Phototype was classified using the Fitzpatrick Scale; dyspigmentation was rated with a six\u2010grade photographic scale; and dryness was evaluated using both self\u2010reported and expert\u2010administered questionnaires. Statistical analyses examined associations between dyspigmentation and dryness, stratified by locality and season.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Dyspigmentation and skin dryness were significantly more prevalent among rural participants in both March and June. Skin dryness was more marked in winter, suggesting a relatively short\u2010term (from daily to monthly) evolution due to external conditions such as cold weather. On the opposite, dyspigmentation showed little seasonal variation\u2014a pattern more consistent with a dependence on cumulative exposure rather than on short\u2010term seasonal changes. A\u00a0statistically significant correlation was observed between skin dryness and dyspigmentation across localities and seasons.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study identifies a significant correlation between skin dryness and dyspigmentation in Chinese women, consistent across localities and seasons. Both parameters were also influenced by seasonal and lifestyle factors, supporting their potential as morphological markers of the exposome's impact on skin health and ageing in both rural and urban settings. Further research, including in\u00a0vitro models, is needed to elucidate the mechanisms potentially linking skin dryness and dyspigmentation.<\/jats:p>\n
