Do you have DRY SKIN?

[ Edited ]

I recently purchased a few products from Lumene, a Finnish cosmetic/skincare company.  I am not associated with this co.  However, when I was reading about their products, some claim to replenish the driest of skins.  When you think about where Finland is located, I guess they would be highly concerned with dry skin.  Make your own decisions but you may want to read about their products.  Luckily, my skin is normal but the products I purchased thus far are very nice.

The average relative humidity in Finland is about 80%. Compare that with some states like Nevada and Arizona where their's is on average less than 35%. Colorado, where I live, is not far behind, with averages in the 40s.  We have many days that can go below 10%. I would have to say that Finland is humid in comparison.

Interesting stats. I live in western PA and we are on par with Finland with humidity. Actually we look at the dew point more than actual humidity. Anything above 60 is pretty oppressive. Today our dewpoint is 70. Ok enough with the weather since this is a beauty site. Lol!

Fortunately I have never had dry skin or any skin problems.

I live in Colorado and have dry skin.  Who doesn't that lives here.  More often than not our humidity is under 15%.  Since we started using First Aid Beauty skin cream, no more dry, cracked skin.  Lumene is a nice product.
