Hydration and exfoliation – a dual skin support
HyPearls® combine functionalities
Hydration is a key part of skincare because it maintains smoothness, elasticity, and overall health. Moreover, it helps the skin keep its natural balance, which supports a radiant and youthful look. Common ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, glycerin, and botanical extracts appear in moisturizers, serums, and creams. These elements lock in moisture and prevent dehydration. In addition, proper hydration strengthens the skin’s barrier. As a result, the skin becomes more resilient against pollution, harsh weather, and other environmental stressors.
Risk Points of Insufficient Skin Hydration:
- Dryness and Flakiness: Lack of hydration can cause the skin to become rough, scaly, and prone to peeling.
- Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Dehydrated skin can develop premature signs of aging, including fine lines and deeper wrinkles.
- Loss of Elasticity: Insufficient hydration weakens skin’s elasticity, leading to sagging and a dull appearance.
- Increased Sensitivity: Dry skin is more susceptible to irritation, redness, and sensitivity to external factors.
- Dull and Uneven Skin Tone: Dehydration causes the skin to lose its natural glow, resulting in a lackluster complexion.
- Breakouts and Clogged Pores: When skin is dehydrated, it may overproduce oil to compensate, leading to clogged pores and acne.
- Weakened Skin Barrier: Lack of hydration can compromise the skin’s protective barrier, making it more vulnerable to damage from pollutants and UV rays.
- Smooth Texture: Helps to smooth and soften the skin.
- Collagen Boost: Stimulates collagen production, aiding in skin renewal.
- Dermal Fillers: Used in injectable fillers for facial contouring and volume restoration.
Hydration effects of hyaluronic acid
Hyaluronic acid is a powerful hydration agent because it attracts and retains water. Its polymeric structure binds up to 1,000 times its weight in moisture. Therefore, it is highly effective in keeping skin hydrated throughout the day. When used in cosmetic products, hyaluronic acid penetrates the skin’s surface and replenishes moisture. As a result, it improves overall skin texture. This hydration also plumps the skin and reduces the look of fine lines and wrinkles. In addition, it helps maintain elasticity. Its lightweight and non-greasy nature suits all skin types. Finally, it delivers lasting moisture without clogging pores.
Implementing exfoliation functionalities
Exfoliation involves removing dead skin cells from the skin’s surface, revealing smoother, brighter skin underneath. It enhances cell turnover, improves texture, and allows better absorption of skincare products.
Advantageously, an exfoliation step prepares the skin, while a subsequent hydration step moistures the epidermis.
HyPearls® combine exfoliation and hydration in one product. Hyaluronic acid is processed into microparticular structures, ranging in sizes between 90 µm and 400 µm. The structures’ surface properties are balanced for scrubing efficiency even for sensitive skin. Upon dissolution of the microparticular structures, hyaluronic acid is released and hydrates the skin with immediate effect.
