Hydration in 4 Questions!

Hydration is a crucial step for healthy skin.

On the surface of our skin, there is a film called the hydrolipidic film. This film is created by our body to protect the skin as a natural moisturizer. However, it is quickly damaged by all kinds of external aggressions, which is why it is important to apply a cream every day. The cream provides your skin with missing nutrients, creates a protective barrier against external attacks, and retains water in your skin.

If I drink a lot of water, do I still need to apply a moisturizing cream?

It's true that drinking water will have a major positive impact on the hydration of your skin and body. However, applying a moisturizing cream will maximize this hydration and keep water in the skin throughout the day. Again, it's important to understand that our skin is the organ most exposed to external aggressions, which are sources of dehydration. Sun, wind, pollution, alcohol, and coffee are some of the elements that dehydrate our skin every day.

That's why I answer yes without hesitation to this question!

What are the signs that my skin is dehydrated?

• Visible flaking
• Rough texture
• Fine lines
• Tightness
• Redness
• Dull complexion

How can I maximize my hydration?

• Drink at least 1.5 liters of water per day
• Use a cleanser with a balanced pH to avoid dehydrating your skin.
• Exfoliating is key to better hydration. Free your skin from dead cells for better penetration of moisturizing products.
• Use cellular water mist before applying a cream. Cellular water mist moisturizes the skin, allows for better absorption, and is enriched with hyaluronic acid. A must-have when it comes to hydration.
• Add a hydrating serum to your at-home skincare routine
• Apply a moisturizer morning and evening.
• Boost your hydration with a hydrating mask. Some masks, like the hyaluronic mask, can be kept on the skin all night when the skin needs intensive treatment.
• Avoid sources of dehydration such as UV rays, cold, pollution, stress, tobacco, or cosmetic products unsuitable for your skin type.
• Treat yourself to a hydrating facial. A professional facial provides the skin with increased hydration thanks to exclusive professional products.
