Skin-Hydrating Skin Care
Immerse skin in refreshing hydration with water-rich formulations.
The Science of Skin
What Is Healthy Hydrated Skin?
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 skin care comes in. Look for formulations featuring water-boosting natural skin care ingredients.
Understanding Your Skin
Dry Skin vs. Dehydrated Skin
Dehydrated skin is thirsty skin. It lacks water, not oil, leading to tightness, redness, and dullness. Common culprits? Long hot showers and harsh weather. The fix is simple: Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! Use products that boost water content to rejuvenate your skin.
Dry skin, on the other hand, lacks oil and is a permanent skin type characterised by flakiness and a tight feeling. It might be genetic, but there's hope! Nourishing skincare products can keep it moisturised and healthy.
Remember: ‘Hydrating’ for dehydrated skin with products like serums and creams rich in hyaluronic acid. ‘Moisturising’ for dry skin with items that lock in moisture, featuring ingredients like ceramides and essential fatty acids.
The Science of Humectants
Plant Hyaluronic Acid
We utilise innovative new technology to produce high-quality hyaluronic acid that is plant-based and cruelty-free, using a common bacterium found in vegetables. The bacteria is collected and fed a sugar solution in the lab, which triggers fermentation. This fermenting process rapidly produces the hyaluronic acid we use in our hydrating skin care.
Manuka Honey
Nature’s sweetest superfood, manuka honey contains a host of skin-enhancing properties, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antibacterial benefits. The key benefit for our hydrating skin care? Manuka honey is a humectant, drawing moisture into the skin.
Harakeke Flax
Harakeke flax produces a cool, clear gel that is rich in omegas and natural plant sugars called polysaccharides, which help to enhance hydration and promote softer, fresher skin.
