FAQ

Where can I buy Gatineau skincare for dry skin in South Africa?
You can shop the Gatineau Dry Skin collection online at AbsoluteSkin. Browse the available products and check each product page for its benefits, ingredients and application instructions.

What is the difference between dry and dehydrated skin?
Dry skin is a skin type that produces less oil, while dehydrated skin lacks water and can affect any skin type, including oily skin. Skin can be both dry and dehydrated, so a routine may need both hydration and nourishment.

How do I choose a Gatineau moisturiser for dry skin?
Look for a product described as suitable for dry skin, with a nourishing texture that suits your preferences. Consider any other concerns you want to address and read the individual product description rather than choosing by texture alone.

How should I build a skincare routine for dry skin?
Start with a gentle cleanser, followed by a suitable serum and nourishing moisturiser. In the morning, finish with sunscreen. Follow the directions for each Gatineau product and introduce new products gradually.

Do I need a moisturiser if I use a hydrating serum?
A hydrating serum and a moisturiser serve different roles. A serum can add hydration, while a moisturiser helps soften the skin and reduce moisture loss. For dry skin, a suitable serum can be layered underneath a nourishing moisturiser.

Can I exfoliate dry skin?
Yes, if your skin tolerates it, but choose a gentle exfoliant and follow its recommended frequency. Avoid exfoliating skin that feels irritated or sore, and reduce use if dryness or sensitivity increases.

Can I leave a Gatineau face mask on overnight?
Only leave a mask on overnight if that specific product's instructions recommend it. Other masks need to be rinsed or removed after a set time, so always check the directions before use.

Are products for dry skin also suitable for sensitive skin?
Dry skin and sensitive skin are not the same, although they can occur together. Check each product's suitability and ingredients, patch test new products, and stop using a product if it causes irritation.
