The Knowledge you need for Skin Hydration

You may have learned that good hydration is the key to beautiful skin, but do you know how to actually determine if your skin is well-hydrated? And how to select the right skin care routine for your skin type?

Every skin specialist will tell you

Beautiful skin is properly hydrated skin

Jose Ginestar, Director of Research at Sisley, simply defines hydration as “the content of water in the skin.” The goal is to help skin maintain this optimal water content with a few essential habits.

Good habits for good skin

Hydrating skin from the inside out is crucial. You should drink at least eight cups of water per day to properly support the skin’s moisture levels.

Avoiding cosmetic products that can have a dehydrating effect on the skin is important, as is protecting your skin from elements such as sun, wind, and cold, that can also have a harsh, drying effect on the complexion. 

Finally, select the right hydrating products and apply them both in the morning and at night for the most effective results. 

For example, in order to combat the effects of dehydration caused by environmental aggressors, Jose Ginestar recommends a skin care product known for “targeting the production of hyaluronic acid and aquaporins (the skin irrigation channels) like Hydra-Global Serum does”. It is essential to hydrate the skin continuously. 

Age and hydration

Age plays a major role in skin hydration. As the years go by, “skin becomes drier, naturally produces less lipids and retains water less efficiently” explains Ginestar. He adds that it therefore becomes necessary “to use products which are at once hydrating, in order to bring skin the water it is lacking, and nourishing, in order to help reconstruct its lipidic barrier.” We tend to forget there is a difference between hydration and nutrition and yet they respond to two very different needs: the first provides hydration, while the second provides lipids, also known as “fats.”

“You should adapt your skin care routine to your skin’s specific needs in winter, by using a hydrating serum, like Hydra-Global Serum, or a nourihing oil like Black Rose Precious Skin Oil , in addition to your usual moisturizing cream. In summer, a lighter product is often more effective. The Hydra-Global Serum will hydrate while providing a lightweight texture, ideal for warmer weather.”
