Egg white tightens the pores, dries the skin, so to speak, even tightens it a little, making it more elastic. White color is more suitable for oily skin types, and yellow for dry skin.
Instead of egg masks, I really like masks made of egg yolk, olive oil and lemon juice.

Many women face the problem of dry skin on their face, which is usually accompanied by tension, irritation, and peeling. Wrinkles appear more often on such a face, because the skin is more prone to loss of elasticity. What can you do to give your skin the hydration it needs and get rid of unwanted signs of dryness?
There are many cosmetics and treatments for this skin type, some even use hemorrhoid creams for this, but it is always possible to make an anti-wrinkle mask for a face with dry skin from natural products at home.
Causes of dryness
What causes fluid loss? The skin consists of several layers:
- dermis
- epidermis
- outer stratum corneum
Epidermis and stratum corneum cells protect the dermis from environmental influences. That is, the dermis contains 80% fluid, which provides elasticity. If the protective layer is thin, it is difficult to maintain fluid in the dermis. Without the necessary help, the skin quickly loses moisture. And this happens more intensely under the influence of external irritating factors: heat, frost, wind.
It is important to know that there are two types of dry skin:
- This type is given to humans naturally. The skin is smooth, does not cause problems at a young age, without oily shine and acne, but over time it is prone to the initial appearance of wrinkles and peeling.
- The skin is like this because of dehydration. This can happen to any skin type as a result of insufficient hydration or excessive drying with special products.
If you have doubts about determining your skin type, you can do a simple test:
- Wash thoroughly
- Wipe your face
- Do not apply any cream or cosmetics on your face
- After a few hours, apply a paper towel to your face.
If no wet marks appear on the napkin, then the skin is dry. When spots appear on the nose, forehead, and chin, we can confidently say that the skin is oily.
The main reasons why the skin becomes dry:
- Disorders in the function of the sebaceous glands
- Dry air
- Frequent exposure to sun and frost
- Stay in the water for a long time
- Wash with hot water
- Low quality cosmetics, excessive use of cosmetics
- Using Soap
- Frequent peeling
- Not enough vitamins
- Various skin diseases
- Stomach and intestinal diseases, thyroid gland, nervous system
- Side effects of some medications
- Bad nutrition, diet
- Smoking
- Lack of proper facial care
- Hormonal changes/pregnancy, menopause, hormone therapy
- Age-related changes
Dry air, especially during winter, is one of the most common causes of skin dehydration; it makes the skin dull and lifeless. Frost, strong wind, high temperature, low humidity are dangerous for all skin types, especially if it is naturally dry and thin. The same effect occurs with frequent visits to the solarium.
The same negative effect is produced by hot water, and also by the use of soap. In this case, the natural fat layer is washed away, while the skin becomes dry and tense.
But the body must receive a sufficient amount of fluid. Violation of the water balance, as a result of an incorrect diet or a specific diet, will first be reflected on the face.
Diseases such as diabetes, dysbacteriosis, eczema also affect dry skin. Dysfunction of the thyroid gland reduces the production of fat, as a result of which the skin loses its elasticity and becomes dry. Some medications (antibiotics, diuretics) can have side effects that prevent the skin from getting enough moisture.
Dry skin types are the most sensitive to hormonal changes. The main factor that affects the formation of dry dermis is damage to the sebaceous glands. But this can be affected by weather conditions and incorrectly chosen cosmetics, as well as bad ecology, bad habits, and even active facial expressions and the amount of time spent in front of a computer monitor.
How to use an anti-wrinkle mask on dry skin
Before you start health procedures, you need to know what causes dry skin and eliminate the cause. Otherwise, no product applied to the surface will overcome the problem.
There are myths about proper care for this type of skin:
- Sometimes you can hear the misconception that dry skin care is practically unnecessary. This decision was formed among the young representatives of the fair half. But after crossing the threshold of thirty years, the natural aging process begins in the body. And it is dry skin that suffers the most from the lack of mandatory care. Therefore, the early appearance of facial wrinkles is observed.
- Someone claims that after turning 30, no matter what you do, wrinkles will still appear on dry skin. The body really ages, and this cannot be prevented, but there is always an opportunity to slow down this process. Well-maintained skin ages more slowly and definitely looks better. Correct actions allow you to keep your skin young, and even at a more mature age, wrinkles will be almost invisible.
You can achieve the best positive results, both for prevention and to get rid of wrinkles on the face with dry skin, by using homemade cosmetic masks. After all, they are filled with beneficial natural ingredients. When preparing it yourself, there is no need to doubt whether chemicals have been added to the composition.
When choosing a mask recipe, it is better to focus on options that produce a nourishing and moisturizing effect.
This mask aims to achieve the following effects:
- Restores water balance
- Rejuvenation
- Smoothes wrinkles
- Maximum moisture retention
Many people note that after regular use of homemade masks, the skin looks smooth, healthy, and matte.
You need to use homemade care products 2-3 times a week before going to bed for 15-20 minutes. After rinsing, apply a proven moisturizing night cream. It is better to replace the mask.

If capillary mesh appears on the skin of the face, then it is necessary to avoid putting honey into the mask, because it has a vasodilating effect.
