Dehydration
To combat dehydrated skin, it requires products that are going to draw water into the skin with their water binding properties.
While dry skin is caused by lack of lipids allowing the skin to lose moisture, dehydrated skin is from a lack of water. Any skin type can become dehydrated, even people with extremely oily skin, we often see this in people with T-Zone concerns.
Water deficiency within the skin can be caused by many external factors, including heat and UV damage. Environmental stressors strip the moisture from our skin. People often notice this most in the winter months when humidity lowers and heaters are constantly being used inside which can cause our skin to become dry.
Consuming a lack of water or too much alcohol and caffeine, as a dehydrated body equals dehydrated skin.
Skin can also become more dehydrated as we age due to decreased production of ceramides which help to retain water within the skin. This can also occur with hormonal changes, especially during menopause, as well as genetics factors and skin conditions.
Signs of Dehydration include oily T-one, acne, enlarged pores, fine lines and wrinkles and a dull complexion.
Vitamin B3, B5 & Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Serum
The formulation of our Vitamin B3, B5 & Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Serum is designed to retain moisture within your skin and avoid dehydration.
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a carbohydrate molecule that naturally occurs in our bodies, particularly in our skin, connective tissues, and eyes. It is what we call a humectant which means has the ability attract and retain water like a sponge. It's a key player in maintaining the skin's moisture and overall health. HA is renowned for its exceptional water retention properties, as it can hold up to 1000 times its weight in water, making it a hydration powerhouse.
Our hydrating serum contains three molecular weights of Hyaluronic Acid and Polyglutamic Acid which will visibly plump the skin with both immediate and long-term hydration as the different weights penetrate different layers of the skin. Polyglutamic Acid holds up to 4000x its weight is water and has a higher molecular weight than the hyaluronic acid molecules which means it sits on the surface attracting water for immediately plumper, more hydrated skin.
Along with 1% Panthenol (Vitamin B5) and Glycerine that act as both humectants like HA and emollients to lock in moisture to retain hydration within the skin leaving it soft and supple. Combined with 12% Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) and ceramides which will help to maintain a health skin barrier and reduce the amount of moisture lost within the skin, this serum achieves superior hydration.
