A radiant skin and a flawless complexion

We’ve all heard it before—in the quest for radiant skin and a flawless complexion, facial hydration is key. But why?

Did you know that the body is made up of more than 70% water? This water needs to be replenished because, naturally, the body loses an average of 2.5 liters per day. Hydrating the face allows the skin to regenerate. Proper hydration also helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles by keeping the skin supple and elastic.

Hydration has other benefits too:

It helps combat dull or gray skin. If skin cells lack hydration, they tend to appear pale.

It protects against external factors like cold, heat, or pollution by reinforcing the protective film on the skin’s surface.

It slows down skin aging by allowing the skin to regenerate.

What are the mechanisms of hydration? The skin is covered by a hydrolipidic film that prevents water from evaporating and acts as a barrier against external aggressions. If the skin is not sufficiently hydrated, this film is compromised, leading to discomfort, tightness, or even redness. Therefore, it’s important to apply a day cream daily.

 

At night, the skin particularly needs to regenerate and maintain its hydration. It’s during this resting period that the skin activates its repair and cell renewal mechanisms. Night treatments play a crucial role in your skincare routine.
