Dryness in your ovulatory phase
Dryness is tight, flaky, or rough-feeling skin that drinks up moisture. In your ovulatory phase, estrogen peaks and skin tends to look its best, glowing and even, though oil can creep up.
What to do
Layer a hydrating serum under a richer moisturiser and seal it while skin is damp.
Ingredients that help
