THE SCIENCE OF SKIN
What is healthy hydrated skin?
Plumped, fresh, and bouncy: that’s hydrated skin. Our skin contains a ready-made barrier, made up of dead skin cells (corneocytes) and fats (lipids), which form a seal to defend against pollutants and keep moisture levels intact. When this barrier dries out, the cells underneath can lose water and gradually shrivel, raisin-like, resulting in the appearance of fine lines and parched skin.
Hydration is essential for the health of every skin type – even oily. If your skin feels itchy, tight, has a dull appearance, and tends to wrinkle when you pinch it, there’s a high chance it’s dehydrated. Contrary to popular opinion, there is little evidence that drinking water can directly hydrate the skin, as the act of drinking water can’t penetrate the skin’s top layer (epidermis).
That’s where hydrating skincare, such as serums and moisturisers, play an important role in your regime. Look for formulations featuring a plethora of water-boosting natural skincare ingredients, such as the all-important humectant.

Contrary to popular opinion, there is little evidence that drinking water can help with hydrating the skin, as it can’t penetrate the skin’s top layer (epidermis). That’s where topical skincare products, such as serums and moisturisers, can play an essential role in your regime.

WITH PLANT HYALURONIC
Hyaluronic acid is found naturally in the human body, especially in the eyes, skin, and joints. It has powerful moisture-retaining properties – it can hold up to 1000 times its weight in water. It is also viscoelastic, a unique consistency that both flows and stretches.

The science of humenctants
Want to quench thirsty skin? Look to Nature’s humectants. These skin-plumping ingredients are used in hydrating skincare because they love water, drawing moisture to the top layer of skin (the stratum corneum) to keep it moisturised. In skincare, they work best alongside other hydration-enhancing ingredients to maximise their potential.
