Dry skin presents a very favorable ground for the appearance of wrinkles:as it lacks water, fine lines
dehydration appear quickly and expression lines are more marked than on normal skin. The epidermis can be dry by nature (but it is quite rare in your thirties) or parched at times. In both cases, the observation is the same:the hydrolipidic film is altered and there is a lack of lipids. As a result, it pulls and is uncomfortable.
Rehydrate the epidermis to plump up fine lines of dehydration and prevent longer lasting wrinkles from appearing.
We rely on hyaluronic acid:this active ingredient, naturally present in the epidermis, can capture 1,000 times its weight in water. Today, it is found in two forms:high molecular weight, the molecule is large and remains on the surface to plump up fine lines and act as a barrier to water evaporation; low molecular weight, it is smaller and binds to cell receptors to boost the production of hyaluronic acid by the epidermis. The must is to find a formula that combines the two molecular weights, to act on the surface and in depth. Good point also for nourishing oils such as argan or corn germ, which boost the barrier function of the skin (to limit water loss) and revive the synthesis of ceramides.
