DRYNESS & DEHYDRATION
Can natural skincare help dehydrated skin?
Dehydrated skin needs more than a quick splash of moisture. Antipodes combines moisture-attracting humectants, nourishing New Zealand botanicals and high-tech bioactives to infuse thirsty skin with hydration and help it hold onto moisture for longer, leaving skin feeling fresh, soft and plump.
How does it work?
Healthy, hydrated skin relies on two things: replenishing moisture and helping skin retain it.
At the heart of our Hydration range is plant hyaluronic acid, a natural-origin humectant created through the fermentation of baby beets. Hyaluronic acid attracts and holds onto water, helping to replenish thirsty skin and give it a fresh, plump appearance.
Why does skin become dehydrated?
Dehydration means skin is lacking water, and it can affect any skin type at any age. Skin may feel tight or thirsty, look flat or less plump, and become less comfortable.
That’s why our approach isn’t simply about rich creams. Lightweight, water-boosting formulas can deliver intensive hydration without feeling heavy, making the range easy to layer and suitable for many different skin needs.
Helping skin hold onto moisture
Bringing water to the skin is only part of the story. The next step is helping to keep it there.
New Zealand mānuka honey acts as a natural humectant to attract and retain moisture, while harakeke flax helps soothe and hydrate.
Ceramide Soufflé Fresh Hydration Cream takes a barrier-focused approach, using next-generation ceramides to help support the skin barrier, an important defence against moisture loss.
Maya Hyaluronic 72-Hour Hydration Serum combines plant hyaluronic acid with marine botanicals for enduring hydration, while bamboo ferment helps protect the skin.
Replenish. Retain. Protect.
Together, humectants, botanicals, ceramides and high-tech bioactives help replenish moisture, support its retention and leave thirsty skin feeling fresh, soft and comfortably hydrated.

Our plant hyaluronic acid is a natural-origin humectant created through the fermentation of baby beets. It can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water, helping to draw moisture to the skin and retain it for a fresh, plump and deeply hydrated appearance.
