentle on the skin, and we love the injection of Bakuchiol, an all natural botanical alternative to Retinol. This exfoliator and mask in one works on minimising the appearance of fine lines and addressing dullness. Dead skin cells are gently dissolved thanks fruit enzymes and amino acids that buff without irritating or causing inflammation. Aloe Vera and Centella asiatica leaf extract promotes hydration and relives redness. Used once a week this dual exfoliator and mask is clinically proven to improve the overall condition appearance of the skin.
After exfoliating treat your dry skin to layer of nurturing natural face oil. The Luxe Botanics Marula Hydrating Serum is a valuable addition to your dry skin care routine and completes your masking ritual. Linoleic acid (aka Omega 6), is an essential fatty acid that is not naturally produced in the body. It is amazing for the skin barrier, helping to control inflammation while producing skin-similar lipids that increases the skins’ moisture and elasticity. Transformative Marula oil is one of the richest sources of linoleic acid found in nature. It can also be mixed with your daily or nightly moisturiser for a hydrating skincare boost.

Another dual performing formulation, Namari Kokon is possibly one of the most unique all-natural skincare products in the market. The texture and the scent make the sensorial experience addictive. The lush cream emulsifies in water turning to a milk. Used as your second cleanse to remove excess oil and residue it leaves the skin purified and petal soft. Follow with a thick layer to face and neck, creating a beauty face mask with Argan and Hazelnut oil to nurture and replenish the complexion. The addition of Peru Balsam and Frankincense are ideal for regenerating skin cells and nourishing dry skin.
Being timely with your skincare application after cleansing can help the skin retain vital moisture. After cleansing, whether you tone or serum, apply your moisturiser in rather quick succession. This helps to lock in vital water, mitigating trans epidermal water loss. Looking for the The Best Moisturiser for Dry Skin? Read more in our Journal.
