Dry Skin: Complete Guide to Care & Best BIOCULE Products
Dry skin means the skin fails to hold onto its moisture balance leading to rough texture, tightness and dullness. The best treatment for dry skin involves moisturising cleansers, soothing toners, hydrating serums and replenishing oils all of which can bring back the natural glow of dry skin.
Step-by-Step Dry Skin Care Routine

Cleansing is the first step in any skincare routine. The right kind of cleanser should remove dirt and impurities while maintaining hydration.
