Hydration, Inside & Out

When it's hot, skin dehydrates quickly. Sun, swimming, heat... To keep skin glowing, hydration must be twofold: internally and externally.

OUT: reach for a thirst-quenching treatment

In summer, the skin faces countless stressors: heat, sun, chlorine, salt… As a result, it dehydrates more quickly. Once or twice a week, the Biocellulose Hydration & Radiance Mask, a true thirst-quenching treatment, gradually releases an intensely hydrating serum with edelweiss and seven alpine plants. In 15 minutes, the skin is quenched, fresh and luminous. Every day, a few spritzes of Eau d'Herbes with Lemon Balm & Mint refresh and remineralise the skin, before a light cream and sun protection.

INSIDE: nutrition & hydration, the winning duo

In summer, with heat and perspiration, our body quickly loses water, but also electrolytes: those essential minerals (sodium, potassium, magnesium) that maintain good cellular hydration. Skin that is well hydrated from within depends as much on how much water you drink as on the balance of these electrolytes. Drinking enough, at least 2 litres a day, is essential, but it is just as important to replenish these losses with a diet rich in fruit and vegetables full of water, vitamins, antioxidants and minerals. Watermelon, cucumber, citrus fruits and red berries are perfect for supporting skin hydration while strengthening the skin's natural defences.

Water-rich fruit and vegetables to hydrate the skin from within

The recipe: iced Pure Beauty organic infusion

For 1 litre of infusion:

  • 1 heaped tablespoon of Pure Beauty Organic Infusion (an organic blend of rosemary, rose, rooibos, ginger, maté and fennel)
  • 1 litre of hot water at 80°C
  • 1 organic lemon
  • 1 handful of blueberries
  • Ice cubes

Pour 1 litre of hot water at 80°C into a teapot. Place 1 heaped tablespoon of Pure Beauty Organic Infusion in the infuser and leave to steep for 10 minutes. Remove the infuser and leave to cool. Slice the lemon. Place ice cubes in the glasses, then add the lemon slices and a few blueberries.

How can you keep your skin well hydrated in summer?

+
In summer, hydration works on two fronts: on the outside, with a thirst-quenching treatment such as the Biocellulose Hydration & Radiance Mask once or twice a week and a refreshing mist such as the Eau d'Herbes every day; on the inside, by drinking at least 2 litres of water a day and favouring water-rich fruit and vegetables.

What is the difference between dehydrated skin and dry skin?

+
Dry skin lacks lipids (oils): it is a skin type. Dehydrated skin lacks water: it is a temporary condition that can affect every skin type, including oily skin. In summer, dehydration is heightened by heat and sun.

Which foods help hydrate the skin from within?

+
Fruit and vegetables rich in water and minerals are your best allies: watermelon, cucumber, citrus fruits, red berries. A chilled infusion, such as the Pure Beauty Organic Infusion, is the ideal complement.

Does a hydrating serum replace a cream?

+
A serum does not replace your cream, it complements it. Lighter and more concentrated, it penetrates deeply, while your cream or sun protection then seals in the actives and protects the skin's surface.
