What Causes Dry Skin and How to Properly Hydrate it?

Dry skin can feel tight, itchy, dull, flaky, or irritated — and for many people, it seems like no moisturizer ever works long-term. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Dry skin is one of the most common concerns we treat at our Skincare Clinic in Pacific Beach, and with the right care, it’s absolutely fixable.

To understand how to treat it, you first need to understand what actually causes it.

Why Does Dry Skin Happen?

Dry skin can be triggered by multiple factors, including:

  • Weather changes (cold, dry air)

  • Hot showers

  • Using the wrong skincare products

  • Harsh exfoliation

  • Not enough hydration

  • Dehydration inside the body

  • Sun exposure

  • Age-related moisture loss

  • Medications or skin conditions

  • A compromised skin barrier

When your barrier becomes weak, your skin can’t hold onto moisture — leading to tightness, dullness, and irritation.

That’s why the most effective solution isn’t just lotion… it’s a hydrating facial San Diego that restores the barrier and infuses the skin with deep moisture.

How Kiwi Spa Helps Rehydrate & Strengthen Dry Skin

When you visit Kiwi Spa, your appointment begins with a detailed consultation so we can understand the root cause of your dryness — whether it’s environmental, hormonal, sensitivity-based, or barrier-related.

From there, we create a custom facial tailored specifically to your skin needs. Many of our dry-skin clients also struggle with congestion or sensitivity, so we choose ingredients and technologies that hydrate without irritation.

This is where our DMK Jet Luxe Facial becomes the perfect match.

DMK Jet Luxe Facial — The Ultimate Hydrating Facial San Diego

This luxurious, 75-minute treatment combines THREE advanced modalities to restore moisture, stimulate circulation, and help your skin absorb active ingredients deeply and efficiently.

It’s one of the most transformative hydrating facials in San Diego — designed to bring your skin back to life.

1. Double Steam, Double Cleanse, & Ultrasonic Exfoliation

We begin by removing buildup, softening the skin, and gently clearing pores so hydration can penetrate.

2. Dermaplaning for Maximum Absorption

We remove dead skin and vellus hair, allowing serums to absorb at a much deeper level.

3. Jet Peel Infusion (Needle-Free Injections of Beauty)

Using pure oxygen and potent serums, we infuse deep hydration into the dermal layer — instantly plumping and smoothing your skin.

4. DMK Enzyme Mask

This powerful mask oxygenates the skin, boosts circulation, strengthens the barrier, and pushes active ingredients deeper for long-lasting results.

This is the first time in Kiwi Spa history that these three technologies have been combined. The result? A deeply hydrating, glow-boosting, rejuvenating experience that transforms dry skin from the inside out.

Why Dry Skin Clients Love This Facial

  • Intensely hydrates

  • Strengthens the skin barrier

  • Reduces flakiness and irritation

  • Smooths fine lines caused by dehydration

  • Leaves skin soft, plump, and radiant

  • Safe for sensitive or acne-prone skin

  • Provides long-lasting results

It’s also available for back and booty areas for full-body rejuvenation.

Pairing Hydrating Facials With Acne Care

Dry skin and acne often appear together — especially when clients over-exfoliate or use harsh acne products.
During your consultation, we evaluate whether you need a hydrating facial, an acne facial, or a customized combination of both.

This balanced approach is one of the reasons Kiwi Spa is known for offering the best facial in San Diego for both dry skin and acne-prone skin types.

Ready to Restore Moisture & Bring Back Your Glow?

Dry skin is not something you’re stuck with — it simply needs deeper nourishment and a personalized, professional approach. With the right hydrating facial San Diego and expert guidance, your skin can become soft, smooth, and radiant again.
