Skin Conditions

Understanding your skin – and what causes common skin concerns – is an important first step to finding the right solution for your needs. Whether you have rough and bumpy skin, acne, eczema or a combination of other skin indications, learn more about your skin concern, including common symptoms and causes, as well as solutions to help you manage it every day, so your skin feels soft and healthy-looking.

Very Dry Skin

Very dry skin happens when the skin barrier lacks moisture and natural oils, often leading to tight, flaky, and uncomfortable skin that requires intensive hydration.

Calloused Skin

Calloused skin develops when repeated pressure or friction causes the skin to thicken and harden as a natural protective response.

Itchy Skin

Itchy skin causes persistent irritation and the urge to scratch, often linked to dryness, environmental triggers, or underlying skin issues.

Cracked Skin

Cracked skin occurs when extremely dry or damaged skin splits, creating painful fissures that may require targeted skin care.

Chapped Lips

Chapped lips occur when the delicate lip skin becomes dry, flaky, and irritated due to dehydration, weather exposure, or environmental factors.

Eczema & Dermatitis

Eczema and dermatitis are inflammatory skin conditions that cause red, itchy, and irritated skin, often triggered by allergens, irritants, or genetics.

Psoriasis

Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune condition that accelerates skin cell turnover, leading to thick, scaly patches on the skin.

Sensitive Skin

Sensitive skin refers to skin that reacts easily to environmental triggers, skincare products, or temperature changes.

Diabetic Skin

Diabetic skin refers to skin changes associated with diabetes, which can cause dryness, itching, and increased vulnerability to irritation.

Rough and Bumpy Skin

Rough and bumpy skin, often linked to keratosis pilaris, appears as small bumps that make the skin feel uneven or textured.
